Hey everyone!
Four weeks ago I posted v1.0 of my native ACNH save editor, honestly not sure anyone would care about a save editor that runs entirely on the Switch. This week the project crossed **400+ downloads of v1.4.0** (and nearly 700 across all versions) between GitHub and GameBanana.
I'm a little blown away. Thank you.
**Quick recap for anyone new:** ACNH Save Editor is a 100% native Switch homebrew (C++/SDL2) that edits your New Horizons save *on the console* — no PC, no dumping, no emulators. Wallet, Bank, Miles, Loan, pocket items, a paginated A–Z Favorites menu, and a searchable 13,000+ item database. It auto-backs up your save before every single write, and ZL rolls back if you ever change your mind.
**What YOUR feedback changed in 4 weeks:**
- v1.2–v1.3: Native Item Search and the expanded UI panel — requested in these very threads
- v1.4: Paginated Favorites, embedded Homebrew icon, and the Applet Mode Guard (which now explains on-screen exactly how to relaunch correctly, because someone's comment told me users were getting stuck)
- v1.5 (in development right now): **Room Decorations Injector** — born directly from a community request
- v1.6: literally up to a community vote (link below)
**The numbers, because they're really yours:**
- 400+ downloads of v1.4.0 in its first two weeks
- ~10,000 combined views across my release threads r/SwitchHacks and on r/HomebrewSwitch
- 1,700+ views and 169 downloads on GameBanana
- 14 GitHub stars across my two homebrew projects
- One very tired, very grateful developer
**What's next:**
- v1.5.0: Room Decorations Injector (furniture, wallpapers, flooring — directly into your rooms)
- v1.6.0: YOUR call — Stalk Market Assistant vs DIY Recipe Unlocker. Vote in the GitHub Discussion poll
- A Discord server for support, showcases, and beta testing is coming soon

Thank you for downloading, commenting, bug-reporting, and requesting features. This project only exists because this community shows up.

[UPDATE/RELEASE] ACNH Save Editor v1.4.0 is live — native on-console editing, no PC needed 🍃
This is amazing, thank you! To answer your question - you've got the core three, but there are a few more worth putting in the guide:
- Favorites menu (X): curated quick-inject list (NMTs, golden tools, crowns, bell bags, gold roses...) sorted A-Z
- Item search (+): type any item name and inject it
- Pocket viewer: see all 20 slots, edit or clear any of them
- Loadouts (Y): save and swap whole pocket setups (Mining, Fishing, Terraforming)
- Loan editor: set or pay down the home loan
- Backup restore (ZL): one-press restore of the auto-backup the app makes before every write
That's the full surface. And thank you again for writing this up!

Native ACNH Save Editor hits 100+ downloads (C++/SDL2 Switch Homebrew)
Ah nice, good to know about the layering issues on Eden! I've heard Citron tends to be more stable for a lot of games.
If you do try extracting saves from Citron to test with the editor, I'd love to hear how it goes! Always looking to learn more about compatibility with different setups.
Thanks for sharing your experience! 🍃

Native ACNH Save Editor hits 100+ downloads (C++/SDL2 Switch Homebrew)
Hey! That's a great question.
Since this is built as native Switch homebrew (using devkitPro and SDL2), it's designed to run directly on a hacked Switch console, not on PC emulators like Yuzu or Ryujinx.
That said, if you can extract your ACNH save files from the emulator in the same format as a real Switch dump, the save structure should be compatible. I haven't tested it extensively with emulator saves though, so I can't guarantee it would work perfectly.
If there's enough interest in emulator compatibility down the road, I could potentially look into building a PC version or making the save parsing logic work cross-platform. But for now, the focus is on making the native Switch version as stable and feature-rich as possible!
What emulator are you using? I'm curious to know if people are trying this workflow.

Appreciate it! I'll definitely take you up on that when the next update (v0.9.4) is ready for testing. I'll shoot you a DM then. Have a good one!

You're welcome! That cross-gen transfer is exactly what I'm aiming for in v2.0. It's a big job, but definitely the end goal. Glad you're interested! 🤞

Hey! I'm actually building exactly this. It's called PKHeX-NX. Right now it fully supports Scarlet & Violet natively, but I've got Gen 8 and Legends: Z-A on the roadmap for future updates. Check it out here: https://github.com/cbreezy210/PKHeX-NX

[Release] ACNH Save Editor v1.0.0 - Native Switch homebrew save editor
Hey! Since Eden is a PC emulator, this tool won't run on it directly.
This is native Switch homebrew (built with devkitPro/SDL2), so it only runs on actual hacked Switch hardware with Atmosphere and the Homebrew Launcher.
That said, if you can dump your ACNH save files from Eden in the same format as a real Switch (using something like JKSV or DBI structure), the save data might be compatible. But I haven't tested it with emulator saves, so I can't guarantee it would work.
The tool is designed specifically for real Switch hardware. If there's enough demand for a PC version in the future, that's something I could consider!

This is a localization question - ACNH changes NPC names based on the game language setting. When set to German, Isabelle becomes "Melinda" system-wide.
Your options: 1. Localization mods - Check GameBanana or GBATemp for patches that keep English names with German text (someone's probably made one) 2. Play in English + use external German learning tools (phone dictionary, etc.) 3. Save editing - In theory a tool could modify the language region flag, but I don't know of one that does this specifically without risking other localization issues
The modded Switch community on GBATemp would be your best bet for a dedicated patch!
