JKSV VS Checkpoint

Installed JKSV saves manager on the hacked switch and backed up all of the saves on the switch. Make sure to save a copy of these game backups in case anything goes wrong. JKSV created folders for each of the games on the SD card.

Assuming you have both of them homebrewed (PC/Linux program to convert Wii U <-> Switch BOTW saves) https://github.com/DeltaJordan/BotW-Save-Manager (Switch homebrew app for exporting/importing/backup game saves) https://github.com/J-D-K/JKSV Use JKSV to import the save into the game once you got the save converted and onto the sd card in your switch. I don’t know how to get the save from the Wii U though, that you’ll have to research.

This reentry guide section has steps for migrating, since it migrates your SX OS EmuNAND over if you have one and your SysNAND is completely unaffected by the change in CFW, I'd presume that moving saves would be unneeded, however if you want to be on the safer side, you can always back up your saves using JKSV or another save backup tool of your choice.

I saw a post on this sub reddit where they posted a link yo the save manager. I just redownloaded it and replaced the file. Heres the link; JKSV save manager

I personally use JKSV, which is something you run on the Switch to dump your saves to the SD card so you can extract it using either DBI or just through the Hekate payload's USB tools

The way I do it is by installing this program. The 3ds homebrew website (found here) has a very easy-to-follow guide on how to install the program if you haven't got it already. Once you are inside of the program it's very easy to understand what to do - I think you just press A to make a new backup and Y to restore and existing one, or something like that.

I can't remember if this specific method also copies your save game for you, so if the save game doesn't appear on the digital copy, you can use Checkpoint or JKSM to copy your save game from the cartridge to the installed version. You won't lost your save data.

For DS/3DS, you can use Checkpoint on a 3DS to backup saves from carts.

3DS with CFW, using the Checkpoint homebrew. You want the .cia version. DS cartridges sometimes take up to 20 seconds to appear, but always show up at the top left of the icon grid. Backup and restore behave exactly how they do for 3DS games. This is the best and easiest way, do it if you can.

On a 3DS with official carts you can use [Checkpoint](https://github.com/BernardoGiordano/Checkpoint) to back up *and restore* your DS & 3DS saves.

If you have a hackable switch that will get you going in the right direction. Then you need to use Checkpoint to dump the saves.

To get checkpoint, go here and download the cia file. Put it somewhere on your sd card (it doesn’t matter where as long as you remember where it is) and then open FBI on your console. Click SD and from there find where you put the file. When you get to it press A and select “install an delete cia.” This will install it your home menu and then delete the cia so it doesn’t clutter your sd card (once it’s installed the cia isn’t needed).

After that, Checkpoint is the save file backup software they mentioned.

I assume based on your cfw comments you already backup your ds/3ds games, but for anyone googling or searching this reddit in the future... TWLSaveTool can backup your DS games. 3ds has Checkpoint or JKSM. You need homebrew or a cfw 3ds for these.

If you have a modded 3DS you can install checkpoint, an app that lets you back up your saves from games. Use it to back up your pokemon games' saves and you can edit them on a PC with PKHex. In PKHex you can load up a save and save the individual pokemon (or entire boxes) as .pk# files (the # corresponds to the generation of the game). From there you can load you .pk# files into the next game.
