DieBecomes downwards compatible, so you can play most switch titles on the successor console. But apparently Nintendo also plans so-called Nintendo Switch 2 editions of Switch games. For example, they could be graphically improved as enhanced editions or run with more FPS.
Nintendo apparently reveals in the small print that there are Nintendo Switch 2 editions of Switch titles
That's what it's about:At yesterday's Nintendo Direct Show, among other things, the new, borrowableannounced. With their help you can also give digitally bought games. On the associated website, a very exciting note is hidden in the small print.
Nintendo Switch 2 editions:The decisive sentence in the small print of theofficial US Nintendo pageThe virtual software cards are as follows.
"Nintendo Switch 2-exclusive games and Nintendo Switch 2-Edition games can only be loaded on the Nintendo Switch 2 system."
That there will be Switch 2-Exclusives, really no surprise, that was more than foreseeable. But what about these Switch 2 editions?
That could be behind it:Two scenarios are most likely. The name fits two ideas or approaches that Nintendo could mean:
- Cross-gene title:The switch 2 versions of games, which also also appear for the first switch, are called that.
- Enhanced Editions:Maybe we are also dealing with a Switch 2-boost for older Switch titles. Similarthat has given some PS4 titles a better frame rate or more graphic details.
The latter would of course make a lot of senseAnd should be really happy. After all, it would be possible to have titles likeorfinally to be able to play with a frame rate beyond the 30 fps.
