Hi all. Please bear with me.
I purchased a modded switch a few months back. You can have it on a normal account to play online and use the Nintendo store, and then I use the jig to dump the little program that switches it to Atmosphere and then I can obtain all the other stuff I have on the system. Managed to find my way around adding bits etc. Atmosphere was on 17.0.
Then of course a couple of months back the switch update to 18.0 came out and I was getting confused with what to do, so I did nothing until the proper fix came. Now i've found a video online which goes through what to do to update the CFW to 18.0. I explained my situation in the comments (as I don;t want to update the official firmware and then block the account or whatever) and he said just follow the video and you'll be fine. On another comment on the video however, someone else asked that if they didn't want to update the CFW and just update the official system to 18.0 could he do this, and the answer was yes. I asked him so if I just wanted to update the official system to play online and leave the CFW as is, wouldn't that then disrupt the custom firmware or ban the system, and he said no. if I have emummc it's seperate from sysmmc and i can update, play online and update the games no problem.
Now before I do it, is this correct? I didn't want to block up his comment feed with all my questions so thought coming here may be the bext option.
And how do I know if I have emummc on the system? I imagine I would, right, as the guy I bought it from said it wouldn't connect to nintendo's servers etc, but I want to make sure before I update. I am on the last dungeon on link to the past and the last fight in breath of the wild and don't want to restart them if I can just update the official firmware and have done with it. Thanks in advance.
