Do not update to 10.X if you are using SX OS Because then you won’t be able to play a lot of Nintendo games, like Smash, luigis mansion etc. They are broken with the latest SX OS beta, and you need the latest SX OS beta to get 10.X running.

So stay at a lower firmware for now, if possible.

edit: everything fixed now with SX OS 3.0, so:

I take everything back and claim the opposite.

Incorrect, most games if not all of them works fine on 10.X. Else people would write a lot about it.

I've read of this happening to others. I don't know enough about the switch to determine what may be the cause, but I think the solution is to reinstall those games.

Try getting it from a different source and make sure you re-install the SXOS files.

this was just a general issue that people seem to have with every firmware update. maybe it's a sig patched problem? I dunno.

I too have not had any problems..

I realise you're trying to perform a public service here, but maybe the thread should be renamed.
It's ominous tone may put people off unneccessarily.

My smash crashes at main menu starting a game. Known issue on tx forums. Works fine in atmo. Some games require a save or atmos booted to bypass eula like bioshock.

That's an easy fix. You just need to blow in the cartridge and put it in again :tpi:

Sometimes if blowing on it doesn't work you've got to stick one cartridge in and then stick the game you want to play in on top of that. Weirdly that made games work a lot on NES lol.
