@SciresM has just released version 0.8.3 of his Nintendo Switch custom firmware, thus marking its tenth official release.
Happy June 15th, all: Atmosphere 0.8.3 has released: This contains a bunch of bug fixes and new features (and very excitingly a feature to reboot directly from atmosphere-HOS to a payload, without the need for RCM. (note: this is not coldboot))
Cool secondary feature in AMS 0.8.3: the new system settings customization. By default, this is used to disable error report uploading, and enable USB 3.0 superspeed for homebrew (when cable/port permit it). All sorts of cool stuff is possible

Like what occurred with previous big 'N' update v6.20, they have again changed the TSEC firmware setup, blocked the previous 'smmuhax' exploit, and of course as usual added new 'Master Keys', and this time around they stopped 'package1 decryption, but now with v7.0.0-200 from Nintendo its really an 'cat & mouse' game, as already new 'keys have been found' less than a few hours after the update finally went live, but still if you wish to fully enjoy your Switch like Karen is doing so, then please stay for now on v6.2.0 and DO NOT UPDATE to v7.0.0 until you see the Official OK on the TX Front Page!
So for now please stay on v6.2.0 and to enjoy your Switch fully!

Nintendo has revised its expectation of selling 20 million Switch units by the end of the financial year -- but is confident its revenues will not suffer.
The platform holder has previously said it aims to sell 38 million units by the end of the year. Switch's lifetime sales stand at 32.27 million units, with 163.61 million software units sold.
Back in November, analysts have warned that it may fall short by nearly three million units -- although Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa recently said he remains confident the platform holder can achieve this, even without a price cut.
Nevertheless, Nintendo's fiscal results for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 show that the forecast for Switch hardware sales is now 17 million units -- three million less than the previous 20 million target.
It's a conservative note in otherwise positive financials, with Nintendo reporting net sales have risen to $9.17 billion so far in the fiscal year -- up 16.4% year-on-year over the $7.88 billion achieved in 2017.
Operating profits, meanwhile, were up 40.6% to $2.02 billion, and ordinary profit was up 23.5% to $2.21 billion.
Much of this success was driven by Switch, and by three particular titles that achieved record sales. Super Mario Party has sold more than 5.3 million units since it was released in October, while the two Pokémon Let's Go titles have shifted a combined 10 million copies.
Smash Bros is the biggest star, however, having sold 12.08 million copies since launch -- an impressive achievement given that launch was less than two months ago,
Nintendo notes sales of other first-party and third-party titles "continued to grow steadily", meaning there are now 20 Switch games that have sold more than one million units.
Digital games are also on the rise, with sales for eShop content -- including full games, download-only games and DLC -- improving 95.1% year-on-year to $774.3 million.
Naturally, this software has helped drive new hardware sales, with 14.49 million Switch units sold so far this financial year -- a 19.5% increase over the same period last year. Meanwhile, software sales have more than doubled to 94.64 million units.
As can be expected, 3DS is declining with hardware sales down 60.5% year-on-year to 2.31 million units and software sales down 64.5% to 11.08 million. The NES and SNES minis have sold 5.83 million units between them since April.
Income from mobile titles, including the firm's latest release Dragalia Lost, came in at $306.2 million -- a 14.7% increase over the year before. However, Nintendo has delayed Mario Kart Tour -- originally due this fiscal year -- to summer 2019 "in order to improve quality".

The president of Nintendo is confident the company will meet its sales target of shifting 20 million Switch units by the end of the financial year.
Speaking to The Sankei News (translated by Nintendo Everything) Shuntaro Furukawa recognised that it was a tall order, but maintained there would be no need to discount its best-selling console in order to reach this milestone.
"It is an extremely ambitious, but worthwhile achievement," he said. "So, we will maintain this goal. Nintendo Switch is our primary sales objective, and we are not considering a successor or a price cut at this time."
His comments follow analyst warnings back in November that Nintendo could miss its target by as much as three million units -- although this was before the impressive success of Super Smash Bros Ultimate.

Switch owners hoping Metroid Prime 4 might arrive this year will be disappointed as Nintendo has taken the game back to the drawing board.
The game was announced at E3 2017 with nothing more than a logo, and little has been heard since. But today, a from senior managing executive officer Shinya Takahashi reveals the game's status.
Nintendo has decided to "restart development from the beginning", with producer Kensuke Tanabe calling in Retro Studios -- the US developer behind the original Prime games -- to take over the project.
"Nintendo always strives for the highest quality in our games; and in the development phase, we challenge ourselves and confront whether the game is living up to that quality on a daily basis," Takahashi said in a YouTube video. "If we're not satisfied with the quality, we aren't able to deliver it to our customers with confidence, and the game will not live up to our fans' expectations.
"From this perspective, we have determined that the current development status of the game is very challenged, and we had to make a difficult decision as a development team. We have decided to re-examine the development structure itself and change it."
Takahashi assures that Nintendo "did not make this decision lightly" and offers "deepest heart-felt apologies", adding that Nintendo "strongly recognises the delay will come as a disappointment."
However, the platform holder believes this is necessary to "make this game something that will meet our fans' expectations" and develop a new entry that can "stand shoulder to shoulder with the past Metroid Prime series titles."

Games industry supporters came out to help one YouTuber complete Donkey Kong 64 and raise over $340,000 for trans charity Mermaids.
Mermaids is a British charity that aims to raise awareness about gender nonconformity in young people, and also provides support groups, helplines, reading materials and a lot more.
The charity has come under attack from TV writer Graham Linehan, who accuses the charity of being an aggressor that seeks to encourage sex-change procedures for children. He even started an email campaign against them to get National Lottery funding removed.

