This page describes the format of savegames contained in NAND. NAND savegames do not use an container with the entire file encrypted. Various areas of the saveimage is uninitialized data, resulting in encrypted data in those areas (like 3DS did).

AES CMAC header

Image offset Length Description
0x00 0x10 AES-CMAC over DISF header (size 0x200)
0x10 0xF0 Zero padding

The final CMAC key used for this is generated using GenerateAesKek with a kek source and the device key, along with and LoadAesKey and a set key seed.

DISF

  • This is located @ 0x100 in the image, following the CMAC header.

0x008 32 Hash of start of DPFS to end of 0x4000 block (usually/always? 0x300-0x3FFF)
0x028 8 Primary Partition Table Offset
0x030 8 Primary Partition Table Size

0x048 8 Save Partition Offset
0x050 8 Save Partition Size
0x258 End

DPFS

  • This is located @ 0x200 in the image, following DISF.
