Sounds like Switch 2 now supports LE Audio/LC3 codec for low latency? The setting looks similar to Sony Sound Connect’s “Bluetooth connection quality” (image below):
• Sound quality (LDAC/AAC/high bitrate SBC)
• Stable connection (low bitrate SBC)
• Low latency (LC3)

[Nintendo Switch 2 System Update]
Version 21.0.0 adds a way to view the peak brightness value when adjusting HDR settings in TV mode.
This change appears to have been mistranslated in the English patch notes, as it says an entirely different setting was changed.
(thanks sky!)

As discovered by Retro Game Future, the so-called physical release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered only comes with 19 GB of data on the PS5 disc. This is far from the full game size. We are expecting a Hogwarts Legacy scenario. Stay tuned for more details.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.
