Nintendo Switch Update 5.0.2 Lands

April 17, 2018 by Jordan Coetsee

Mainly stability fixes here.

Nintendo’s hybrid console, the Switch, has just received a new update. Unfortunately, the update doesn’t do much to the console – rather it just adds some usual stability fixes and issues with the moton controls. Here are the improvements included in version 5.0.2

General system stability improvements to enhance the user’s experience, including:

  • Resolved an issue that caused motion controls to respond incorrectly when playing games that use the feature
  • Resolved an issue that caused user icons for recommended friends to not display correctly

How to update your Nintendo Switch console

  1. If your Nintendo Switch is connected to the internet, your console will download the update automatically.
  2. Once the download is complete, you’ll be asked if you’d like to install the update. Be sure to save any game progress before you continue.
  3. When you’re ready to install the update, choose “update” to install. Your console will restart to complete the update.

Have you had any issues with your console warranting the fix? Let us know down in the comments below.
