Developer The-4N Just pulled out a tool that was awaited by the whole Switch scene and it's an XCI to NSP Converter

4NXCI is a tool for converting XCI(NX Card Image) files to NSP
It's in early stages and there are lots to be done
You need to place your keyset file with "keys.dat" filename in the same folder as program

4NXCI is based on hactool by SciresM hactool

What's the advantage of this over just getting the NSP from the server?

There is no advantage , just if you got some *.XCI games that you downloaded by mistake you won't have to redownload them a Second time 4NXCI Open-Source *.XCI to *.NSP Converter (19)

Forgive me if this a tad off-topic, but what are the benefits of using .nsp over .xci?

As long there is no emuNAND, you still need to buy a second switch to avoid a ban.
A shame that atmosphere 0.7 won't have it, hopefully it will be implemented not long after the first official release.
The switch doesn't appear to have directories to distinguish between the switch unique encryption keys, so one will probably need an additional microSD to use the emuNAND without affecting the sysNAND.

I've heard that some games never got a store release. Hence, no natural NSP would exist for those games.

No sh*t. That still involves a huge risk.

You install a .nsp. That's the biggest risk.
