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).
Main header
The header is 0x4000 bytes long.
There are 2 headers stored at 0x0 and 0x4000, presumably for commit and rollback purposes.
