To use legacy branches, you need to set the hardware.nvidia.package option to a package set named config.boot.kernelPackages.nvidiaPackages.legacy_<branch>.

❄︎ configuration.nix

{ config, ... }: # ← Required to get the packages used by the currently configured kernel, including drivers
{ 
  # Last version that supports Kepler GPUs
  hardware.nvidia.package = config.boot.kernelPackages.nvidiaPackages.legacy_470;
}

Nixpkgs does not endeavor to support all legacy branches since older, unmaintained legacy branches can become incompatible with newer kernel and X server versions, and at some point it becomes infeasible to patch them to cooperate with modern software. You can find the list of supported legacy branches under in the Nixpkgs repository.
