NATIVE_FIRM and SAFE_MODE_FIRM for the initial versions are exactly the same, besides [[Configuration_Memory|core-version]] fields. SAFE_MODE_FIRM is used for running SAFE_MODE titles, on retail SAFE_MODE_FIRM seems to be only used for running the [[System_Settings#System_Updater|System Updater]] application.
