Pretty sure this was an issue with some CFW, not sure if it was the actual CFW of the OFW causing it though

Red about it and seems like a wifi bug with fw 6.0 and it also happens on people on OFW.

My clean updated console suffers from same issue.

A thread about threads. Sick discussion.

strange. I haven't encountered this bug (have stock system as well).

It looks like it's related to the NES app specifically when the NES app tries to phone home to validate your Online subscription, and the WiFi is disabled - it panics and then your Switch crashes.

There's also mention of using the power button to force the Switch to sleep with WiFi on also crashing the Switch so the common theme seems to be WiFi related.

that would explain it for me. I don't have the app installed, and my wifi is enabled anyway. I don't even have an online subscription.

Glad Nintendo put exactly 0 thought into this.

There's so much shit that needs fixed in the NES app. The fake "burn-in" effect after using the TV filter, the fucked-up color pallets, and now this panic bug... But still no updated version... Hope they fix these bugs in an update or two.
