    Just updated Atmosphere 1.2.6 and Firmware to 13.2.1. Splatoon 2 works fine as always, but I can't add the Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion DLC.nsp. If I install (using dbibackend) I get a program square that just has a spinning circle. Does it require internet access? I have never connected this...

    Hacking JoyCons only work when attached

    Got an early Switch that uses SXOS and dongle. Lately, the JoyCons are finicky and will only work when attached to the console. If I remove them, they do not work and can't sync. Any ideas on a solution short of buying new ones?

    Gaming Can Switch play SNES if not ever online?

    I have a Switch that's never gone online (no account) with the SX OS. I once tried playing but it wanted to connect online to play. Is it possible to play Super Nintendo Entertainment System games on it without connecting to the internet? If so, could you explain how to do it?

    Hacking How do I split an nsp file for fat32?

    I have an nps file that I need to install onto a fat32 card. The program XCI-cutter.exe won't work because it is an nsp file. But it is larger than the 4 gig limit for a fat 32. How do I get the 6 gig nsp file onto the fat32 card so it can be read.

    Hacking Can Amiibos work with SX OS?

    I have an early Switch that runs SX OS with the dongle. I have the Switch updated to 7.1 OS. I purchased an Amiibo (purple coin finder) for Super Mario Odyssey but it doesn't seem to work as the instructions show. Do these work with SX CFW, or does it need newer OS than 7.1? Thanks!
