A homebrew application that allows you to transfer files between your Nintendo Switch and computer, no WiFi or rebooting required. '''Note:''' This is just a pre-MVP build that implements basic file pushing and pulling to/from the Switch. It is slow and not guaranteed to not screw up transfers. ==Installation== Nx-USB is composed of 2 parts: * A "server" component that runs on the Switch, called nxusb_server.nro. * A "client" component that runs each command on the computer. To install, grab a copy of nxusb_server.nro. This can either be done by building it yourself, or just by downloading it from the [https://github.com/ischeinkman/Nx-Usb/releases releases page]. Make sure that you have gotten nxusb_server.nro on to your Switch somewhere where it can be ran from. Find a valid client, which at this point is only possible by downloading Rust and building it yourself via <code>cargo build -p client</code>. At the moment, the client executable is just called <code>client</code>, so that is what we will be using to refer to it here. ==User guide== Connect the Switch to the computer via USB. Run nxusb_server.nro on the Switch. Use the client to transfer files between the computer and the switch: To "push" a file TO the Switch FROM the computer, use <code>./client --push [NEW PATH ON SWITCH] [EXISTING FILE ON COMPUTER]</code>. To "pull" a file FROM the Switch TO the computer, use <code>./client --pull [EXISTING FILE ON SWITCH] [NEW PATH ON COMPUTER]</code>. ==Changelog== '''Version 0.1.0 (Initial Proof-of-Concept)''' *Slowly transfers files a kilobyte at a time between the Switch and computer. *Supports pulling a file from the Switch's SD card or pushing a file to the Switch's SD card. *UNTESTED whether it can even TOUCH any other file system; don't try if you don't want a possible brick. *WAY to many debug statements. == External links == * GBAtemp - https://gbatemp.net/threads/nx-usb.523122/ * GitHub - https://github.com/ischeinkman/Nx-Usb
