I wonder if Nintendo's servers will get overloaded with everyone trying to download the firmware update that day so some will have to wait and perhaps a lot of firmware updates will fail downloading part way through?
I wonder what the big reason for Nintendo doing this is with regard what part of the firmware needed a very late update. Maybe Nintendo have been checking for security loopholes in the system trying to make sure there is no back door to piracy in the firmware. The Switch 2 has been so long in development with the T239 Nvidia chipset dated to 2020/2021 which is when Nvidia launched more powerful PC graphic cards based on the same architecture you would think at this point it would be in quite a advanced and refined level of development. I think its just about controlling the experience myself mainly and maybe there is some bad news about the spec that they didn't want people to know about until after launch. Maybe a difference between retail units and the development units that we have seen so far. Maybe battery life will struggle to reach 2 hours in the most demanding games with full screen brightness.
