Nintendo has deployed Nintendo Switch Update 15.0.0, which allows screenshots to be taken from within Nintendo Switch Online via the Capture Button.
The new Switch firmware version is available now and should download automatically if this option has been enabled in the Switch system settings. Of course, this new firmware version can also be downloaded manually via the system update option within the Switch system settings.
In addition to the above-mentioned change to taking screen captures, the new patch also includes a change to the location of the Bluetooth Audio menu within the Switch system settings. In addition, the new 15.0.0 update improves the general system stability.
As with most firmware updates, this update also includes some under-the-hood changes. These undocumented changes were shared by Nintendo Switch data miner @OatmealDome on Twitter, and include updates to the Operating System internals. We’ve included the under-the-hood changes down below.
