Yes, it's kind of barebone on the Switch.

The command is easy. Turn off the Switch fully. Then press power and "- +" volume.
To return, just hold the power button down for 4 seconds.


I did however like that you can factory reset it without loosing your saves. This means they're on a different part of the system, just like androids custom recover (TWRP) where you can skip certain folders to get wiped. (this is an example, I know it's not running a complete android system even if they might share similarities)

Give it time, the OS looks very good and stable (fingers crossed)...many more features will be added soon with new system updates.

    Just ordered two new 4k Blu-rays. Bram Stokers Dracula 30th Anniversary 4k Steelbook and Basket Case Limited Edition 4k.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    discs are soooooo much better quality than 4k streaming netflix, amazon, etc. and heavily compressed hvec, x264/5, etc rips.
  • cearp @ cearp:
    Sure, if you really want/"need" the highest quality there is you can grab remuxes. But will be pretty big file sizes, so disks can be better in that regard.
    But piracy is free so... :D

    honestly remux is not worth it
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    some bluray rips are kinda crappy, remuxes are a more safe bet, but i usually don't have trouble finding a good rip, there are certain groups to avoid and some to look out for
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @RedColoredStars netflix really is bad quality but some of the other streaming services aren't too bad. i think i've had good quality from disney+

    amazon seems decent enough
