Could you build this?
Partial A Windows GUI is vibe-codeable, but correct parsing and decryption of Switch file formats requires format-specific expertise, and the product relies on the user's own keys.
What it would actually take: A Windows GUI can wrap an existing library such as LibHac to parse NSP, XCI, and NCA containers, extract ExeFS and RomFS, and convert formats. The hard parts are correct handling of the proprietary crypto and NCA structures across firmware versions, plus the NSZ compression path. This needs reverse-engineering knowledge of the Switch file formats, C# or C++ systems skills, and thorough testing against many dump variants.
