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)

    Okay, DBI is way more useful than I thought lmao I think I have everything I need to make my own in-house store… more like a synching server haha

    I just having quite understood yet how to get updates on my store. When I dump the game will I get a game file and separate update files?

    I’ll read more on it though. Haven’t had the chance to go through your guide yet.

    Thanka again!

      When you dump the game, you will have a base, update, and DLCs.

      For example:

      Mario Kart 8(v0)(base).nsp

      Mario Kart 8(v65536)(update).nsp

      Mario Kart 8(v65536)(dlc).nsp

      Then you can host those files on the shop, and any shop users will be able to grab the base, updates, and any dlc.
