I think that sums up that they’re aiming only for parents with kids that would pay ransom for their products.

Got it for free with DLC on my steamdeck
What are the details? Base OS, or you install something else? Emulator I assume?
I use Yuzu then setup the gyro. Works quite well. The deck does struggle with TotK but otherwise not too bad
Does Yuzu work on SteamOS or did you boot a different OS? Definitely want to get a steam deck someday.
Works fine with steamOS. I use Emulation Station as my front end though. It’s a little easier to get to the game that way
Just got Second Wind working yesterday too! Care to supply your options to get better FPS?
I think FSR helps the most so far. Otherwise it’s just older hardware. Oh and make sure you’re handheld mode
The question is, will Nintendo Accounts (the thing Nintendo made so you didn’t have to get a new type of account with every damn console) that already have the DLC be able to use it on the Switch 2 with the Switch 2 version of the game?
Technically, there shouldn’t be any meaningful reason why not. Aren’t the Switch 2 versions just asset upgrades? Maybe a wee bit of coding to adapt the existing software to newer hardware. So if they’re smart they’ll say “Yes.”
The best reason for a no would be that Nintendo will not have yet updated the assets that are included in the DLC. Meaning people who own the DLC would get to use them at a later date when the teams doing these ports have time to get to them.
The worst reason to say no would be “Buy them again, cucks.”
Switch 2 uses emulation to run switch 1 games. My guess is that the switch2 version is just nicer textures and a little make more fps line.
(Like that thing those evil evil hackers have been doing since 2017)
I had Breath of the Wild on Wii U with DLC and actually called Nintendo to try to get it transferred to the Switch or reimbursed. They outright refused, and said they were different products and I needed to buy it again.
My guess is they’ll demand we pay again.
But will the DLC still work properly if you already have it? Or do we have to buy a switch 2 version of it.
Same for Pokémon or any other games with DLC moving to the switch 2 with or without upgrades.
I am hoping all purchases transfer and work at least as they do now for the switch games.
70€ for an 8 year old game. And they don’t include the DLC. Nintendo.
Nintendo never put old games on sale.
It would not be a sale to include the DLC on the Switch 2 version. I mean are they gonna offer it on the Switch 2 store? lmao
Yeah, it’s the same price. Right now if you want BOTW on the Switch it costs $60 for the game and $20 for the DLC. On the Switch 2 it will be $70 for the game and $20 for the DLC. If you already own the game on the Switch it’s $10 to upgrade (or free with NSO). Basically they’re just charging an optional $10 for the enhanced graphics. You can still play the original version on the Switch 2 at no extra cost.
Free if you already own it on your sw1 isn’t it?
Yeah
Of course not. Who would expect that from Nintendo 🫠
If I remember correctly, I got Red Dead 1 to play on my Xbox one x (god I hate their naming scheme) and not only did the disc actually contain all the game data, it would also still function if I put it into a 360, and on top of that, my one x downloaded graphical patches and textures automatically FOR FREE. Even Microsoft did a better job about backwards compatibility (after eating a humble pie on the Xbox one launch disaster). Anyway dont buy Nintendo products. Nintendo bad.
nintendo isn’t out here murdering puppies or trying to get people disappeared. disagree with their business practices all you want but it’s not like they have a gun to your head. this “nintendo bad” narrative just because people are mad the the pricing structure is juvenile.
EDIT: yall can stay big mad and downvote like you won’t just eventually buy the stupid thing anyway. lol. have fun.
No, it’s because Nintendo bad. They are incredibly anti consumer.

Nintendo is the Apple of gaming. That’s not a compliment.
Their pricing, legal treatment of free fan games/romhacks, insecure legal actions towards games that resemble their own like Pokémon and Palworld, their warpath against emulators despite doing fuck all to preserve their own Library in a convenient way for consumers. Yes, Nintendo bad.
My purchases in 2025 won’t include a Nintendo Switch 2.
No further questions. Thank you.
I think they’re even worse than <insert any AAA company that’s headquartered over the pond> combined at this point.
They might be worse than Hitler even.
Have you ever been to Britain after Brexit with an EU passport?
No.
Good for you. But for context, you land, you go for a passport check, where you need to find the flag of European Union, which is on a sign with flags of a bunch of Commonwealth countries. The officer asks you some questions, like why are you here, where do you stay, and so on.
tl;dr: It’s annoying and sad.
Ok.
This is something real to get angry over, for people looking for reasons, you’re welcome ;)
Aren’t they just saying that if you don’t own the DLC, the upgrade won’t add it?
deleted by creator
That’s not fucking true. It’s $70 if you don’t own it for switch 1, $10 if you own the switch 1 version, and free if you own the switch 1 version and pay for Nintendo’s online membership. If you own the dlc for switch 1, you can play it on switch 2, if not it’s $20
Pirating Nintendo games is ethical.

Stephanie Sterling made this argument 8 years ago, and as always, is repeatedly vindicated.

Oof, that’s real shitty.
