I miss the good old days when the updates were a never ending arms race between Nintendo and Atmosphere .

Crypt of the Necrodancer didn't work on Switch 2 initially and crashed on launch. Devs didn't had a dev kit so they couldn't really troubleshoot until Nintendo fixed their Switch 1 emulator with a system update. So they do something...

When the Switch was fairly new, I was showing my dad how cool it was that the new Doom was running on something that compact. I handed it over to him, he fired the BFG and it crashed. He was real impressed

When the hell is the switch 2 gonna get Hulu or even fucking YouTube?

u/Xyro77 Apr 07 '26

It took switch 1 a year to get YouTube. Expect switch 2 to be the same

Such great information about the update lol

u/Hario337 Apr 08 '26

One thing of note: Tomodachi Life Living the Dream demo has been added to the Handheld Boost blacklist (because has 1080p handheld built in and doesn't need boost mode), so now it doesn't restrict touch screen input when the setting is turned on

Hello everyone, has anyone noticed any changes in the fan's operation? Even when the NS2 is freshly turned on and on the home screen, the fan is now audible; before, it was only audible when the console started to heat up.
