(Sorry about the smudges, it's the screen protector)
I've had my switch modded for like 2 years, I have been updating in this order almost every time:
hekate -> atmosphere and fusee -> sigpatches -> OFW through Nintendo's servers on OFW (don't care for efuses)

I'm currently on atmosphere 1.7.0 and hekate 6.1.1 and I'm about to update OFW from 17.0.1 to 18.0.0. Now on my atmosphere system settings screen I can read "Current version: 14.1.2" which I don't know if it's correct or not. I can run almost every recent game (even Princess Peach) with no issues, except for Sea of Stars, Sonic Origins Plus, Mario Wonder (off the top of my head), which I've downloaded from several sources to no avail. Am I doing anything wrong?

looks like your getting confused between emunand and sysnand. the pic you posted is you on your emunand
Turns out all this time I thought updating your CFW meant updating Atmosphere. I read in a couple sites that using daybreak was just an option to update your OFW without burning efuses, and since I don't care about downgrading I never read more about it.

Source firmware from darthsternie and update via daybreak
That did the trick, thanks a lot!

    Not sure if it would behoove me, mines that B model with 8GBs of RAM got mine OCed to 2GHz and the only two games I found that might work better N64 Killer Instinct and PSP Motor Storm Arctic Thunder
