The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword’s always been a bit of a black sheep of the franchise, but Nintendo gave it another chance when they launched its HD remaster for the Switch about a month ago. Now, they’ve released the game’s first update as well- and it’s… well, it’s not exactly chunky.
Version 1.0.1 of the game has gone live, and it’s got some of the briefest patch notes you’ll ever see. “Fixed several issues to improve the gameplay experience,” the patch notes say.

Nintendo hasn’t even specified exactly what issues have been addressed or exactly how the gameplay has been improved, so you’re just going to have to play the game yourself to figure that out, I guess.
