One of the things that make The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim one of the best games is the fact that it provides excellent support for modding. You can have new weapons and armor, better graphics, new gameplay mechanics and many other elements which can make it a completely different game. Another advantage is that the re-release is available for a wide range of platforms, including the Nintendo Switch, and if you wish to add mods to this version, Skyrim-NX-Toolkit can help you, by converting Skyrim SE mods into a format that's compatible with the Nintendo Switch. If you ever wanted to use that custom weapon you were always looking at on the Nexusmods website in your Switch game, this handy utility can make it possible.

Skyrim-NX-Toolkit is not a traditional software application. It's essentially a collection of scripts, which you have to use on your mods. Its components come in a ZIP archive, and you don't have to install anything, but you should follow the developer's descriptions and instructions carefully, because you may have to install some prerequisite tools.

Once you extract Skyrim-NX-Toolkit's components, you will find a series of BAT files in its main folders, which you can use to convert mods, pack and unpack them, and even for creating a mirror image of your game's load order. To process a mod, you can simply drag and drop its folder over one of these executables, and the scripts will run right away. Alternatively, you can open a command prompt, type in the name of the batch file you want to run, along with the target mod's path if you want the window to stay on the screen and see if everything went smoothly.

Taking your time to run a script from the command prompt is always a good idea, since you get more information, and you can find out what can be done if something goes wrong. Skyrim-NX-Toolkit is not a complete package, so you will need to install some additional tools, like Python. In other cases, the tool you need may be downloaded automatically for you. Furthermore, you may want to double-check the mods you're about to convert because some of them won't work on the Switch, mainly those that rely on Skyrim's Script Extender (SKSE). However, the Toolkit will work with many other popular mods, so you should still be able to customize your game however you want.

Skyrim-NX-Toolkit can bring the magic and excitement of Skyrim mods to the Nintendo Switch, without too many complications.

Pros

The software is capable of making Skyrim SE mods usable on the Nintendo Switch. It comes with several batch files, for various operations.

Cons

The lack of a user interface can make things a bit difficult for users with little or no experience.
