What is a NACP file?
An NACP file contains information a Nintendo Switch video game console or Switch emulator references when running code stored in a Nintendo Switch Executable File (.NRO file). It includes properties for components in the game or application, including data and cache storage size, runtime parameters, application error codes, and logos. NACP files are not meant to be opened, but game modders may encounter them when attempting to play or modify games or apps.
More Information
NACP files are one of several Nintendo Switch resource files. They accompany NRO files and are typically distributed in Nintendo Submission Package (.NSP) files.
