New firmware update available | Nintendo Switch News | NintendoReporters

 [![New firmware update available](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/nieuwe-firmware-update-beschikbaar.jpeg "New firmware update available")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/nieuwe-firmware-update-beschikbaar.jpeg)There is another new firmware ready for the Nintendo Switch namely version 4.1.0.

This unfortunately brings no concrete new features with it, but ensures that it improves the stability of the console technically. It also solves a very specific motion control problem.

Some gamers noted that lately this was not as good but it should now be resolved completely.

## [](#version-5-x)Version 5.X

It will probably take some time, but what would you like to see reflected in the major version update for the Nintendo Switch? New themes? Save your savegames in your Nintendo ID? Support for Wii U Pro Controller? Virtual Games? More clarity on online?
