So, many people, myself included, have been experiencing an issue, where whenever we close Minecraft in 1.16.20 on the Nintendo Switch, the whole console just seizes and freezes up. This only has been happening though in 1.16.20 and only on the Nintendo Switch release of the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft, but not on any other devices (from what I am aware of) or on any prior version of the game. The game will open and play fine, its just when you go back to the home menu to close the game, it seizes the entire console. PLEASE do anything you can to fix this issue!!! I really hate my switch seizing so much since I play the Switch version the most out of all the other versions right now! It's getting frustrating!
