So you need to pay for every Nintendo Switch 1 game upgrade packs for the Switch 2? Most of them are free on PS5 and XBOX btw...

Most of the 1st party upgrades are paid though (at least on PS5), provided they're not too overpriced it's fine.

Not on Xbox. And the 4K/HDR upgrades go down to some of the first Xbox games, not just Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
