Nintendo just released a new firmware update for Switch 2 and Switch, with both systems now at version 22.5.0.
Good news: there’s more than just stability this time. And interestingly, it’s the original Nintendo Switch that gets more of an upgrade here.
On Nintendo Switch, the eShop layout has been redesigned and the store color will now reflect the “Basic Dark” you have in system settings. You can also now rewind 10 seconds/advance 10 seconds with videos.
Nintendo Switch 2 isn’t left out here. There’s some new support for Dutch and Russian accessibility options.
For those interested in the full details, continue on below.
