switch Nintendo just started distributing version 17.0.1, so owners can get the latest system update.
The same song and dance applies here again. Past updates have focused on stability, and version 17.0.1 is no different. A bit of a problem, however, is that Nintendo has also addressed local communication issues for some titles.
Below is the full official synopsis from Nintendo, but it seems short:
Switch update version 17.0.1 patch notes
- Resolved local communication issues for some software.
- Improved overall system stability to improve user experience.
Nintendo has always focused on stability, but sometimes it’s a little more specific than that. The company did not provide further details, but said the list of inappropriate words may be updated in some cases. In any case, unless Nintendo specifically points it out, it’s probably not a big problem.
If you want to download the Switch version 17.0.1 update immediately, you can do so by visiting System Settings. Just go to the “System” tab and select the “System Update” option. For most Switch users, it will download automatically in the background and prompt you to install it immediately.
