What's On My Modded Switch OLED!? 2024

[@-dmm]

just got my switch modded after not using it for some months and now I use it daily. I love it. I didn't get OLED modded as it's lil bit expensive but I have a V2 and got that done. Everything is perfect. Didn't think I would be using my switch this much.

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

I felt the exact same way! My switch was only a Zelda machine for the longest time. Once I started to put retro emulators on it I played it all the time

[@ericthomas2388]

My favorite aspects of owning a modded Switch is the ability to install mods/cheats, and overclock it for more performance. For some reason, so many games run at less than 720p in handheld mode. It looks terrible, and they also insist on slapping a blurry AA methods, dynamic resolutions and other crap upscaling technologies on top as well; like FXAA and FSR. There are tons of fan made patches to push the games at the perfectly scaled 720p/1080p, and remove all that extra junk. Then, you can overclock the Switch to re-achieve a stable 30fps again. For example, Persona 5 Royal. You can install the resolution mod, without overclocking and it runs perfectly stable. It's nonsensical of these developers.

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

I agree 100% A franchise like Pokemon, for example, shouldn't be YEARS behind in graphical fidelity and performance. It's literally the highest grossing media franchise on the planet.. the Switch may be "last-gen" at this point, but it's fully capable of running games that are way more demanding than Pokemon. Hogwarts Legacy and TotK come to mind immediately. 🙄

This is so awesome. I just sent my spare Splatoon 3 LE Switch OLED out to get a modchip installed. I have multiple 1.5 TB microSD full of digital games Ive purchased. So I dont need to pirate any games. But I wanted the ability to overclock, install mods, use the NSO emulators for all my own roms, use save backups and custom themes, etc. Ironing out performance in games with unlocked framerates looks awesome (Monster Hunter Stories 2, Trials Rising, Trails of Cold Steel games, Zelda BotW, Xenoblade 2, etc). I heard theres a mod for Persona 5 Royal that increases resolution even without overclocking. Hopefully theres a mod for Xenoblade 1/2 that increases max resolution in handheld to 720p so overclocking can push the res to native. I love that Emuiibo app too. I own every amiibo ever made so having them all digitally to access on the spot seems clutch. I cant wait to get my modded OLED back in the mail!!!

Yup, emuNAND games can ofc still be updated. Just not through Nintendo. You'll have to either source your updates from online, or dump your own backed up update NSPs. No, never use any mods, homebrew, or custom firmware on sysNAND. Unless you don't care if your switch gets banned. Again, don't add anything like that to sysNAND.

I predict that the prices will go down quite a bit this next year due to a new switch coming (allegedly)

[@rodrigogonzalez9657]

What mod did you use for the switch? And is the a website you get all the apps for that you like?

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

Like, which mod chip? It's a V6 Instinct As far as the plugins go, they usually have their own individual GitHub pages

[@zeroxx131]

Just got my switch jailbroken and this video is awesome. For the nso - do you have a tutorial or can you point me in the right direction for adding games (I have my own I just need to find out how to hook them up to the service)? And thank you

Sure thing! Here's how I did it darkakuma.z-net.us/p/cave-database-manager.html?m=1

[@Meckleys]

I'm getting my OLED modded as well, what are some precautions to keep in mind to reduce the risk of getting banned?

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

Check out the link here to prevent a ban: reddit.com/r/SwitchPirates/w/index? Just check the about bans/preventing bans section. Essentially, you just want to create an emuNAND as soon as you get the console as well as setting up exosphere and dns mitm. Once that's done, you'll be safe. Just make sure to only use the emuNAND for anything cheats, hacks, piratey, etc. The sysNAND will be used for regular online play, updates, etc

[@Krishanator]

Should you have Nintendo Online purchased before you mod your OLED? Or can you buy it after?

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

Either way works

[@YagamiLightgodofjustice]

Hey was wondering if you could show how you downloaded some of the GBA titles like Final fantasy/ samurai jack etc

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

If you mean in the NSO app, I actually used a pack by eradicatinglove. But it's very simple to do on your own, just use Cavedatabase manager

Hello I’m new here this so cool nice video 👍. When you said you updated your switch to 17.0 did you update the Stock firmware and emu to 17.0 or just the stock firmware? Thanks again

Hey there! Yup, I updated stock and emuMMC to 17.0

intro goes hard

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

I always thought so too!

