Nintendo’s replaced the eShop on original Switch leading to better performance

Nintendo Eshop

One of the biggest issues with the Nintendo eShop on the original Nintendo Switch system was the pesky lag which was readily apparent when you tried to navigate it. Today, Nintendo has released a native eShop app on the Nintendo Switch. The previous eShop was a web-based one, and it now performs a lot better than the previous eShop. While it hasn’t completely eradicated the lag, it does appear to be a lot smoother experience. There’s also the option to browse the eShop using Dark Mode, which is a bit better on the eyes.

  1. Dang, how many years we had to struggle to get game icons to load and now I basically buy nothing on Switch anymore

  2. I don’t have my OG Switch with me, but on Switch 2 eShop is not native, it’s based on Next.js.
    Same for built-in Nintendo Switch Online app.

    1. (suggestion: always be polite and considerate (one more suggestion: this Biblical verse: “Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.” – Ephesians 4:29, New Living Translation version))
