Nintendo has clarified that physical versions of Switch 2 Edition games will include both the original game and the upgrade on the same game card.

The idea is that games will benefit from the Switch 2’s better hardware would come with physical cartridges containing the upgrades. These upgrades would include things like higher-resolution graphics and improved performance. This would allow players to have an enhanced experience without needing to download anything.

This approach could be beneficial for players who prefer physical games or who don’t have reliable internet access. It would also allow Nintendo to ensure that all players have a consistent, high-quality experience. While this is still just a rumor, it could be a new way for Nintendo to deliver game upgrades.