Since its launch in 2017, the Switch has been lacking one particular feature that is available on pretty much every other modern device these days: A simple web browser. Shortly after it's release, it was discovered that such a browser did in fact exist in the Switch's firmware, but could only be access by changing your DNS, which can be rather annoying and bothersome to do...until now, that is! GoldLeaf, the multipurpose homebrew software has been updated to version 0.3, and one of the changes listed is the use of the Switch's web browser, without having to DNS swap in your Switch settings!
You can checkout the full changelog of this latest update in the official GoldLeaf thread in the Switch Emulation, Homebrew & Software Projects section, as well as find links to download the latest version to give the new web browser feature a try!

Kicking things into higher gear, we are already back with the next issue of N64 Magazine. This time it's number 11 from February of 1998.
This issue is focussed on the 1998 Shoshinkai (Space World), with tons of news up upcoming games as well as a couple that would never see a release in the end.
We start off with 2 Japanese exclusives: 64 Oozumoo and Famista 64. A Sumo and Baseball game respectively. Then we move on to the reviews for San Francisco Rush, WCW vs NWO World Tour and Wild Choppers. And finally we look at the huge feature for the 1998 Shoshinkai show, followed by the keynotes of Hiroshi Yamauchi and Shigeru Miyamoto and finally the reveal of the Nintendo 64DD and it's first software.

With post-holiday sales slowing down in Japan, Nintendo software sales in the country nonetheless continue to have a pleasant January thanks to two solid new releases and continued momentum of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe nudged Super Smash Bros. Ultimate out of its top spot with its launch last Friday, and managed to sell through 52.53% of its initial shipment. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate remained in second place this week, selling 62,000 compared to nearly 200,000 last week.
Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition commanded attention on both PS4 and Nintendo Switch, as did Dragon Quest Builders 2 though the latter remains more popular on the Switch than the PS4, continuing a trend from last week.

Super Mario Advance 4 is an enhanced remake of the NES game Super Mario Brothers 3, released for the GBA. The NES original, and its SNES remake which this shares something of a codebase with, is often considered one of the best 2d Mario games. For its GBA release some extra levels and abilities were added via the "ereader" peripheral, these extras making it something of a definitive version of the title. Not all of them made it out of Japan, and as Europe never got the ereader peripheral they never made it there. There was a version released for a virtual console later on that included said levels as a Nintendo made ROM hack, however as distributing said extras as a patch is legally dubious we get to stick to the more traditional ways. In this case one of our newer members, Renegade_X135, dropped in to share their collection of newly remade dot codes, translations of the levels (the North American version not featuring a Japanese font made the level names display as jumbled nonsense), the tools they used to make it, some discussion of the effects various things have, and a level which apparently was corrupt in the older releases.
With this then no longer should you have to find said patch (which also has issues with older hacks), mess around with partially corrupt (and possibly already completed) saves or suffer other such annoyances.
You may also like to grab a copy of the palette restoration hack as it is one of the games that suffers a brightened palette (many earlier titles and ports had this to help deal with the unlit screen on the original GBA).

Captain Claw is a side-scrolling action platformer released on PCs by Monolith in 1997. The difficulty of the game is quite high, but still the game is really fun to play. Your goal is to defeat enemies, collect treasure and defeat bosses on your way. More about the game here:
Controls:
A - Fire (Pistol/Magic Claw/Dynamite)
B - Jump
X - Switch weapon
Y - Melee attack
Minus - open in-game menu
D-Pad - walk left/right, look up/down, climb up/down
You can also use the left analog to do anything the d-pad does, but it's still a bit wacky and not recommended.
There are also touch controls emulating the d-pad, which are leftovers from the Android version. They will be removed in a next beta release.
Bugs:
- not all levels are yet implemented, the game is playable to the 10th level, 11 is playable but very buggy and not yet complete
- analog controls are wacky (use the d-pad)
- music does not yet work, but in-game sounds do
- FPS drops to 55 in docked mode, making the sound a bit distorted
Cheats:
You can modify your game saves by editing /switch/claw/SAVES.XML file.
Installation:
OpenClaw.nro needs to be in the /switch/claw/ directory with all other files and assets needed to run the game.
WARNING: You need to run the game from a hbmenu NSP, it will not work from Album! (it will make the system crash)
Download:
All versions will be available here: https://github.com/djmuted/ClawSwitch/releases

DCEmu Coder Jayenkai has released a new homebrew game for the Nintendo 2DS/3DS:
This is a sequel to a game I made back in 2015, which was loosely based on the 8-bit classic Cybernoid.
Fly around the maze in your bubble-bot vehicle, blasting away enemy craft, and destroying the barrels in search of the three floppy disks which can be taken back to your hub to save each level.
Your primary weapon is a simple little lazer, but you also have a selection of 4 other weapons that you can gather up ammo for, along the way.
Use your secondary weapons sparingly as you explore, and beware of all the baddies.
Keep enough distance between you and the barrels that you aren't ambushed.

Looking at various sales reports from different regions over the last month, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is enjoying a number of top spots following its December launch. And globally, those numbers add up.
As shared by Kantan Games CEO Dr. Serkan Toto on Twitter, Japanese daily newspaper Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun ran a brief interview with Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa today in which Furukawa revealed that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate sold over five million copies globally in its first week.
That figure should come as no surprise after the game landed as the fastest-selling Smash Bros. game in the UK, topped the EMEAA region charts in its debut week, sold three million copies in the US alone in the first eleven days, and sold 1.24 million copies in three days in Japan alone.
Later in the interview, Furukawa also mentioned that Nintendo Switch software sales are unprecedented for Nintendo - apparently the fastest so far in Nintendo's history for a home console.
