The Nintendo Switch Parental Controls app has received an update, though it only looks to be available on iOS at present. The latest patch is version 1.4.1. Nintendo’s update notes only make mention of bug fixes.
As far as we’re aware, this update has not yet been distributed on Android. Google Play still has Nintendo Switch Parental Controls at version 1.4.0. If that changes, we’ll let you know.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.
Lost Sphear finally made its debut in North America and Europe this week. The launch was accompanied by a day one update. Square Enix didn’t really go into the specifics, only stating that it provides “new equipment and artefacts, a new dungeon, the new Moonlight Battleground mode and much more.” Thankfully, the Japanese website has more information.
For Moonlight Battleground, a new NPC “Transcender of Reason” shows up on the Fading Hill after you’ve cleared the game. Speak with him to be able to have rematches against previous bosses. Their strength levels will be adjusted to the player’s levels, so they will offer challenging battles.

This week, Choice Provisions published Space Dave! on Switch. This was actually a spiritual successor to Woah Dave!, which came to Wii U and 3DS a few years ago.
Woah Dave! could end up making the jump to Switch as well. Choice Provisions told Nintendo Everything reader Jeff1.3 that they’re up for it, especially if fans make it known that they’re interested.
We would! Especially if people let us know that's something they would like!
