Nintendo Switch: firmware 12.0.0 arrives, a save bug has been fixed

During last night, Nintendo officially released the new firmware 12.0.0 to Nintendo Switch. The update in question is definitely relevant, as is also confirmed by the firmware numbering change, which passes from 11 to 12, and changes various elements of the system software. Net of some minor changes, the most relevant aspect of this update is the correction of a bugs in save backups which prevented them from being properly uploaded online.

Thanks to this new firmware the problem should never reoccur. Among the other updates, however, a new one stands out OS programming and a few other minor fixes. We remind you that the update is already available for download on Nintendo Switch and Switch Lite. If you've recently encountered problems with your Cloud saves, firmware 12.0.0 should have solved any glitches on your Nintendo Switch.

With this update it shouldn't happen anymore, but the great N recommend check you haven't had this problem in the past. To check, go to “HOME”> “System Settings”> “Data Management”> “Save Data Cloud” and check that an error message does not appear. This way, you should be sure that you are safe from any potential problems with your saves.

This new update, therefore, seems to have nothing to do with the much rumored arrival of Nintendo Switch PRO. According to these new rumors, Nintendo Switch Pro should come out at the end of 2021, confirming the previous rumors always proposed by the editorial staff of Bloomberg. We also talk about the screen of the new portable console, which according to these rumors will be a OLED with 720p resolution. The resolution issue is causing fans to discuss a lot, which if everything were to be officially confirmed would turn up a lot of their noses. We just have to wait for official confirmation.
