The reveal provided a much-anticipated glimpse of the new console’s design. It also hinted at an upcoming Mario Kart game and confirmed that this new hardware would support backward compatibility with games from the original Nintendo Switch.
Nintendo went on to clarify that the Switch 2 would play both physical and digital games from the Switch library. However, they did add a word of caution, noting that some games might not function on or be fully compatible with the new console.
