In a social media post today, Panic Button shared the news that it worked with Nintendo to update a number of Switch 1 games for Switch 2.
When the new system launched earlier this year, select first-party titles were patched to play even better on the console. We saw things like enhanced frame rates, increased resolution, and HDR support.
What’s surprising here is that these updates weren’t done by Nintendo internally. In its social media post, Panic Button said:
It’s been revealed that Shuten Order, which came to Switch not too long ago, is now getting a Nintendo Switch 2 Edition. This will be available on November 27, 2025.
There are a couple of elements to the new version. First, higher frame rates are supported. Mouse controls are also included for supported scenes.
For those that need a refresher on the game, check out the following overview:
Nintendo Switch Online has added in a new set of icons, which celebrates the release of Kirby Air Riders. They can be claimed on both Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch.

November 11: Those that have been on the lookout for the Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds x SpongeBob DLC will be happy to know that we now have the release date. Fans can get their hands on it starting November 19, 2025.
