Nintendo recently released the Ver. 10.0.0 system update for the Switch and Switch Lite, and it brings a lot of long-awaited features including the ability to remap controller buttons, transfer game data to the console’s memory card, and many more.
The biggest feature in the new update is no doubt the ability to remap buttons.

Switch Lite users will also be able to customize the controls on their console. For both the Switch and Switch Lite, users can save up to five custom configurations per controller.
A feature that’s long been requested by Switch users is the ability to transfer software date from system memory to an SD card, and the new update finally brings this feature to players.
