Switch info
While bans are no longer a concern for "legacy" consoles, they are very much possible on the Nintendo Switch.
Avoid using an MMC Rebuild for cleaning purposes; instead, use TegraExplorer’s "System Wipe" script to clean the firmware.

If your goal is to:
- Get your system as clean as possible
- Uninstall homebrew
- Unmod the console without a NAND backup
DO NOT use an MMC Rebuild! Instead, join the Nintendo Homebrew Discord server.
