New Switch icons available through Nintendo Switch Online
Posted on 2 years ago by Nicolas in News, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo has just detailed a few additions to the Nintendo Switch Online app on Switch systems. Specifically, they’ve updated the “Missions and Rewards” section of the app, adding a new set of missions to complete for Platinum points along with new user icon elements that can be purchased with those same points.
The latter is particularly noteworthy, as the last time new profile icons were made available to users was a system update in November 2020. Along with these new icons being made available, Nintendo is also offering new backgrounds and frames that can be used to expand on the customization of user profiles. These new user elements will be available until April 4, 2022, at which point they’ll likely be switched out for a different set.

One of the aspects widely discussed for Zelda: Ocarina of Time on Nintendo Switch Online was the Water Temple – particularly the implementation of fog in the room with Dark Link. According to Twitter user OatmealDome, it has now been fully restored and essentially looks like how it should, meaning it closely resembles the original release.
