Nintendo Switch firmware 18.0.0 has been released

switchhhh.png

It's the first Nintendo Switch firmware update of 2024. Made available as of today is system software version 18.0.0, marking a new milestone. According to the patch notes, not much is brought to the table in this update, which features a new timer option for auto-sleep, and Korean as a supported language for the Nintendo Switch Parental Controls video. Under the hood, however, it looks there there's some substance, as it has broken support for Atmosphere. SciresM says that it'll take a few days to get around to, but expect to see a new Atmosphere update that supports version 18.0.0 in the near future.

Ver. 18.0.0 (Released March 25, 2024)​

  • Added “15 Minutes” as an option for “Auto-sleep when playing on TV” in Sleep Mode Settings.
  • Added Korean as a supported language for “Nintendo Switch Parental Controls” introductory video.
    • When the console language is set to Korean, the video can be accessed from Settings > Parental Controls.
  • General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience.

If this is true then it's safe to downgrade? I won't get banned if I do so?

That emulator crossed the line and Nintendo is retaliating. If there's an unspoken code Nintendo has about how to deal with piracy and how piracy is conducted on the fringes, then that emulator broke that code. Probably ruined it for the rest of us for good.

As far as I'm aware development hasn't been moved anywhere else? Sure, you can still download mirrors of the latest build. But that doesn't mean you'll get a new update if Nintendo breaks it again.

I got a question, How can you downgrade a EmuNAND or even a SysNAND from firmware 18.0.0 to 17.0.1 if nobody have the new set of keys? you need the keys to read the new (Emu)NAND.

Or Am I mixing two different concepts?

Couldn't you just run Lockpick/Picklock and get your new keys? (If it still works on 18.)

Nop, because LockPick-PickLock do not have the offsets yet. the code needs to be modified to search for the new keys ;(

    1st video- That's why I hate ordering stuff online, if I can just go pick it up myself nearby. Wal-Mart online did that to me years ago, sent wrong item, I went to Wal-Mart by me to return, but noo, I had to mail it back and wait.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    99% of the time ordering online I have had flawless experiences, only time something was messed up, I ordered a big TV from Amazon and it came smashed the box was literally like some one jumped up and down on it, didn't even open it, contacted Amazon sent them pictures, they made me open it and take more pictures, free label to return it and they sent another. So it was relatively painless. But still annoying.
