Players who win a 10x Battle during Splatfests will now be announced on the Anarchy Splatcast, similar to how the news ticker in Splatoon 2 worked.

Apparently, a lot of more of online Tableturf Battle was implemented and I just never noticed.
In version 2.0.0+, you can actually open a room and sit down at the tables! (Though, a match won’t actually start.)

[Nintendo Switch Firmware Update]
Version 16.0.0 is out. 🧵
This update appears to be focused on the internals of the OS.
The way the OS handles bad word checking was slightly redesigned. The code was moved into its own module seemingly to avoid unnecessary code duplication.
248
[Splatoon 3]
Looks like the servers are experiencing problems.
Very inconvenient timing, considering that a Splatfest is active right now. twitter.com/NinStatusBot/s…
249
[Splatoon 2 / ARMS / Super Mario Maker 2 / Animal Crossing: New Horizons]
There were multiple security vulnerabilities (out-of-bounds read / write, nullptr deref) which could allow an attacker to crash your game or run arbitrary code remotely.
These were fixed by the updates.
250
[Splatoon 3]
Nintendo is adding online multiplayer support for some single player campaign mechanics.
Affected objects:
- Gushers (splatoonwiki.org/wiki/Gusher)
- Splat-Switches (splatoonwiki.org/wiki/Splat-Swi…)
Not sure what these will be used for.
