Yes, there are stability improvements, but that’s not all with the new system updates rolling out for Switch 2 and Switch. The patch notes for version 21.0.0 highlight better visual clarity on the home menu for whether a game is owned physically or digitally, GameChat improvements, and a battery description alteration.
Switch 2 and the original Switch are receiving the new symbols that will “indicate whether the software is a physical or a digital version,” according to Nintendo. The icons are now red like the cartridges for physical Switch 2 games, while they’re black for physical Switch titles. However, in general, Switch 2 is seeing more changes with this update. For instance, GameChat should now ensure a game doesn’t go to sleep while talking online with a friend. Plus, the system setting language for limiting a charge on the console now says, “Stop Charging Around 80-90%.”
This is the first Switch 2 system update since version 20.5.0 released in September. That only brought about “stability improvements,” something that’s expected and joked about constantly in the video game community.
