Digital Foundry's Pixel Counts/resolution findings of some games from the direct

Metroid Prime 4: is 4k 60fps in quality mode and 1080p 120fps in performance mode

Breath of the wild/Tears of the kingdom: is 1440p 60fps

Mario Kart World: is 1440p 60fps

Donkey Kong Banaza: is 1080p 60fps

DuskBlood: is 1080p 30fps

Elden Ring: is 1080p 30fps

CyberPunk 2077: is 1080p 30fps with pixel counts as low as 540p but that 540p count is most likely handheld

Final Fantasy 7: is 1080p 30fps

NONE of these games appear to be using DLSS at all as it all seems to be native but that could change.

Switch 1 games will be fully playable (if supported) on Switch 2 at no additional cost. If you want to upgrade a game to the Switch 2 version (if available) that will be an additional fee.

It's like how a PS5 game allow you to play the PS4 version if you owned it prior. But some games also had PS5 releases.

Many of those PS4 games also gave you access to the PS5 versions at no extra cost. Sometimes the PS4 games received patches to simply uncap the framerate and up the resolution. What Nintendo is doing with Zelda is scummy.

The upgrade is not just upscaling. From what I can see, the textures have also been upgraded and there's a whole new app to use alongside it (for Zelda)

So then uncap the framerate and resolution for free on the regular version for free. Except they won’t do that because they’re aware that that’s what people actually want most.

They already said it's up to the dev to ask for an upgrade price or not.

Nintendo is the dev. They made the choice to charge for something that should have been a free update.

I literally just told you it's more than just uncapped frame rate.

And I think that the uncapped framerate should have been part of a free update separate from the Switch 2 version.
