Appearently the latest Mario Party update is the first game update to require fw 7.x and cannot be bypassed by any homebrew.

So appearently Yoshi would be the first game to require fw 7.x; do you know if there are other games like that ?

It's a big deal because there are homebrews that are not working properly on 7.x

It's not a big deal - if you have SXOS you can dual boot, you can have emunand on 6.20 and O/F on 7.01 - and choose whether to boot into emunand/CFW without emunand or O/F. You can even have Atmosphere + SXOS and choose between them at boot time.
It's only a big deal to you - because of your lack of knowledge of what you can do with your switch.

So you can choose to only update emunnand and still use 6.2 cfw ?

SX OS Emunand supports 7.0.1...

Yes, I'm very much aware of that - however if you want both 6.20 on your device so you can use homebrew that supports it, and you also want to use 7.01 for new games + online features - you need to have one firmware on 6.20 and one firmware on 7.01 (unless you patch your games). Try reading the posts before you made yours, so you have some idea of what the OP wants.

You don't even know from the OP if he wants to play Mario Party on CFW or OFW...

If you can't/don't understand what I've written - Switch modding is above your skill level. Give your switch to someone else to mod for you, try reading a few forum posts and get yourself acquainted with what's possible and what's not.

You're so useless dude, stop posting now.

Why does having a discussion ends up like having a fight with those people...

So you need to update your EmuNAND with ChoiDujourNX to 7.0.1 if you have the game on CFW. The disadvantage is that, like you mentioned, some homebrew don't work with 7.0.0+ yet.
Ok thank you for your clear answer, I know what to do know :)

Depends on what you want. If you really "need" that update for Mario Party than update your EmuNAND to 7.0.1. But check if all homebrew application which you are using works with 7.0.1 before. I would stay on 6.2.0 if you don't "need" it but that's what you need to decide.
