Nintendo Switch Update Ver. 4.0.0 Live! Some video capture, transfer profiles/saves

Awesome about the saves and profiles. Does that mean I can copy my fiancee's profile and Stardew Valley save to a new Switch and it will work just fine? I'd still have to buy a copy on her profile though right?
 
Posted before, but yeah, my old screenshots from my previous Switch just appeared in my new Switch's album. I'm using the same SD card from that first Switch and I'm 100% sure that those pictures weren't there before!

Awesome that I get to have them again!

Huh. The new News section seems larger/more zoomed. I kinda prefered the tiny look so I could see more at once. Hmm

I like it. Makes it look cleaner and lets each article be more distinct. The old way looked too cramped.
 
Huh, on the news channel it says "compatible with Mario Kart 8 ver. 1.3.0"


My MK8 is 1.2.1...... update incoming?


Edit: I'm downloading MK8 update now.

Sucks that video capture isn’t global. And I’d like save backups along with the transfer function. Good update though.

Cool, 30 second clips are perfect when finding unexpected glitches in some cases. Remember learning about the 15 min recording feature in horizon zero dawn when some strange stuff happened, was really happy to get it recorded!

This is probably their smartest move with a update yet, right before oddesey to fill twitter and facebook with clips from that, either from people sharing something interesting, or just trying out the functionality, maximizing the exposure of word of mouth "advertizing".

Does the twitterclips flash black for anyone else when watching the ones linked in the thread?, kinda strange issue imo.

so how does the save transfer work? like system transfer in 3ds? well, it's not cloud saving, but it sure is a step in the right direction..

30 seconds is in line with the Xbox one default, and that's plenty. I can guarantee I'm never watching a 15 minute clip my friends recorded, but I watch short clips all the time.

For the video capture, is it recording staring when you press the button, or is it capturing your last 30 seconds when you press the button?
 
From Nintendo's Update page:
Pre-purchase option on Nintendo eShop

A pre-purchase option will be available for certain games. This option allows pre-load of the game to your system for quicker play when the game is released.
This feature will be supported by future game releases

Yes! I don't ever pre-order months in advance or anything, but I know I'm going to buy a game usually a day or two before it releases. Especially for games like Super Mario Odyssey that I know are going to be amazing, it's nice to have the game ready to play at midnight. Here's to Odyssey being available for pre-purchase/pre-load.

Just had first full on freeze on switch with this update, browsed the store to see what was on pre-order and the whole thing just crashed. Not a good start...
