Nintendo Switch 2 is here, and the gaming world is abuzz with updates and fixes! But are all your favorite games compatible?
In a recent system firmware update, Nintendo addressed some crucial compatibility issues, ensuring a smoother gaming experience for Switch 2 users. The update brings good news for Pokémon fans, as it seems the 2021 releases, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, have been stabilized. These games had been experiencing crashes on the new hybrid system, but Nintendo's 21.2.0 system firmware update has reportedly resolved these issues, as confirmed on their software compatibility page.
And it's not just Pokémon games getting some love. The unique 'RTS, tower defense, and match-3' game Cats on Duty (yes, you read that right!) is now fully supported on the Switch 2. But here's where it gets controversial—while some games are getting updates, others are still awaiting fixes. Nintendo has acknowledged audio issues with Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe on the Switch 2, and gamers are eagerly awaiting a solution.
The compatibility updates are a welcome step, but they also raise questions. Will all Switch games eventually be compatible with the Switch 2? And what about the games that haven't received updates yet? The gaming community is curious, and the comments section is buzzing with discussions and requests for specific game updates.
