Yono and the Celestial Elephants creator Niklas Hallin is cooking up a new patch for the game. Currently, the plan is to add in support for the Switch Pro Controller. Hallin says it’ll take some time for the patch to go through Nintendo’s submission process, “but it’s on its way.”
Hallin wrote on Twitter today:
Pro Controller support seems to be working in Yono now. It'll take a while to get a patch through the system, but it's on its way.

First Switch eShop pre-load has started in Japan
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Switch’s firmware update last night was notable for several reasons. It added features like video capture and the ability to transfer data, but it also included support for eShop pre-loads – like what has been on Wii U and 3DS.
In Japan, the very first pre-load option has gone live. By accessing the eShop, it’s possible to purchase Snipperclips Plus ahead of time. Doing so allows you to download most of the necessary data, with only a small update needed to begin playing at launch.
Snipperclips Plus takes up 1.1GB in case you’re curious.
