Hi, I have access to a paid shop but have 2 Nintendos. This shop decided after a while that the “licenses” changed from being able to use on 2 devices to just 1.

Now it’s hard to keep mine and my SO’s Nintendos games on the same version…

I was wondering if I could host them on my pc somehow and create an eshops connection just like a normal shop. Then I could download the games from the paid shop, somehow pull them from the switch to the server and there it is. The other switch just has to connect and update.

Is something like this possible? (sorry if the text is all over the place, it’s late and I ran out of ADHD meds 🙃. Hope you were still able to decipher what I meant)

    That makes no sense, Tinfoil doesn’t install games differently. You should definitely be able to dump games off the switch using DBI. Anyway, test the files you dumped with NSC_Builder to confirm they can be decrypted fine and have intact signatures.

    https://github.com/julesontheroad/NSC_BUILDER

    Simply download the app, extract to your PC. Copy the prod.keys in /switch on your SD to NSC_Builder’s ztools folder. Rename prod.keys to keys.txt in the ztools folder. Run NSCB.exe, then select 1 for individual processing, and drag on your nsp. Then 1 to start processing, 8 to verify files, and select 3 for full Integrity+Sig1+Hash verification. That way you can confirm that your dump is intact and functional.

    Anyway, not sure about the store since I don’t currently run any Tinfoil Shops myself.
