1. Background
- Overcooked! All You Can Eat is a commercial Nintendo Switch title that bundles Overcooked 1 & 2 with enhanced features and post-launch patches.
- Official Switch game distribution formats: cartridge and digital from the Nintendo eShop. NSP is a package format used by Nintendo’s firmware for installed titles; XCI is cartridge-dump format.
- Switch firmware and eShop updates deliver oficial title updates and DLC. Homebrew scenes create NSP dumps, updates, and repacks for offline installation on modded systems.
Installation Steps
- Place files on SD card – Copy the .nsp or .nsz files to a folder like
switch/install/. - Boot into CFW – Launch Atmosphere via Hekate or fusee.bin.
- Open an installer – Tinfoil is the most user-friendly.
- Install Base Game – Navigate to the file browser, select the base NSP, and choose “Install”.
- Install Update – Do the same for the update NSP. The installer will detect it as an update to the existing title.
- Ignore Ticket Errors – Some updates require “ignore missing ticket” or “fake link” options enabled in the installer.
- Launch the game – Overcooked: All You Can Eat should now appear on your home menu with the latest version shown in System Settings > Data Management.
If using a repack, simply install the single file – it will include everything.
Repack Fails to Install
- Cause: Corrupted download or installer incompatibility with NSZ or compressed formats.
- Fix: Verify the repack’s checksum (CRC/SHA) from the source. Use Tinfoil’s “NSZ” support setting.
5. Typical repack variants for Overcooked! AYC
- Full merged NSP: base game + all official updates + available DLC combined into one NSP.
- No-DLC repack: base + updates, excluding paid DLC to reduce size.
- Language-stripped repack: removes unused audio/text locales to compress.
- Compressed repack: uses stronger compression (e.g., 7z or recompression of RomFS) then repackaged as an installable NSP.
- Update-only NSPs: contain only the official update data for a specific version.
