In the world of gaming technology, news that captures the attention of both gaming enthusiasts and new users rarely appears. This time, Nintendo is responding to expectations by announcing that their upcoming console, tentatively called Switch 2, will offer backward compatibility with titles from the first Switch.

The new console will be based on ARM architecture, which will facilitate the implementation of backward compatibility. The current sales of the first Switch amount to an impressive 146 million units, and the total number of sold games has exceeded 1.3 billion, making it the most successful Nintendo console.

In the future, the company plans to provide more information regarding the details of this compatibility, including aspects related to the support of physical cards. Nintendo emphasizes that their goal is to continue supporting the development of games and the platform at new levels, while maintaining a bond with existing users. This move may prove crucial in retaining the current user base, who will be able to seamlessly use their previous purchases on the new platform.
