Nintendo Switch firmware has been updated to V6.1.0 recently, can SX Pro, R4s Dongle, AceNS still work and which is the best Switch modchip to buy for hacking 6.1.0 Switch firmware console? We are writing this post to give you answer.

SX Pro and Nintendo Switch firmware 6.1.0

SX Pro or Xecuter SX Pro, it still works on the Nintendo Switch with the latest firmware 6.1.0. Why? Reason is so simple, because the SX OS it supports running on Nintendo Switch are fully compatible with every Switch firmware versions. So the SX Pro can work on V6.1.0, V6.2.0 and V6.X.O without doubt.
What SX Pro can do on Switch firmare V6.1.0?
  1. Play Nintendo Switch free games in the form of .XCI and .NSP, nearly every Switch game can be played on SX OS for free.
  2. Play Homebrew apps, tools, games on the Switch, even the .NSP homebrew can be installed on it as well.
  3. Support USB device working with the Nintendo Switch, users can play games directly from a external HDD or any USB mass storage device.
  4. Support Emunand on the Switch, users can play the newest games on the V6.1.0 Switch Emunand but keeping the Original firmware version lower.
  5. Allows Cheats for playing games, uses can take advantages of many cheats code for passing the hard levesl of certain Switch games.

R4s Dongle and Nintendo Switch firmware 6.1.0

R4s Dongle, the Unique Switch modchip from the R4 3DS card team, R4i-sdhc.com. It has the great Switch firmware compatibility too, because the official site says it works on all Nintendo Switch system versions. However, in theory, the R4s dongle can work on Switch V6.1.0, but we should wait for a new R4s dongle firmware updated for V6.1.0, the current R4s dongle firmware are supporting the V6.0.0 and V6.0.1.
In short, currently, don't udpate your Switch firmware V6.1.0, if you are the R4s dongle users.

AceNS and Nintendo Switch firmware 6.1.0 

AceNS or AceNS launcher, this is the Switch modchip comes from Ace3ds.com, which releases the Ace3ds plus and Ace3ds x for hacking the NDS and 3DS handhelds. Can the AceNS work on Nintendo Switch V6.1.0? The answer is Yes, AceNS is what we used to boot SX OS/Atmosphere/ReiNX or any other CFW on the Nintendo Switch, as long as the custom firmware supports V6.1.0, the AceNS is compatible with the firmware too.
What AceNS can do on Switch firmare V6.1.0
  1. Comes with 3 Built-in payloads, users can switch from ATMOSPHERE, REINX and SX OS easily by pressing button.
  2. Boot SX OS on Switch to play free games in .XCI and .NSP format and enjoy all other functions of SX OS V2.1(SX OS code reguired).
  3. Boot Atmosphere or ReiNX on Switch console to play .NSP games, run homebrews and enjoy all other features of them.
  4. AceNS can supports payload.bin directly, Maximum up to 6 payload.

SX Pro VS R4s Dongle VS AceNS, which is the best Switch modchip to buy for hacking firmware 6.1.0?

First to see their differences
SX Pro is a dongle which has the SX payload,license & TX CFW inbedded and from the SX bootmenu can chainload any other payload. It uses capacitors, charges in 5-10 seconds, good for a few injects. Retains the charge for a week or two. 

R4S Dongle is allowing the use of different payloads on Nintendo Switch without restrictions&AceNS can hold up to 3 payloads(SX OS, Atmosphere and ReiNX) at once changeable with a touch of a button on the dongle.

However, the R4s dongle uses uf2 files. It means the .bin payloads have to be converted to .uf2 first. Usually, when a new payload is released (e.g. a new version of Hekate), you have to wait for someone to convert it to .uf2 first then you can use it via the R4s dongle. More difficult to use.

RCMLoader/XKit/AceNS: CANNOT HOLD A CHARGE. Even after charging to "full", it will lose its charge in less than an hour, and be completely dead. Trash capacitors. An AutoRCM Switch tht has crashed CANNOT recharge it.

So, which is the best Switch modchip to buy for firmware V6.1.0?
Withou any doubt, the best Switch modchip for 6.1.0 firmware is the Xecuter SX Pro. It supports the most powerful SX OS CFW without needing to buy any extra, it is much smaller and lighter than any other mod chips and it is working with the solid bulit&capacitors. So if you want to hack the Nintendo Switch 6.1.0 firmware, just buy the SX Pro modchip.
