Nintendo Switch System Update 14.1.0 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

I will update my Switch after working time.

Platinum Points bros, we just can't stop winning!

system notifications or just notifications while in the NSO app?

guessing system notifications

I'm so used to moaning about no folders when these updates come out.

Let there be stability or nothing!

hold me back, the most important system update, perhaps of all time.

No stability. 😞
My horses have all ran away now

No stability

Nice to have the platinum point expiration notification. Some cool new Splatoon icon parts too.

How are we at version 14.1 already? It doesn't seem like much has changed besides the usual stability updates.

The 3DS only went up to version 11 and that included themes, miiverse and so much more.

Stability is dead. Long live Platinum Points.

STABILITY NOW!

Edit: in my head that sounds like serenity now

I want stability, and I want it now!

@Kimyonaakuma
It only shows that Nintendo has been putting a bigger emphasis on the Switch firmware... though the result is quite contrary considering the amount of results.

Where is the stability? Is it safe? Is it alright?

i still want folders, but now i know for sure they're never coming so why bother complaining?

Finally! Splatoon icons, been waitng for this!

Y'know, Nintendo, you wouldn't have to go through the trouble of making an update to remind us when our Platinum Points are about to expire if you were to just...I don't know...NOT give them an expiration date?

@PeteW Well you can still moan about themes, baby! OH YEAH! 😎

There ya have it. Very splattisfying.

Why not add a feature that reminds us about how useless Platinum points is?

Microsoft is way better at "Platinum" points than Nintendo.
When it comes to Microsoft, and also Xbox.. "Platinum" translates to real money.

Sony is so cheap that they don't even have "Platinum". lol

Definitely not an update for me. Have so many platinum points but nothing to use them on. Paying $6 shipping for a $2 trinket is hardly my idea of a "reward" when companies like Disney have reward systems where you can get cool stuff completely free without even purchasing anything ever.

I'd rather just take a pinch of stability.

New icons being added is always a good thing, will check out the Splatoon ones later.

@Pirate1 were you treating your switch as if it were an amusement park?

@FishyS there were some nice physical things on the nintendo store recently though, i got some extra decoration for my real life mario kart live track in the living room

Wait, is there only 8 new Animal Crossing icons or is there more? I can't check as I'm away but wanted to use Pietro and it's his birthday on April 🤔 Is it only a selection of birthday characters?

@Ooyah I'm waiting on the inevitable Kirby Tetris 99 theme event, gotta be incoming soon!

@TheStardustWarrior And platinum points shouldn't expire!

Also, Don't forget to support 'House of the Dead Remake' for Nintendo Switch so we can get 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 in the future 😀 They might even throw in Overkill!

I was hoping it was an update to make Groups available from the main screen. Oh well.

@calbeau Me too! As they are now, they are worthless to me.

@dkxcalibur Indeed. Not sure who at Nintendo thought it was a good idea to let games be organized, but the result can only be seen with extra navigation. Sure, it has its uses, but seems like a half-***ed job to me.

Hopefully vr. 15.0.0 will give us themes or the privilege to make/buy some.

Bluetooth audio and groups are nice and all, but what I'm really waiting for is an increase in stability.

...without having read the comments before me, I'd like to apologize to the 6 or so people who already made the same joke.

@Specter_of-the_OLED I hope not, I usually use the OS for about 5 seconds to pick a game to play. I don't want to wait 10 seconds for it to load a theme first.

Team I threw a cricket ball at my docked switch the other week and it didn’t fall over. First time it hasn’t. Therefore I think Nintendo has reached maximum stability already and that’s why they are focusing on developing other things like hard to use folders and pointless points. God love em

@Ventilator how do you earn Platinum on Xbox?

@sanderev That's why Nintendo should add a quick start option so you don't have to wait to go to the OS and just jump straight to the cart. Analogue had this feature mastered but not Nintendo. With this feature, having theme is a non-issue.

@Specter_of-the_OLED The Switch already has a quick start option. It's literally 4x (5x if you have multiple users, and 2x less if you disable the lock mode) A from the lock screen. Which absolutely and purely only works because it doesn't take 10 seconds to load the home menu because there are no themes.

I'd rather have an easy access to a fast simple menu, than 10 seconds delay for one that has themes.

Also how would an easy access menu work with downloaded games? Not every game I have on my Switch is on a cartridge.

@angelus It's called "MS Rewards" on Xbox.
I earn around 10$ every month on Xbox, but earned a total of 170$ so far just for playing games mainly.
You get points just for starting specific games weekly.
You get points daily using the Xbox phone app.
You get monthly points for doing specific tasks in games.
Getting an Achievement daily gives you a bunch of points.
Bing searches, purchases etc.
100% of points can be converted to real money.
You can spend rewards and real money combined on purchases like on Switch with Gold points.
Xbox also have punch cards can give you a huge chunk of extra points on purchases.
Windows 10 Game Pass PC Versions can be used instead of Xbox to earn points, but Xbox console app have exclusive bonus points daily.
The points can also be used for purchasing anything Microsoft sells including Surface laptops etc.

@Ventilator sounds pretty cool, would be nice if Nintendo took a hint.

@angelus Yeah, but at least Nintendo had Gold points for at least 10 years now which converts to real money. Sony never had any rewards at all.

Nearly passed out when I saw no stability updates.
