20121205_3ds

Not to be outdone by the Wii U, the 3DS has also received a new firmware update, bringing it to Version 4.5.0-10U. The patch brings “further improvements to overall system stability” and makes “other minor adjustments” to “enhance the user experience.” It’s reportedly quite a small patch and therefore quick to download.

Thanks, IGN.
