NX-Fetch-Rem is a configurable fork of NX-Fetch for Nintendo Switch homebrew (.nro). The project keeps the spirit of the original app, but makes it much easier to customize through an external config file instead of editing the source every time.

The author notes that they are primarily a Python developer, so a large part of the project was written with AI assistance.

Features

• Auto-generated config.ini on first launch
• Palette switching with left/right on the D-Pad
• Built-in system info modules
• Custom labeled modules like custom.btw
• Simple text-only lines like simple.1.space
• External logo support through logo_path
• Formatting and override support for built-in modules

Installation

1. Put NX-Fetch-Rem.nro into:

sdmc:/switch/

1. Launch the app once.
2. The app will automatically create:

sdmc:/switch/NX-Fetch-Rem/config.ini

1. Edit that file however you want.

Controls

• Left/right on the D-Pad switches the palette.

Note: the quick color switching on the arrows does not work as intended, so there is roughly a 5 second wait before the color can be changed.

Config

The full example config is in config.example.ini. The main ideas are:

• modules=... controls order and visibility
• palette=left:right:accent adds a color preset
• custom.name=value adds a labeled custom module
• simple.1.space=... adds a text-only line
• override.module=... replaces a built-in value
• format.module=... formats built-in values using tokens

Custom modules

label.custom.btw=Fetch
custom.btw=NX-Fetch-Rem
modules=os,custom.btw,battery

If label.custom.btw is missing, the label defaults to the module name.

Simple lines

simple.1.space=     
simple.3.sys=------- System -------
modules=simple.1.space,simple.3.sys,os,cfw

Default simple colors:

• simple.1.* -> left palette color
• simple.2.* -> right palette color
• simple.3.* -> white

Logo

Leave this commented to use the built-in logo:

# logo_path=sdmc:/switch/NX-Fetch-Rem/logo.txt

Uncomment it to use a text file logo. If a line contains |, the text before it uses the left color and the text after it uses the right color. A sample file is included in logo.example.txt.
