As an owner of the physical and digital version of the incredible Raiden IV x Mikado Remix I'm really hoping that when I finally get a Switch 2 I don't have to keep my original Switch just to play it!
Nothing at all there for me but I buy a Nintendo console to play first party games! Another Nintendo Direct would be nice, give me a reason to buy a Switch 2!!!
Thank goodness I only have one Switch and buy physical carts whenever possible, absolute car crash of a comment section here that I don't have to deal with 🤣🤣
I only really buy first party games for my Switch on cartridge, when and if Nintendo stop full game carts is when I will stop buying them and just play all the games I've collected over the years.
@Serpenterror if you sell the Game Key Card you're never playing the game again as it has to be inserted every time you want to play the game! The worst idea ever
@Ulysses can already see a situation where parents buy the S2 physical versions of Pokémon and MP4 only to discover they won't work on little Billy's original Switch.

Re: Rumour: Assassin's Creed Shadows On Switch 2 May Clash With Metroid Prime 4
Last two physical games I'm buying this year are SMG 1+2 and MP4. That's plenty enough for me with my backlog!

SMG off 3D all stars, not paying £50 just for the sequel!
