is there any reason to "trim" a switch game? Im just curious if there are any benefits aside from making the file size smaller.
Are there downsides to this?

Quick question regarding loading backups, Firmware Version and the SX pro. Bottomline I'd like a physical cart collection for my main switch and a digital collection for my hacked switch. My question is, How would backup loading work for future games if those games always require higher firmware versions? Should I just recklessly update my hacked switch to keep pace with newer backups or will that compromise my ability to run emulators on the hacked switch as well?
can you update games without being in the latest firmware?
The leaked DevMenu app can install game updates.Not that I'm aware of
FAT32 if you are willing to split XCI files bigger than 4 GB into multiple parts. exFAT if you don't want to split XCI files bigger than 4 GB. However, your console will update to the latest firmware in order to use an exFAT formatted card if you have not already downloaded it prior (by inserting an exFAT formatted card prior). There are 2 guides you can follow to get exFAT working without updating the Switch:for SX PRO and 200GB microSD: How should I format the microSD? FAT32 or EXFAT? And is there a tool to format the SD correctly? I heard that formatting using the switch and Mac will cause problems! So, is there a good tool for windows maybe? thanks in advance!
Hekate supports exFAT. NAND dumping occurs in exFAT, not Horizon so your Switch does not need the exFAT update to dump the raw NAND.I'm on 2.3, I now know I can use hekate to dump my nand.
But does hekate support exfat (even though my switch's fw doesn't?)
Hekate is loaded before the switch os, so I wouldn't think it makes a difference what fw I am on.
I don't want to format my sd as fat32 if I don't have to.
Thanks
I know these have probably been asked, but I did search many Threads and found answers to some of my questions.
1) Will the Pro SX prompt me of doing a backup of my Nand before using it?
2) Should I use airplane mode or just turn off my Wi-Fi internet connection to the Switch, or does it require some Wi-Fi like the PS4 hack?
Thanks
Thanks you tooCorrect, from 4.X to 5.X, 1 fuse is burned
From 5.0.X to 5.1, no fuses are burned
Yes you just have to keep the activated license file on all of those SD cards.with the SX OS license is it possible to use multiple sd cards with one license?
awesome, thanks!Yes you just have to keep the activated license file on all of those SD cards.
Use ctcaer's hekate mod. https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate/releases/tag/v2.3

any tutorial? or it can just download straight from eshop?The leaked DevMenu app can install game updates.
Sadly, there is no tutorial on GBATemp on how to use it to install updates but it has been reported. Also, it works similarly to FBI for the 3DS. DevMenu is a title manager that installs, well, titles. It does not download anything from Nintendo's servers.any tutorial? or it can just download straight from eshop?
that's what I thought judging by the nameSadly, there is no tutorial on GBATemp on how to use it to install updates but it has been reported. Also, it works similarly to FBI for the 3DS. DevMenu is a title manager that installs, well, titles. It does not download anything from Nintendo's servers.
There also may be dumped game updates spread on the Internet. We have a way of dumping them after all.that's what I thought judging by the name
just need to find a way to download updates from CDN then
thanks
