Nintendo has released System Update 23.0.1 for both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, addressing an issue introduced with the previous version that could cause software to take an unusually long time to respond.
According to Nintendo’s patch notes, the update fixes an issue from system version 23.0.0 where software could occasionally take a long time to start, pause, or close. Version 23.0.1 was released on September 30, 2026.
The update is a minor maintenance release and does not introduce any new features. Nintendo’s focus with the patch is instead on resolving the software response issue affecting systems running version 23.0.0.
Nintendo Switch Update 23.0.1 is available for both the original Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. Users can update their consoles through the system settings to install the latest version.
