Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch update 21.0.1 out now, patch notes
Posted on 8 hours ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Heads up for Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch owners as a new firmware update, version 21.0.1, has now been released.
This seems to be about improving things from the last update. Version 21.0.0 came out earlier in the month and brought about some new features. However, it did also break some things in the process. Nintendo specifically addressed a couple of error codes with local system transfers as well as an issue involving wireless controllers/Bluetooth audio devices specifically on Switch 2.
Also, as you may recall, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond / Shining Pearl and Crypt of the NecroDancer were among the games we were hearing about having issues on Nintendo Switch 2 following the update. We’ll have to wait and see if there are reports of these titles now having been fixed with version 21.0.1.
Below is the full notice for today’s update:

The latest UK software sales chart for the week ending November 22, 2025 is now available.
The big news here is the debut of Kirby Air Riders, which actually missed out on the top ten. You’ll find it this week down at #12. Kirby Air Ride on GameCube wasn’t a massive seller back in the day, so this may not come as a huge surprise.
Worth noting, Mario Kart World is still trucking along. This one actually moved up a spot from #3 to #2.
Here’s the full UK software sales chart for the week ending November 22, 2025:
