On the bright side it confirms backwards compatibility which is big.

There is a note in the trailer that some Nintendo Switch 1 games won’t be fully compatible, wonder what the differences are that makes a game compatible or not

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 35 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I’m thinking Labo and ring fit because the console and controller dimensions are different.

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I would hope you can still pair an old controller for that

My switch mostly get used for ring fit these days.

Ring Fit is such a fun game! It really gamified exercise in a way that even my ridiculous ADHD brain can't resist.

Still haven't gotten past that level with like 120 squats though.

There is no IR-sensor. So maybe the 3 games using them are not compatible.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

I am expecting something similar to PS5 backward compatibility, I think there were 11 or 12 games, out of thousands, that had compatibility issue, and even then some of those are playable, just crash now and then.

I'm thinking since there's no camera at the bottom, some games like the newest warioware won't work
