3. If you’re modding or using homebrew (legal, but risky)

  • You can dump your own cartridge’s update files using homebrew tools like NXDumpTool (requires a hacked Switch).
  • Emulators like Ryujinx or yuzu (now discontinued) legally require your own dumped game and update files.
  • Never download NSPs from torrents or file hosts – that’s piracy.

Detailed Patch Notes: What Changed in 13.0.3?

Despite being a small download size (approximately 75 MB compared to the massive 4 GB+ of earlier updates), version 13.0.3 plays a critical role. It does not add new fighters or stages. Instead, it fine-tunes the existing roster following the release of the final DLC character, Sora (from Kingdom Hearts). Super Smash Bros. Ultimate -NSP--Update 13.0.3-...

5. Competitive checklist (what players should do)

  1. Update your game only after confirming tournament requirements.
  2. Run training mode sessions for 30–60 minutes focusing on:
    • Your main’s confirms and kill percents vs common characters.
    • Any previously reliable setups that may have lost frames or hitboxes.
  3. Watch top players’ recent VODs to see emergent responses to small tweaks.
  4. Adjust neutral weights and punish routes where frame data changed.
  5. Keep an eye on patch-discussion threads for discovered tech or unintended regressions.
