Nintendo Patches Switch 2 and Switch with 23.0.1 to Fix Launch Delays

Nintendo released firmware version 23.0.1 on September 30, 2026, for both the Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Switch. The update addresses a specific regression from version 23.0.0 that caused software to take an unusually long time to start, pause, or close. This minor patch follows the larger 23.0.0 release, which introduced variable refresh rate support and other features. All outlets confirm the fix is identical across both hardware platforms, highlighting Nintendo's continued use of a shared firmware branch for its two active consoles.

Minecraft Minecoins Become Platform-Locked on Nintendo Devices Starting Oct 2026

Starting Oct 27, 2026, Minecoins bought on Nintendo devices will be usable only on Nintendo systems, while coins bought on other platforms won’t work on Nintendo devices after that date. Existing Minecoins move to a Legacy Wallet and remain usable across compatible platforms with no expiry; new purchases on Nintendo devices will go to a Nintendo Wallet, and some newer retail cards may drop Nintendo support—so always check packaging for platform compatibility before buying or redeeming.
