Transferring save data between two modded Switch OLEDs using Hekate/JKSV
Hi everyone,
I have two modded Nintendo Switch OLED consoles running Hekate + Atmosphere, both using microSD cards and booting into CFW/emuMMC.
I’m trying to transfer my game progress/save data from the first modded Switch to the second one, specifically for games installed and played in modded mode (CFW environment).
My understanding is that the process should be:
Use JKSV on Switch #1 to back up the saves
Copy the JKSV backup folder to the second microSD
Restore the save on Switch #2 using JKSV
A few questions before I do it:
Does this work normally for games played entirely in emuMMC?
Do both consoles need the exact same game version/update/DLC?
Does the target Switch need the game launched once before restoring the save?
Any issues if the local user profile names are different?
Has anyone done this successfully between two OLED consoles running Atmosphere/Hekate?
TIA!
