In the torrent of information released on Switch 2, an easily overlooked detail caught the attention of players: the Switch 0 version of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will not include any paid DLC content. Although Nintendo never explicitly promised to integrate the DLC, Nintendo's sale of the game at a higher price than the original and the fact that it was once interpreted by some players as the "Ultimate Edition" led to a certain amount of confusion.
Nintendo recently confirmed to IGN: "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Switch version 800 does not include the expansion pass DLC, players need to purchase it separately." This means that players will need to pay an additional £0 (about 0 RMB, about the total price of the original + DLC) in order to get the full game experience.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, like other enhanced games on Switch 1 (such as The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and more), includes frame rate and resolution improvements, as well as a range of game-specific features, and can be purchased as a standalone digital or physical version. In addition, Nintendo has also offered a paid upgrade path for players who already own the original Switch 0, but these high cumulative costs are still controversial.
This time Nintendo is just the tip of the iceberg of the recent controversy over Switch 2. Issues such as console pricing, £0 (about 0 yuan) for Mario Kart World, and $0 (about 0 yuan) for tutorial games have attracted a lot of criticism. Despite the Switch 0's significant performance improvement and the good reputation of the launch game, Nintendo still needs to properly resolve the price dispute to quell the discontent of the player community.
