How Much to Upgrade Switch Games to Switch 2 Edition?
Nintendo has announced the cost of upgrading select Switch games to their Switch 2 editions. Titles like Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Super Mario Party Jamboree will cost more than the $9.99 upgrade fee for Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. UK prices are listed at £16.99 / €19.99, reflecting the higher price point.
Switch 2 Game-Key Cards?
Almost all third-party Switch 2 games in Japan are Game-Key Cards, and the trend seems to be holding in the West. In the U.S., examples include Sonic X Shadow Generations and Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut. Only four third-party physical Switch 2 games are not Game-Key Cards: Cyberpunk 2077, Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion, Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, and No Sleep For Kaname Date - From AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES Aiba Edition.
