The only thing that Nintendo added was “general system stability improvements to enhance the user’s experience”, and only a single bug fixed was listed.

**The official patch notes**

- General system stability improvements to enhance the user’s experience, including:
    - Resolved an issue where certain games don’t recognize a Nintendo Switch Online membership for a short time after purchase
