Found smash/totk on fitgirl repacks but it uses yuzu which requires a switch. Not spending 300 on an ageing console atp, is there any workaround?

In what way does yuzu require a Switch? That hasn’t been my experience.

yuzu requires keys which you’re supposed to officially dump from your own console. you can just pirate them.

just reading off their site: Prerequisites A hackable Nintendo Switch console (preferably a model that is vulnerable to the fusée-gelée exploit). Visit Is My Switch Patched? to check if your console is not patched. A microSD card with at least 32 GB of storage capacity. 64 GB or higher is recommended. A USB-C to USB-A or USB-C to USB-C cable to connect your Switch to your computer.

They say that because it’s the only legal method.

Fitgirl’s repacks already contain the necessary files. These steps are unnecessary. There are also alternative ways of sourcing the files. :)

ok, thank you, can I also ask for the general idea of where to find these?

This prod site has everything you need besides the rom

If you just want to play one game, Fitgirl’s repacks are by far the easiest way, because she does all the setting-up for you. But if you want to play multiple games, you should be able to get them from the same places you get your NSPs. prod.keys and title.keys - I got mine from https://rentry.org/128bbkeys.

sadly I think that post has been deleted :/

Fixed. Also could’ve copied the text of the link to your URL bar. :)

this was off one of the repos (am I allowed to paste base links here?)

ohh, thank you, didn’t try that

ok, thank you, I want to play multiple so that’s perfect

it’s just because if they write “just download this torrent full of nintendo copyrighted stuff and it will be done in one click”, they’ll be sued to oblivion

That’s just something they say because they love Nintendo’s dick in their mouth.

yeah, thought so, got banned off their discord for even hinting at the prospect of piracy smh

They’re just protecting themselves; Nintendo’s legal team is infamously tenacious and expensive to defend against, so yuzu can’t give them the slightest indication they support the real day-to-day use case of their software.

They dance so we can sail.

You definitely can! I’m using Yuzu on Linux with an jurassic 1050Ti and it works perfectly. I basically play Mario Kart 8 and BotW (for now, TotK in the queue) and never touched an actual Switch in person (seriously! I’m Brazilian and these things are hell expensive here).

You should switch to CEMU for BotW realistically, it runs much better and the emulator is more mature

Might be hard if you’re already far in the game, but I’d give it a try nonetheless

yeah I get that, 300+ for something you’re using for maybe 2 games makes no sense

I don’t want to spend 400 and more just to play miitopia 😭

It’s pretty easy to do, especially on the steamdeck

I want to support this. SteamDeck is amazing with enulation. Is it perfect? No! Occasional glitches and graphics issues, but a really handy and easy option.

If you want to play the breath of the wild, it will run much better on the Wii emulator - Cemu. Also super easy to setup and you can find prepackaged on fit girl.

Definitely possible. I was just playing Smash Ultimate with some coworkers on my laptop during lunch break.

You don’t require a switch to use yuzu. You only require the keys and firmware which you also can get elsewhere.

i think can help you this site update Yuzu Prod

Yuzu doesn’t require a switch. You just need a switch it to dump decription keys but you can find them online pretty easily The file are called prod.key

You just need the prod keys, title keys and firmware. You can download all of them.

But don’t use the fitgirl rips, find the xci files directly.
