Frequently Asked Questions

What is an MD5 checksum and why should I verify it?

MD5 is a fingerprint of a file. After downloading a firmware, compute its MD5 and compare it with the value listed here. If they match, your download is intact.

How can I verify a download?

Use our dedicated verification page at /verify.html (supports MD5 and SHA-256). You can also verify via your OS tools (e.g., md5sum, shasum -a 256, or PowerShell’s Get-FileHash).

Is this an official Nintendo website?

No. This is an independent archive that lists firmware versions and their checksums for convenience.

What is the newest firmware?

The newest firmware is highlighted at the top of the page with a Newest badge.
