How Much to Upgrade Switch Games to Switch 2 Edition?

Nintendo has confirmed the upgrade costs for two more Switch games to their Switch 2 editions: Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Super Mario Party Jamboree. Upgrading from the original Switch edition to the Switch 2 version of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom costs $9.99. However, upgrading Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Super Mario Party Jamboree will be more than double that price. While U.S. prices are not yet available on the American Nintendo eShop, the UK Nintendo eShop lists the upgrade pack at £16.99 / €19.99, significantly higher than the £7.99 / €9.99 charged for Zelda upgrades.

Switch 2: Game-Key Cards?

It's been revealed that nearly all physical third-party Nintendo Switch 2 games in Japan are Game-Key Cards, and it appears the same trend is emerging in the West. In the US, Sega's Switch 2 games, such as Sonic X Shadow Generations and Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut, are listed as Game-Key Cards. So far, only four third-party physical Switch 2 games have been found that aren't 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.

Switch 2 Game Previews

IGN recently had the chance to go hands-on with two of the most anticipated Switch 2 launch titles, Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World. Both are available for preorder now, and here's what our reviewers had to say:

Donkey Kong Bananza: "I also think Bananza is on track to be one of the most gorgeous Nintendo games I’ve seen. It really does take advantage of Switch 2's hardware – the environments are beautiful and DK’s animations are wonderfully expressive, and I left feeling like the next generation of first-party Nintendo games had truly arrived."

Mario Kart World: "Mario Kart World feels like the definitive Switch 2 launch game and will certainly be one of the defining games of the Switch 2 generation. The new open world format and Knockout Tour modes are massive new additions to the franchise, the visuals are gorgeous, the gameplay is a blast, and we can’t wait to play more, even if we wish it was a few bucks cheaper."
