- Sword/Shield V.1.1 codes Deluxe
- Let’s Go! Pikachu and Eevee cheats
Where do I place the cheat codes?
For SX OS users, cheats are stored in:
|
1 |
msd://sxos/titles/<title_id>/cheats/<build_id>.txt |
For Atmosphere users, cheats are stored in:
|
1 |
msd://atmosphere/titles/<title_id>/cheats/<build_id>.txt |
Note: If the game updates, that ID will probably change, so your cheats will stop working. You will need to update your cheats/Build ID with every update or use Switch Cheats Updater above.
