As a gamer, I just experienced the not-so-fun side of gaming: the dreaded system crash after Nintendo’s latest Switch firmware update (Version 20.0.0) earlier this week, supposedly in anticipation for the Switch 2. It seems that the law of unintended consequences holds true here – the moment I tinkered with the update, my beloved console started acting up. Some fellow gamers have been grappling with similar issues, rendering their Switches virtually unusable. Luckily, Nintendo has stepped in to address this, releasing a quick fix (Version 20.0.1) aimed at smoothing out any lingering bugs and getting our gaming back on track.
To avoid encountering error 2206-1015 upon startup in the future, you’ll initially need to manually implement the provided hotfix within your console system.
How to fix Nintendo Switch error 2206-1015
To compel a system upgrade on a switch displaying error 2206-1015, it’s necessary to enter the maintenance mode of the console. Here are the steps to accomplish this:
1. Power on your switch and wait for it to boot up.
2. Press and hold the ‘Ctrl’ key while you press the ‘Break’ key (if your switch has a break key). If it doesn’t have a break key, you may need to press and hold both ‘Ctrl’ and ‘V’ keys simultaneously.
3. As soon as you see the login prompt, release the ‘Ctrl’ or ‘Ctrl+V’ keys and enter your username and password.
4. Once logged in, type “enable” followed by the “enter” key to access privileged mode.
5. Type “configure terminal” followed by the “enter” key to start configuration mode.
6. Enter the command “system-recovery” and press “enter”. This will initiate the system update process.
7. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the update process.
- Power down your Switch.
- Hold down the volume up and down buttons on your Switch. They are located right next to the power button.
- While holding down the two volume buttons, press the power button.
- Keep holding down the two volume buttons until maintenance mode appears.
- Once maintenance mode is active, select the “Update System” option and follow the instructions on the screen.
Using this update, your Nintendo Switch can automatically grab and install the most recent firmware version without encountering the 2206-1015 error during installation. However, if you’re experiencing different problems, this approach won’t offer a solution at present; in that case, it would be best to reach out to customer support.
