đź§© NX Custom DB: Major Update to the Tinfoil Metadata System
NX Custom DB gets a major update: faster, more reliable, and fully optimized for Tinfoil.
Hello everyone đź‘‹
We’ve reached a new milestone with the release of the new version of NX Custom DB for Tinfoil.
After many issues with Tinfoil’s official metadata such as server outages, corrupted JSON files, and missing names replaced by Title IDs, we completely rebuilt NX Custom DB to provide better stability, faster performance, and improved multilingual support.
🚀 A Complete Rework of NX Custom DB
After more than a month of work, we’re releasing a major new version of NX Custom DB powered by the NLib API v2.0.0 (recently rewritten with Hono and Node.js).
This update delivers faster synchronization, improved language handling, and automatic metadata updates for all supported titles.
âś… Key Improvements
- Fixes problems caused by Tinfoil’s unstable metadata sources
- No more Title ID-only lists
- Automatic updates several times a day
- Better multilingual compatibility
- Fully integrated system for smooth performance
đź§ How It Works
You don’t need to do anything.
NX Custom DB is automatically added to Tinfoil when you connect to supported sources.
Just make sure it isn’t disabled in your shop settings.

Protocol: https
Host: nx-meta.nlib.cc

You can also use it with your own Tinfoil shops if you prefer a more stable and complete metadata system than the default one.
🌍 Multilingual Support (Automatic Detection Coming Soon)
Soon, NX Custom DB will automatically detect your Tinfoil language setting and send metadata such as names, descriptions, and summaries in the same language.
Supported languages:
en, fr, es, de, ja, it, pt, nl, zh, ko, ru
đź§ľ Available Data
Each game entry includes detailed metadata powered by our NLib API:
- Game name
- Publisher
- Release date
- Short intro and full description
- Banners, icons, and screenshots
Data comes directly from:
GET https://api.nlib.cc/nx/${tid}?fields=name,publisher,releaseDate,intro,description,banner,icon,screens
Only games that have been dumped and indexed are included in NX Custom DB.
You can view the current list of supported titles here:

When a new title is added, its metadata appears automatically once available.
đź”§ Why This Update Matters
The goal is simple: offer a smoother, more complete, and more consistent Tinfoil experience.
With this new version of NX Custom DB, metadata is faster, more accurate, and always up to date thanks to the Ghost Land infrastructure.
You now have a database that’s:
- Faster
- More reliable
- More complete
- Optimized for better integration with Tinfoil
