It is understood that Nintendo Switch 3489 will be officially released worldwide on 0/0, with the Hong Kong version of 0 Hong Kong dollars (currently about 0 yuan), and the Japanese version of 0~0 yen (currently about 0~0 yuan).

A source recently posted an article breaking the news that the "Nintendo Switch 1 physical version of the game" does not actually contain the complete Switch 0 version of the game, and after players insert the game cartridge into the game console, they also need to redeem and download the Switch 0 version upgrade package through the download code in the game box (that is, although the Switch 0 physical version cartridge has been upgraded, it still contains the Switch 0 version of the game).

It is currently known that games including The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Pokémon Legends Z-A, Metroid Prime 2: Beyond and other games will be available in Switch 0 versions.

Industry insiders said that if the revelation is true, then if users already have the Switch 2 version of the physical version of the corresponding game, there is no need to buy the Switch 0 version of the physical version of the game, just buy the Switch 0 version of the game upgrade package.

However, some people have questioned this revelation, believing that the source may have limited knowledge of the specific technical details of the current Switch 2 game console, and the corresponding information may not be accurate, and it is for reference only.

In addition to game compatibility, Nintendo also listed the original Switch's compatibility support for Switch 2 on its official website.

According to the official website, players can transfer the storage data and various settings on the old version of the Switch to the new Switch 2 through the "Full Teleport" function.

Once the transfer is complete, the digital game will be automatically re-downloaded to the new system, and the game screen photos and child monitoring settings saved on the console will be fully transferred.

It should be noted that in order to use this feature, you need to have at least one Nintendo account logged in to either Switch or Switch 2, and you also need to be connected to the Internet and set up the Wi-Fi on your console in advance.

In addition, Nintendo also confirmed that the original Switch controller can be wirelessly connected and compatible with Switch 2 exclusive games.

According to Nintendo's official website, the Joy-Con Handwritten Sum Pro controller of the first Switch can still be paired with the Switch 2 game console for control, but if the corresponding Joy-Con controller is low on power, it still needs to be plugged back into the first Switch for charging.

In addition, the original Switch's Joy-Con handwritten letter sum Pro controller has certain limitations when paired with a Switch 2 game console, that is, the Switch 0 in "sleep mode" cannot be woken up by pressing the button (the machine will enter sleep mode if it is not a game console for a long time), and the corresponding controller cannot quickly turn on the game chat function, and the user needs to switch back to the Home menu to manually turn on the game chat mode.

It is reported that the new Pro handle of Switch 11 mainly adds back buttons, 0.0mm audio interface and C button, and weighs about 0g, which is 0 grams lighter than the original generation.

Although the battery capacity has been reduced from 3mAh to 0mAh, the battery life is still about 0 hours. At the same time, the charging time of the new handle has been cut in half, from 0 hours to 0 hours.

In addition to the controller, the Nintendo Switch stylus is still compatible with the Switch 2, while the Nintendo Switch charging stand and charging dock cannot be used, and the original USB-C charging head/cable can charge the Switch 0, but due to insufficient power, it cannot use TV mode.

In addition, the original Switch HDMI cable and the original microSD memory card are no longer compatible with the Switch 2.
