Hello! I currently have a 1.0.0 switch sitting on my desk waiting for xecuter OS, but I'm afraid the wait to play the games I want will be quite a while based on two things I have seen in the FAQ.
Just for a reference, here is a link to a stickied post that lists all the switch games and their required firmware:
- Q: If a game runs natively on an OFW x.yy and above, can SX OS run the game even if the console has a lower firmware?
A: Currently no. We have added that request to our list of features to look into.
- Q: Does SX OS support Emunand?
A: Currently it doesn't. This is a feature we can add in the future, but it is low in the priority list because of the small interest to the general public. But because Xecuter SX is also used by advanced users, we will add Emunand support at some point.
Just for a reference, here is a link to a stickied post that lists all the switch games and their required firmware:
- Games required Firmware version
From that list, it looks like I'll just be playing Mario Kart for awhile. I already have Zelda BOTW with all DLC through CEMU, so playing without the DLC would be less than ideal. There are a few other games for 2.3 or lower that I'd probably play for some time, but the vast majority will require higher firmware.
I'm curious how many other people are out there on lower switch versions, and if this FAQ is tempting any lower firmware switch owners to update?
