By the way, what could XCI format mean? And NCA? XCI could be NX Cartridge Image, like CCI on 3DS, and that N in NCA could refer to NX. Any idea?

Actually, I've managed to find a website with links to lots of dumps, most of them named PROPER (yay, xcis incoming), and I'm going to download some of them now.

You know the Switch is related to another thing that starts with N...

True, but most of the extensions from different platforms usually have started with that platforms codename, like Nitro or CTR, or even RVL with the Wii. Why not this time?

Got Mario Odyssey, but it's an RAR. Thing is, it doesn't have the RAR header.

The first 16 bytes of the 5.08 GiB (0x145000001 byte) file are:
03 3E 08 4C 32 46 12 64 5A 7A 60 FB A8 D6 24 29

Not sure if it's an XCI that got renamed as an RAR, or if it's corrupted or encrypted. Can someone verify?

If you can't extract the xci from the rar file then you got goofed

Aw okay. Anyone know what the hash is for the right one? No link needed, I just wanna know what to search for, as there are some which have zero seeders, among other issues.

Yeah, any moron now can release game dumps, so relying on "scene dumps" these days is basically useless except for when they release keys.
