Nintendo has updated its Switch firmware to Version 18.1.0 .
As you might have already noticed, this one is a little bit different. It's tied to the previous announcement in May about the Switch's discontinuation of 'X' (formerly Twitter). It means Switch users will no longer be able to post screenshots of videos to X from the system's album.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is also impacted and the option to link 'X' has now been removed as well as the ability to send friend requests to social media users. Here's the full rundown, courtesy of Nintendo's official patch notes: Nintendo's original announcement of the discontinuation of 'X' and social media integration also mentioned how certain posting features in Splatoon 3 and Splatoon 2 would be adjusted as well.

Comments 3 So stable and I can hear the sound of the horse neigh. Well, that's a depressing update. I guess Twitter is just too unstable for Switch.
I still don't see why Nintendo can't trans.
