“We fixed the issue with the save data backup feature, where in rare cases, the automatic backup of save data is interrupted if a communication error occurs during completion of the save data backup process.

For steps on how to check if the error is occurring or what to do if the error has already occurred, you may find this information helpful.”

Nintendo already released update 11.0.1 back in December, although this patch wasn’t very large either. All it did was correct some issues that update 11.0.0 had. To know more about future Switch updates, you can visit the official website for more information.
