Nintendo Switch versions of Minecraft load extremely long and all that wait, for it to just crash! This has been an ongoing issue since 1.16.1.

Steps to replicate

1. Open the Minecraft Game
2. Wait for the game to load (Will take up to an hour)
3. Once the game's loaded, the Switch closes the application with the Error message; "The software was closed because an error occurred."

Other things that may happen

1. The game indefinitely loads.
2. The game loads very long, but still opens as normal. (Happened on a different switch)
3. The switch goes into sleep mode due to loss of battery.
4. The switch turns off due to it's auto-sleep mode feature.

Things I tried to fix the issue

1. Uninstalling and Reinstalling (didn't work)
2. Using a different Nintendo Account (worked briefly)
3. Updating Minecraft and the Switch several times (didn't work)
4. Checked if there was anything wrong with either the game or the switch (found nothing wrong)

This has made Switch Minecraft unplayable, please fix?
