Hello all,
I stumbled upon the invention of this miracle about a week ago and have been doing my best to understand all the lingo, abbreviations and whatnot but still have a few questions about the process and all.
First and foremost I would like to extend my deepest thanks and appreciation to the Xecuter team for their time, effort, and skill into this product.
Next, I have two switches, I plan on keeping one legal lol and hacking the other, my legal one will be my let's go Pikachu and Eevee system as it was released in November 2018 and I know for sure it is patched according to the chart provided, but the one I plan on hacking starts with XAW4000 which according to the chart is not patched and can be hacked. If anyone can be so kind to confirm.?
I also plan on having my main Nintendo account on both systems, will I be ok to play online with my account on the legal switch even if I utilize the account on the hacked one offline of course? Like it will not put my account on jeapordy.? I ask because I have spent a lot of money on games in my account and do not wanna put it in jeapordy. Or should I make a second fluke account?
As far as the sd card goes I saw that it is best to utilize the exfat format, is there a size limitation or I can use any size?
And lastly, if anyone would be kind enough to explain what Homebrew is and how emulators work and what a custom firmware is, I know the basics but would like a little more in depth explanation.
I'm sorry for the long post I just want to make sure I do this correctly, I have unfortunately updated to 7.0 so I'm fine waiting till that's hacked and ready to go, while I wait I want to do my research and prepare to Xecute with my Xecutor SX Pro and OS ? lol I know lame thought I'd throw that in there for anyone still reading.
I thank any responders in advance and appreciate you all!!!

-your serial number should be hackeable.
-like the admin said a second account sounds the way to go(dont know much about it)
-sd card i have used as large as 256gb no problem as far as it is good quality high speed and exfat is the the best format.
-for definition on Homebrew WIKI is your friend, on Emulators it all depends on wich one you seek, but AFAIK retroarch covers most of them(google would give you details)
