When the Nintendo Switch 2 dropped, millions of fans were quick to grab the console and install their favorite games, whether it was the new Mario Kart World, or one of the backwards compatible adventures… well, unless they didn’t work as promised.
It wasn’t exactly a secret when the console released, but roughly 2% of the first Switch’s games weren’t compatible with the second console. Since then, Nintendo has promised that almost 100% of their games will eventually work on the Switch 2, but that hasn’t stopped a plethora of titles from failing to run, save, or just work with the new Joy-Cons.
