Get ready for stability, as it's time for a new Nintendo Switch system software update. This software version, puts the Switch at v9.0.0, and brings in some new additions that aren't just the average stability, such as a search feature for the news channel, ability to set alarms which will come with supported software later down the line, along with a Joy-Con firmware update, an "invite to online play" function, being able to turn off system button input for the Switch Lite, and being able to edit the touch screen's sensitivity. This system version also fixes a problem with crashing that Fire Emblem: Three House's expansion pass had. The full patch notes are below.

Ver. 9.0.0 (Released September 9, 2019)
Added the following system functionality:

• Added a search feature for the News Channel.
  • Channels can be searched using filters or free text.
• Added “Display QR Code to Check In” to User Settings.
  • You can display a QR Code on-screen to check in using your Nintendo Account.
• Alarm Notifications have been added to System Settings > Notifications.
  • You can check or delete pre-set alarms.
  • Alarms can be set up only within supported software (to be added at a later time).
  • A controller firmware update may be required to use this feature.
• You can now configure touch screen sensitivity settings.
  • Select between Standard and Stylus sensitivity (optimized for stylus input).
• Added the option to turn on/off the system button input (Nintendo Switch Lite only).
  • When this setting is turned off the system no longer receives input from the console buttons, with the exception of the Capture and HOME Buttons, and can only be operated from a wirelessly paired controller (sold separately).
  • This setting is on by default and can only be turned off if a compatible controller (sold separately) is wirelessly paired to the console.
  • The setting will automatically turn back on when the console is restarted or after returning from sleep mode.
• Added “Online Play Invites” section to the User's page.
  • Invites from friends to join online play in supported software will be displayed in this section.
• General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience.
  • Resolved an issue where some users can’t start the Fire Emblem: Three Houses game, and get an error instead.

Oof. If you guys already know it's trolling, why take the bait?

As a side note, in case it's not obvious already, when a post is reported multiple times by a few members, the gross majority of those reports will show up as rejected. This isn't because action is not being taken, it's because we already know. The report button exists for a reason, use it instead of feeding the troll. Patience is a virtue.

9.0 version - allows you to invite friends.

I thought the day would never come. It's a miracle..!

 

[Bladexdsl]

so when is the firmware going to be over 9.0.0(0) ?!

• Select between Standard and Stylus sensitivity (optimized for stylus input).

There is a stylus for the switch?

you can use any random capacitive stylus.....buut I don't know.....They released an official one for the switch with Mario Maker 2, don't they?

More stability and more useless features. Not gonna update yet.
Anyone can confirm the current state of CFW?

 

[OneAngryGamer]

This "update" is truly pathetic.

 

[Jiehfeng]

Finally the friends list does something! The news search feature is also a very nice addition, this is probably my favourite update.

 

[HitchensRIP]

My legit one is happy

so just to confirm other people, sx os does not work with 9.0.0 atm.
It does not even boot original fw from sx menu

 

[Owenge]

Ah yes I see, Nintendo put out an update that doesn’t really help the end user

 

[ZeroFX]

Already spotted some triggered updatards. Dont worry peeps, sooner or later we'll get cfw, key was dumped already.

 

[BlastedGuy9905]

Could this mean they are aware of the Joy-Con drift issues and just don't give a shit and give you a workaround to use?

 

[KuranKu]
