These Nintendo Switch games need Switch 2 Editions
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
A couple months back, we wrote a big list of games that would benefit from performance patches on Nintendo Switch 2. That was before we knew exactly how Switch 2 Editions worked, though – and it was also before we knew Switch 2 Editions existed at all. Right now, six first and second-party Nintendo games have Switch 2 Editions: Metroid Prime 4, Pokemon Legends Z-A, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Zelda Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, and Super Mario Party Jamboree. These upgrades are all paid, and then several more games are getting free performance patches on Switch 2. Today, we’re going over existing Switch games that aren’t on either of these lists that could really use the performance or resolution boost.

As Nintendo Switch 2 approaches and with the release of a big firmware update this release for the company’s current system, something you might want to be made aware of (if you haven’t already) is a new portal site for Nintendo Accounts.
A website for Nintendo Accounts was previously started, which still exists. That site has also seen a few changes, but it currently houses user information, sign in and security settings, the ability to manage Family Groups, privacy and other settings, and a QR code for event check ins. Managing passes, checking on My Nintendo points, and various items related to funds and payments are on the new portal site.
