Start up the game and see if it has ver 1.3 in the bottom corner. If it does, you got it.
Title screen says version 1.3. Is that the newest?
Edit: Seems like it is. Thanks guys.

I'm not noticing any sub-native visual downgrade in portable mode. If there is, it's gotta be tiny. This isn't like Snake Pass which looked like a blurry nightmare.
The frame rate also struggles in story mode, but it's definitely a huge improvement from before.
Yup. The update should just download regardless, then when you next put the cart in it'll apply the update. Takes about 10 seconds.

As infernal says, yes. If you're connected to the net it should start updating immediately. Mine began the very second I got to the home screen :3

Just played some online multiplayer at a solid 60FPS. Finally, it plays like it should have all along.
This game is a perfect piece of evidence as to why frame rate matters. I wonder if there is anyone who honestly can't notice a difference between the launch version and this, and thinks frame rate in games is not a big deal.
I mean, Unity is meant for little indie developers to use for games they'll be charging ~$10 for, not for big publishers like Konami to spend less money.

It was made with Unity, which seems to have a really high overhead cost to performance, from the few console games I've played that were made with it, like Grow Home. Basically all these advancements in technology in terms of CPU and GPU horsepower seem to be going towards developers utilizing awful middleware to cut production costs.

Android Assault Cactus also uses unity, maintains a solid 60 fps and is doing way more than Bomberman.
Unity just allows bad devs to create games more easily, the games still perform badly though.

Forgive my possibly stupid question but you say the game is now 60fps and that it plays online like it should. Has the decrease in lag online got anything to do with the fps now being 60?
I used SBR as a leaping-off point to talk about the state of patching on Switch. I can't create threads, but if people are into this, go to town: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2017...icy-change-has-saved-at-least-one-switch-game

the patch has more post than the official OT http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1349375
It shows that there is more interest in the patch than the game.
