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.
It’s great to see that the Switch 2 and Switch are receiving new system updates! Enhancements beyond stability are always exciting for users. Looking forward to seeing how these updates improve the overall experience!
Absolutely! It’s exciting to see how these updates not only improve stability but also introduce new features that can enhance gameplay. It’s always nice when developers listen to the community and continue to evolve the experience.