[@waterblade781]

When you go to play online is that sysnand or is that the stock firmware? Also how do you keep a theme on emunand only, my themes show on both, sysnand and emunand.

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

It's stock, so if you're seeing themes and stuff when you're not on emu, you're probably on sysmmc

[@saantomero5483]

Helpfull video. How do you change from EmuNAND to SysNAND that easy does everybody has that option with Hekate?

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

Glad to help! I just hold vol down when rebooting my console to launch into Hekate rather than my default (emuNAND). You won't have that option unless you partition your card to have a dual nand. Then once that's set up you can have it auto launch into whichever you prefer

[@keeskarel-wl9vw]

But is possible to mod saved games that ar little modded like not ultimate monyey but little more end give more gear. Or give pokemon that hard to get end spawn it end catch it? End is then possible then to have that modded save normal onnline site without bann?

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

Um... Hwhat?

[@keeskarel-wl9vw]

Sorry for this haha bad Eng here is translate. Is it possible to transfer slightly modded saved data to the non-modded side of the switch where you are on the online side, so not completely modded but light that is unrecognizable or is that still impossible to do until you get banned? ​@@sayianprincevegeta7969

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

Some would say it's a risk to use savefiles from a modded switch, while others would disagree. Best not to chance it if worried about a console ban

[@superman123xdxd]

So, you actually could run online games on a different sd partitition like the sysnand and emunand?

Yup, that's right 👍

I just followed the rentry guide here:rentry.org/AvoidSwitchBan It wasn't too bad and it was definitely worth doing 🔥

[@keepitshort4208]

I wanted to know where did you get the store from like github or all that you have on your switch is from the homebrew ? If not can you tell me the site. Would appreciate the guide

It's no longer available. They crop up and get taken down pretty regularly. I can't help find alternatives, but if you search hard enough you're likely to find what you're looking for

Hey @saiyanprincevegeta do you have a guide on how to convert the fat 32 sd card to exFat so i can store my switch games because I'm looking on KZbin and No one is talking about it at all

Usually, you'd have to reformat the card to change it from fat32 to exfat. This will delete all data on the card, so keep that in mind.

Any chance you could go through your melon ds settings? Can't seem to swap screens/ only touch screen works atm

MelonDS standalone does an auto controller config. To my knowledge, you can't rebind mappings in the app, and the defaults always just worked for me. Are you using a third party controller by chance?

It will look the exact same

I’m planning to mod my switch but I’m not sure how the storage works if I were to put all my modding stuff onto the sd card and then boot into the stock system would I be able to download games onto the sd card without any risk of getting banned or would I have to download them to my internal storage

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

If setup properly, your switch will have 2 partitions. An EmuNAND and a SysNAND. You'd have all of your modded stuff on the emuNAND. When you boot into stock you won't have any of the modded stuff there, but will be able to access eShop and everything like normal

[@allmoneyinnomoneyout2046]

What micro sd card brand you recommend getting, I’m looking for at least a 200gb or 1tb if possible.

I usually go with SanDisk Extreme. 1tb will be your best bet if you plan on having a large library

[@Nightlypython]

@sayianprincevegeta will you make tutorials on modding the switch and switch OLED?

Possibly, but the scene is constantly changing, and the method to mod varies slightly depending on what kind of Switch you have. But yeah, if there's enough interest, I'll definitely do that 😁👍

Quick question: with JKSV (or other apps) can I import my saves from the original Switch internal memory to the modded partition? I’d like to keep playing all my current games without have to reset the Switch to go from one firmware to another. Thanks.

Is there pokemon home available for pokemon games in emunand ? I was thinking of getting a complete shared save for one of them but am considering that if transferring pokemon would result in a ban

There's a program called cavedatabasemanager that'll allow you to pack your own roms into NSO on a modded switch. But I still recommend retroarch over that 👍

bro you think u could do a smash bros mod video on how you would get it running or hdr running online

[@sayianprincevegeta7969]

Modding smash is pretty easy once you have a hacked switch. You'll have to set up acropolis, then a mod staging folder, and you're gtg. The biggest issues always pop up after an update happens. It usually means you have to wait for your mods to be updated as well, so in some cases, it's better to not update at all. Just remember only some select mods are wifi safe, and almost never recommended
