Nintendo has updated Jump Rope Challenge again, bringing the eShop download to version 1.2.0.
Today’s patch primarily includes two new elements. First, there’s now a results screen to look back on your progress after you’ve completed 100 days. It’s also possible to reset your results and start a second cycle after the same 100-day mark.
Other than that, there’s the standard line about fixing a number of issues to make for a pleasant playing experience.

Despite games taking us to other worlds and giving us what can feel like the ultimate sense of escapism, it seems that there’s less of an emphasis these days on genuinely having fun and instead wanting to make things as realistic as possible. Sometimes it feels like wonder and awe are lost, but then you come across something like Ary and the Secret of Seasons, which exudes a magical presence and a fantastical setting you’d want to explore and live in. It has that sense of adventure, a charming art style, and a heartwarming story that, while simple, remains effective in giving an overall feeling of positivity as you play throughout. It hits all the right notes when it comes to being a decent game that’s accessible and for a wide demographic, but its biggest issues unfortunately come from an overall mess of an experience filled with graphical glitches, borderline unplayable performance in some cases, and bugs in just about every corner.
