Nintendo Switch 2 And Switch Share The Same Firmware

Interesting news – it seems that both Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch share the same firmware versions.

In a video posted on the Nintendo Today! app, a screen capture shows that the Switch 2 in the video is on firmware version 20.1.0. This version is slightly ahead of the Switch’s 20.0.1 version released on May 1, 2025.

Both the Switch 2 and Switch are the first Nintendo platforms to have operating systems that share the same firmware versions.

While this may seem unusual for a new game console, it’s not unusual for smartphones and PCs – there could be many new and different models, as well as features exclusive to certain smartphones, but they can all share the same firmware.

What do you think? Let us know in the comments.
