What's going on boys and girls what's up world Austin John plays here and today
we're gonna be talking about the brand new firmware version 9.0 for the
Nintendo switch and why it's actually kind of important
last night Nintendo released software version 9.0 for the Nintendo switch
which has a lot of very big features that we've actually been waiting for as
well as some brand new features for the Nintendo switch light due out next
Friday the same day as links awaken first the most lackluster of all the
subjects is the news panel if you go to find channels you now have the option to
search for a channel so if I want to come in here and type okay gotta read it
all oh there's there's no channels that's weird I don't understand exactly
how that works I've never used the news tab I would like to remove it from my
home screen to be honest next has to do with your actual user
account and there's a new option ur says display QR code to check in right here
displays a QR code that's unique to my Nintendo account I'm probably gonna have
some of its censored so that you don't you don't use my QR code you should not
be sharing this with anyone this is if you're going to go to like an in person
Nintendo event and you have to have your Nintendo account it's a lot easier for
you to just have your Nintendo switch and present that QR code for them to
scan and then you're logged in which is pretty neat this seems like something
that are gonna implement at future events I've attended a few events in the
past and while it did link to my Nintendo account it ran to a code system
and it wasn't really optimized but this is them taking a step toward an
all-digital checking in system which is fantastic gotta save a planet under
notifications in the system settings there's now something called alarm
notifications after sending alarm you get a notification at the time and date
of your choosing so alarm notifications is going to be a feature that's going to
be set by supported software quote to be added at a later time
and what it's good to be able to do is vibrate your Nintendo switch and
notification LED I believe the notification LED is only
going to be for the switch light since that has a notification LED on it while
we're here we could go to control and sensors and scroll down a little bit and
you're going to see touch screen sensitivity there's two options standard
or stylus why they added this now instead of when Mario maker 2 came out
and didn't release a stylus here in North America I don't know that would
have been a nice thing for us to have when Mario maker 2 came out who knows
maybe we're gonna get more programs that support the stylus and I also never
bought a stylus I ended up actually becoming really good with the pro
controller with Mario maker this is a really big one so now we have online
play invites invites from friends to join an online play and supportive
software will be displayed here this is a feature that has been implemented I
know on xbox I think also on PlayStation and how it works on Xbox is so seamless
if you're playing a game and you want a friend to join you they could either
jump into your game or you can send them an invite and now the Nintendo switch is
supporting something similar to that we don't know what software is gonna
implement this feature but I am looking forward to it the last feature is going
to be one for the Nintendo switch light only this is most likely going to be the
firmware that the switches shipped with that or the previous one 8.1 and it
actually already has some fixes and some quality of life improvements the option
to turn on / off the system button input and when this feature is turned off the
system no longer receives input from the console buttons except for capture and
home it's screen lock they want it so that when it's in your bag and since
there's no way to protect it and it accidentally hits the a button three
times it does an unlock your screen and drain your battery which is really nice
with the home button which is more recessed than the other buttons on the
side of the switch light the joique on area it's a little bit
difficult for that button to be hit and three times consecutively this is a
feature that is by default off so you could turn your Nintendo switch on with
any of the buttons or if you know it's gonna be in your bag and rustling around
you can hit this feature I don't know where it's gonna be implemented however
if you turn on your pro controller that's paired to it it's automatically
gonna turn that feature off so you can just conveniently hit the a button three
times and you're good to go and it unlocks your Nintendo switch when
you open up your Nintendo switch when you unlock it or when you reset the
console that feature is gonna be turned on automatically so basically it seems
like sort of a convoluted more advanced screen lock I hope this is a feature
that's gonna be easy to implement like if you just hold down the home button
you have an option for sleep mode or sleep mode without system button that
seems like a much better way for them to implement this because if you need to go
into your system settings and you need to go into an option and turn the option
on and then go into sleep mode it seems like it's it's not an easy solution
therefore it's not a solution and then also if you play Fire Emblem three
houses there was an issue with downloading the DLC and not being able
to start the game and that's been fixed that seems like a major oversight that's
firmware version 9.0 for the Nintendo switch with a lot of quality of life
features a lot of things in place for the future that we've all been waiting
for which is really fantastic as well as some quality of life improvements for
the Nintendo switch and fix environment guys I'm wrapping this video up if
