Argon is a noble gas. "Argon" comes from Greek "Argon", neuter of "argos" meaning lazy , idle or inactive. Argon recieved this name because of its chemical inactivity.
Argon NX is an immutable payload which is injected to your Nintendo Switch via Fusee Gelee exploit.
The purpose of Argon NX is to stay immutable, so you can always inject it, without caring about other payloads getting updated (Always use ArgonNX for TegraSmash, TegraGUI, TrinkedM0...).
When Argon NX is injected, it automatically launches the payload.bin
loacted at argon
directory on your SD Card root.
If payload.bin
is not present or VOLUME DOWN button is pressed on payload injection, Argon NX will list all payloads located at argon/payloads
, and you will be able to select one of them to launch it.
- Autolaunch/autochainload the payload named
payload.bin
insideargon
directory in your sd card root. - If
argon/payload.bin
is not found orVOLUME_DOWN_BUTTON
is held during ArgonNX injection, ArgonNX will list all the payloads located atargon/payloads
, so you can select one of them to launch it. - Customize payloads' logos. Logos must be smaller or equal than 200x200. Example:
argon
โโโโlogos
โ default.bmp # Default logo (logo for all payloads)
โ fusee-primary.bmp # Logo for fusee-primary.bin payload
โ
โโโโpayloads
fusee-primary.bin
ReiNX.bin # Will be rendered using default logo
- Custom backgrounds can be added by placing
background.bmp
file insideargon
directory. The background must be smaller or equal than 720x1280. - Custom titles can be added by placing
title.bmp
file insideargon
directory. There is not a specific size for title. - Take screenshots to share your ArgonNX gui.
- FULL touch support. Thanks to @pixel-stuck
The only format supported is BMP 32 bit ARGB color. The color used for transparency is #1D1919.
This image was captured with the screenshot feature.

ArgonNX can use minerva dram training to improve performance.
The use of minerva is optional but recommended. To use minerva just place the compiled minerva.bso
inside argon/sys
. The directory argon/sys
with minerva, is included in sd-files.zip
in the release section.
This payload will launch any CFW or payload.
- Kind of config file
- Change to prettier font
- devkitPro for the devkitA64 toolchain.
- naehrwert and st4rk for the original hekate project and its hwinit code base.
- CTCaer for the continued hekate and his minerva project.
- xalgovia and Retrogamer 74 for the splash and logos. Also thanks them to use ArgonNX in RetroReloaded.
- langerhans and stuck-pixel for their implementation of touch support.
- D3fau4 for touch support testing.
