We still know next to nothing about the Nintendo Switch 2, but one of the biggest questions about the Switch successor has now been answered. According to Nintendo, the next Nintendo Switch console will be backward compatible with games from the original Switch. While exactly what that means is still up in the air, at least some of the games in your current library will be playable on the Switch 2.
“This is Furukawa,” Nintendo wrote on social media, repeating a format that’s already become a meme after previous announcements. “At today's Corporate Management Policy Briefing, we announced that Nintendo Switch software will also be playable on the successor to Nintendo Switch. Nintendo Switch Online will be available on the successor to Nintendo Switch as well.”
