INSTALLED A GAME ON SYSMMC BY MISTAKE… CAN IT BE SAVED?

In this video, I accidentally installed a game to SysMMC instead of EmuMMC using DBI. For most Nintendo Switch modders, that’s one of those mistakes you never want to make.

Fortunately, if you’re using the HATS Pack, there is a recovery path available.

In this guide, I’ll show you how to use the Wipe SysMMC feature included in HATS-Tools, how to safely recover from accidental SysMMC contamination, how to verify connectivity to Nintendo’s services afterward, and why this method is fundamentally different from older cleanup approaches.

We’ll also take a look at the research behind the feature, including Factory-Refurbishment-NX by HunterMario, information shared by SciresM regarding firmware 17.0.0 save management changes, and Nintendo’s own refurbishment process.

⚠️ IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER

This is NOT an unban tool.

If your console has already been banned by Nintendo, this process will not remove or reverse that ban.

This feature is intended to help recover from accidental SysMMC contamination before a ban occurs.
