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.

This is a major update, so Atmosphere will be broken until updated.

I've been traveling in Japan since earlier in the month, but I get back this week -- I'll start sorting out getting Atmosphere updated as soon as I can, but it might be a couple days before I can get started. https://t.co/ELLRWrz7Xg

You'll have to Google it for yourself, I don't assist with piracy here.

The worst the instructions are 2 and 6 post above the question!! I can not understand how there are people incapable of reading!

you can build it easy

you need DevKitPro:

the packages:
git make devkitARM gcc

then

git clone --recursive https://github.com/suchmememanyskill/TegraExplorer.git
cd ~/TegraExplorer

Does anybody have the latest commit with HOS 18.x compiled? I am not sure how to do it myself. Thanks

Is it safe to update to 18.0.0 yet?
I'm trying to install Trails into Daybreak demo but it failed citing outdated firmware.
I'm using 17.0.0.
