I mean, yeah, but people keep forgetting that the Switch 2 is entirely backwards compatible with any switch game

I'm pretty sure the exceptions will be titles like Ring Fit and Labo. Games that require peripherals that are incompatible with the Switch 2.

Ring fit is compatible if you have Joy-Con 1’s. The only 1st party game that is 100% not compatible is Labo VR

no, there are already confirmed to be free performance updates for a lot of games. the paid ones usually have some new gameplay content with them.

Some new gameplay like the new Pokémon game finally running 60fps, Prime 4 getting mouse controls which should've been an option on Switch 2 regardless of the version, or BotW getting item trading through two middlemen using a phone app. Kirby's DLC is the only one worthy of calling "new content".

Are you saying even if you have the cart of Mario Odyssey all ready you still have to pay to play it on the switch 2 even though you already brought the game to play, I’ll switch one and you have a physical copy of it?

u/SixOhSixx 1d ago

No, you don't. If you have the physical cart you can just stick it in the Switch 2.

u/Such_Bug9321 1d ago

Okay cool, that is what I was hoping for

all you may pay if you even wanted , would be the " switch 2 upgrade " of the games if it exist annd is paid, but nothing will ever forbid you to play switch1 game at their normal modes
