 | This page is a work in progress. |
Finally got homebrew / custom firmware on your Switch? Here's a list of common things you can do with it.
Most, if not all of the homebrew listed should be on hbappstore (Homebrew App Store)
Custom firmware basics
Custom firmware has a bunch of useful settings and menus, see how to use them here!
Customization
● Custom themes - a way of adding some more personality to your home menu
Emulation
Later on, this section will probably be turned into a standalone page.

Standalone emulators not a complete list, just a quick overview:
● mGBA - Game Boy Advance
● Snes9x - SNES
● NooDS - DS
● pNES - NES

Game mods, save editing, cheats
● JKSV - save manager, actively maintained
● Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl
● EdiZon - cheats. Don't use online, you will be ruining the experience of other players and they will get you banned.
Extras

● Switchroot Android - install Android on your Switch
● Switchroot Linux - install Linux on your Switch
● sys-clk - safe overclocking tool. Only use the official version of sys-clk, any modification that remove the limits are dangerous and should be avoided.

● FTPD - a way to transfer files from and to your SD card wirelessly via FTP
● Dumping games - so you can install eShop games to the home menu, dump the game to your PC for use in emulators, and dump the RomFS of a game for modding
