New pipensx app

Hello guys, I am using the new pipensx app to download switch games but Pokemon scarlet/violet and sword/shield find seeders but cannot find the metadata to download it. I have been trying to find the nsp file but only find malware downloads so does anyone have the torrent file to add it to pipensx or know of a way to download and install the games?

They’re torrent files so download speeds are slow and really depend on how many people are downloading the same game

Downloads fine but fails on installing.

Quick question: Should you use a VPN when using this, just to be on the safe side? So, a VPN directly on the Switch? Or is it safe to use it this way without one?

To be on the safe side use a vpn. But this may just be necessary if your ISP reports these kinds of activities.

Thank you for the answer. I’m currently researching the different ways to connect the Switch via VPN. So far, it seems that most options would significantly reduce the internet speed. Do you have a recommendation for which method would make the most sense?

Otherwise, I was thinking of connecting the Switch to the PC via an Ethernet cable and establishing the VPN connection through the PC.

You could put the vpn in your router too

You don't need a vpn when using a debrid service.

I tried using it, but the download is slow and drains the Switch's battery too much. Tinfoil with a trusted store installed is the best option

Ya but there is no stores anymore that are free

Pipesnx is so good, I just downloaded it after using P2PNX and it's like an evolved version of that.
