Ensure you have the BASE NSP (usually around 6.5 GB). Avoid "trimmed" or "unsigned" XCIs that crash on firmware 17.0.0+.
Is the PS5 version prettier? Yes. Is the PC version moddable? Absolutely. But the Switch NSP 1.33 build is the best for a unique reason: Portability + Rollback.
With this configuration:
No other platform lets you grind ranked matches in a waiting room except the Switch, and no other Switch build is as responsive as 1.33.

At these clocks, Update 1.33 runs at a locked 1080p in handheld and 1440p in docked (via HDMI). The rollback netcode also benefits from the higher CPU headroom, reducing desync errors.
To replicate the best build on your Switch (AMS EmuNAND recommended):
