Big Brain Academy Brain Vs Brain — Nspupdate 1
Version 1.1.0 of Big Brain Academy: Brain vs. Brain (released December 23, 2021) introduced a "Creepy Crawlies" filter to remove insects and reptiles from specific mini-games, alongside improved visibility for the age-hiding feature. The update also resolved a bug where opponent Ghosts stopped moving in Ghost Clash mode and included minor general fixes. Read the full patch notes at Nintendo Everything .
- Fairer games: If you were matched against players far above or below your level, you’ll likely find opponents that make matches feel meaningful.
- Strategy shifts: Because accuracy got a bit more value, slowing down for a precise answer can sometimes outscore a risky speedy guess.
- Tighter feel online: The latency and sync fixes make remote contests feel more like local splitscreen races.
- Cleaner results: Fewer scoreboard glitches and clearer indicators reduce post-match confusion.
- Matchmaking smoothing: The update improves how matches pair players of similar performance, reducing wildly uneven encounters and making one-on-one sessions more consistently competitive.
- Score-scaling adjustments: Small rebalances to how speed and accuracy convert to points. Fast-but-error-prone plays are slightly less rewarded, while measured accuracy gets a small boost.
- Latency compensation: Better synchronization of stimulus timing between players, so both see the same prompts at nearly identical moments — fewer “my screen lagged” complaints.
- UI feedback tweaks: Clearer on-screen indicators for tie situations and for when a player gains or loses a decisive lead mid-round.
- Bug fixes: Resolved a rare case where duplicated prompts could appear in the same round, and fixed an issue where end-of-round rankings didn’t update immediately.
