​

Welcome, December, and welcome, new Nintendo Switch firmware update. We have officially reached firmware version 11.0.0, and it brings with it more than just stability. Firstly, you now get a Nintendo Switch Online icon added to your home menu, which allows quick access to anything NSO related. The album has also been improved, as you can transfer screenshots directly from your Switch to a smartphone. As of this update, users will also be able to prioritize which games they wish to have downloaded first, when downloading multiple games at once. For those concerned over homebrew access, for now, it’s advised to not update to 11.0.0 until a new version of Atmosphere is released.

A new feature that automatically downloads backed up save data was added to the Save Data Cloud.

• When using software with the same Nintendo Account linked to multiple systems, save data backed up from one console will automatically be downloaded to your other system(s).
  *To use this feature, it must be enabled under System Settings > Data Management > Save Data Cloud.
  *Save data will not be downloaded automatically unless save data for that software exists on the console. The first time only, users must download the save data manually.
  *A Nintendo Switch Online membership is required to use the Save Data Cloud service.

A new Trending feature was added to the User Page.

• Users can check what software their friends are playing or have started playing recently.
  Information will not be displayed for friends who have their online status set to display to no one.

Users can now transfer screenshots and videos from Album to their smart devices.

• Users can wirelessly connect their smart devices to Nintendo Switch to transfer the screenshots and videos saved within their Album.
• For screenshots, users can transfer a maximum of 10 screenshots and 1 video capture at once.
  *To connect, users must use their smart device to scan the QR Code displayed on the Nintendo Switch screen.
  For more information, please refer to the Nintendo Support website.
  *“QR Code” is a registered trademark of DENSO WAVE INCORPORATED.

A new Copy to a Computer via USB Connection feature was added under System Settings > Data Management > Manage Screenshots and Videos.

• Users can use a USB cable to connect Nintendo Switch to their computers to copy the screenshots and videos saved under Album.
  * A USB charging cable [model HAC-010] or a USB-IF certified USB cable that supports data transfer is required to connect to a computer.
  For more information, please refer to the Nintendo Support website.
  * Connection via the Nintendo Switch dock is not supported. Please connect the Nintendo Switch system directly to the computer.

Users can now select what download to prioritize when there are multiple downloads in progress.

• When there are multiple software, update data, or downloadable content downloads in progress, users can now select which they want to download first.
• You can set this under Download Options by selecting the icon for the software you want to download first on the HOME Menu.

User icons were added.

• 12 user icons that commemorate the 35th anniversary of the Super Mario Bros. series were added.

Users can now name preset button mappings with the Change Button Mapping feature.

Brazilian Portuguese was added as a supported language.

• When users set their region to the Americas and their language to Português, the language used on the HOME Menu and in certain software will be displayed in Brazilian Portuguese.

Several issues were fixed, and usability and stability were improved.

BRASIL CARALHO feels. Now to wait for official Brazilian eShop on console next Monday.

 

[mattyxarope]

Update for SXOS will be released within 24 hours.

How do you know that?

 

[awesomelink234]

Atmosphere confirmed working yet? Afraid to update

Don't update, wait for SciresM Twitter post.

@Chary You missed this on the copy-paste:

Nintendo Switch Online was added to the HOME Menu.

• Access all Nintendo Switch Online services, from getting the latest information to checking your membership status. ***This feature is not available in some countries/regions.

Update for SXOS will be released within 24 hours.

They usually take a few days to get it working, especially with a major update. They might even wait for SciresM to update Atmosphere so they can steal his code.

 

[HollowGrams]

I will be impressed if the sx guys manage to update sxos from prison.

Marketing got hit. Pretty sure they weren't involved in updates. Update in bound.

 

[josephdin]

to those of you saying "tx is already working on an update" and "update will be here within 24 hours" can you at least post your source of proof?

 

[ut2k4master]

Users can check what software their friends are playing or have started playing recently.

guess this is what the nes/snes update was for, so people can see what game youre playing specifically?

 

[the_randomizer]

Some nice changes, would have been nice to see USB audio changes, i.e. like how you can have a PS4 USB headset, but output to speakers optionally.

to those of you saying "tx is already working on an update" and "update will be here within 24 hours" can you at least post your source of proof?

Sir, just be patient. What proof could be offered that would satisfy you? A link to *someone else* claiming it will be done within 24 hours? Think about what you are asking for.

Atmosphere confirmed working yet? Afraid to update

Nope

Discord is about to get swarmed with SX users trying to figure out Atmosphere

They gotta get past the hash check first

The USB transfer to computer function is the most interesting feature to me in this update, even if it's limited to transferring screenshots and videos. It opens up another alternative to getting them out, should one not have a microSD card handy. I wonder why it was delayed so long. I think it will most likely use MTP or UMS, unless someone already tested this feature out. It could open up more possibilities for interaction with computers over USB (though some homebrew already uses this functionality).

 

[Kanakops]

I heard people get a black screen, i'm not gonna update anyway for now, but what will happen to me if I do the update on my clean sysnand and keep using my non updated emunand?

Another fuse will be burnt; there will be 14 fuses burnt after installing the update and rebooting on OFW. CFW isn't affected by fuse count, but it might have something to do with the black screens.

Nothing. Will work fine.

 

[HollowGrams]

Nothing. Will work fine.

If your talking about keeping say 10.2 emunand and 11.0 ofw - This was confirmed not to work on TX. I personally have not tested it though.

 

[Sevithian]

Can confirm Atmosphere no longer working after update.

[banjo2]

So the NSO on home menu is just a shortcut to the eShop page for it? Or what?
