Prelude v4.0.3 — fixes the Pokémon Sword/Shield crash when connecting from Y-Comm
On console, pressing + in the Y-Comm to connect to the internet crashed Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield (1.3.2) with error 2124-0400.
The game asks the console what kind of Nintendo Switch Online membership the user has, and closes itself if that check fails. Prelude already works around the same check for Pokémon Scarlet/Violet, Legends: Z-A and Minecraft Dungeons II; this release adds the same small patch for Sword and Shield (pkmnswsh-nextendo/).
What you need to do
- Update Prelude.
- Open Prelude and select Nextendo mode again so the new patch is copied to your SD card.
- Restart the console, then start the game.
Who needs this
Anyone playing Pokémon Sword or Shield 1.3.2 online on a console. Emulator players are not affected.
Tested
The crash and its cause were confirmed from an Atmosphère crash report (Shield 1.3.2). The patched build has not been tested on a console yet.
