Nintendo has just released Nintendo Switch Firmware Update 4.1.0 which seems to improve general stability and an issue that caused motion controls to respond incorrectly.
I hadn’t heard of this specific issue outside of a few games (Splatoon 2 and Skyrim) that were having some abnormalities with gyro controls.
The full patch notes from Nintendo are below:
Improvements Included in Version 4.1.0 (Distributed 12/04/2017)
- General system stability improvements to enhance the user’s experience, including:
- Resolved an issue that caused motion controls to respond incorrectly when playing games that use the feature
It’s been a while since we’ve had a major Nintendo Switch update. I’d hope that we’ll get something substantial in the new year alongside the proper Nintendo Switch online functionality.
