Nintendo Switch’s new console update should make all of our lives easier

Nintendo has a new Switch console update for fans. As is usual, every once in a while, Nintendo will push out an update for the Switch console making our lives a bit easier.

Despite the console being in its seventh year, there’s always something that can be addressed or fixed, and this latest update dives under the hood for some fine-tuning.

Super Mario Wonderis still managing to keep Mario’s adventures feeling fresh.

It’s not a particularly big update, nor does it add any new features or functionality. The main focus of the 18.0.1 console update is a stability fix for a Wi-Fi bug that stopped networks with certain security settings from being detected.

Thepatch notesstate, “If you’re unable to update to Version 18.0.1 because of the issue, temporarily change the security settings for your wireless network to use only ‘WPA2 (AES)’ so you can connect wirelessly to download and install the system update.”

Other than that, we got the usual “general system stability improvements to enhance the user’s experience.”

So maybe general updates are thin on the ground for the aging console and it has us thinking that theSwitchis easing off into the sunset. It’s perhaps unlikely that the Switch will see many more new features from this point.
