i have my switch collecting dust on version "2.1"
so the question is obvious..should i stay there as the developers have always advised us that "Lower is better!"
or should i update to 4.1 after the new information that announced the CFW will be for all up to 4.1 in the same time? (Excluding 1.00 of course)
thanks in advance :)

Only update if you have a game you want to play on the Switch that you can't wait for. Note that if you're updating to 5.0.1 it's going to become more complicated to hack than your current firmware version.

I would leave it where it is currently on, you can always manually update to 3.0.0 if you need to update using Pokken Tournament DX update but make sure to get the 000 version not 001. Backup options is you can leave this one alone or hunt down a 1.0.0 firmware, but that would cost you a good chunk of money, due to the way people scalp. Expect release date is around summer time for Atmosphere.

Well, if you like Pokken, you can buy that, which will update you to 3.0.0, and you can play emulators. :P

I am stupid :D
Depends. Do you have other consoles to play on? Do you really need the update?
Ti be honest I dont have any other gaming system so just want to know is there any deference between 2.x and 4.x

Unless you plan on using it anytime soon, just leave it.
Actually i wanna use it so mich but if that means no hombrew for me then yea i can wait a little bit more

id wait nothing to loose honestly you waited alot and only a couple of month.
at least you can find a used game and play it, im on 1.0.0 and everything i found has an update :D

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

and i dont think updating to 3.0 for homebrew is worth it, at the time being to be honest.
just stay where you are and when things get released you will know where to go

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

either way dont go past 3.0 that is what i would donif i had a console on 2.1, and i wouldnt even go there cause homebrew scene is still emerging so nothing fancy there

As long as you have a single game is good to go because there's lot of defective switches and with one game at least you can test the console and if it gives you any problem you will get a new one...

If you didn't test the console you may hack it and then if it dies you may already be out of warranty or Nintendo may refuse to fix...

In my opinion, enjoy the first two years of a console and update as you want to play games. Then, when hacks will be released (and I don't doubt they will be on any firmware in two years) enjoy custom firmwares and homebrews :D
