Nintendo has updated its Nintendo Switch maintenance schedule, detailing several spots of service maintenance set to take place over the next couple of days. While you're unlikely to face any severe issues, it might be worth keeping the following times in mind.
Four sessions are planned in total for this week, with some relating to the transfer of save data and user data. Nintendo warns that "during the maintenance window, network services may be unavailable." We have all the times you need below:
Nintendo Switch - Network Services (Notice to friends, etc.)
US: 10th Jan, 6pm PT - 7pm PT
UK: 11th Jan, 2am - 3am
Europe: 11th Jan, 3am CET - 4am CET
Nintendo Switch - Transfer Your Save Data
US: 12th Jan, 8:30pm PT - 11pm PT
UK: 13th Jan, 4:30am - 7am
Europe: 13th Jan, 5:30am CET - 8am CET
Nintendo Switch - Transfer Your User Data
US: 12th Jan, 8:30pm PT - 11pm PT
UK: 13th Jan, 4:30am - 7am
Europe: 13th Jan, 5:30am CET - 8am CET
Nintendo Switch - Network Services (Acquiring stage data etc.)
US: 12th Jan, 10pm PT - 13th Jan, 12am PT

If you do happen to notice any network-related issues while playing Switch this week, rest assured that it'll most likely be down to this planned maintenance and that things should get back up and running in no time.
Happy gaming!

No, there's no direct coming, and no switch pro either.
Edit: Also, no system update and no folders and themes.
@abdias won't stop them from milking it
@abdias you party pooper 😣
@abdias Gasp No silk Song!? ):
@abdias Panic!
What does the "Network Services" bit mean? Does that mean online won't be available?
Is it safe to assume Banjo-Kazooie will drop immediately afterwards? Maintenance is on the 12th US time, which I believe is the same day we got Paper Mario last month.

"during the maintenance window, network services may be unavailable"
I guess if you're going to comment on this article it's obligatory to reply to @abdias, so uh...
EGADS!
Or something. I dunno. Do I fit in now, guyz???

omg direct imminent
To be fair, it would make sense to put up a Direct to distract from this.... probably not though
I feel like that many updates to the Switch should mean something is coming, even if, as @Not_Soos mentioned, it’s just Banjo on N64 Switch online, which would still be pretty good.
@abdias Ahhh... so what you're saying is...
Super Funky Switch U 2 announcement confirmed!!
I KNEW IT!!!
usualy when Nintendo do so many maintanace in her services, it means a Nintendo Direct is iminent.

@Blakeava1821 Bro your SnesSwitch profile was banned for spamming this same thing everywhere. You're just asking for a ban at this point
@Blakeava1821 you can post it on the contact page rather than on every article here
@Blakeava1821 You call them children, but you don't realize the one acting like a child here is you? Just stop being a crybaby fanboy man. Aren't you in your 30s? Don't you have kids? Don't you have anything better to do than this? If you don't like this page just don't visit it
Thankfully, most of the downtime will be when I am blissfully asleep so I am pretty sure this will be a non-event. The Switch Online service is what it will be.
It works well enough for what I am doing, but to be honest the most I have used the online play feature is in the past month playing a Minecraft Realm with a friend.
Gotta reapply the scotch tape barely holding the paid online together at some point I guess.
