One of the most pressing questions among gamers leading up to the release of the Nintendo Switch 2—launched June 5, 2025—was whether their beloved Switch collection would still work on the new system. Nintendo has delivered a largely positive answer: yes, the Switch 2 is backward compatible with the vast majority of original Switch games—both physical and digital—but there are caveats worth examining.First‑party support is almost universal: Nintendo conducted compatibility testing on 122 of its own games and found all but one fully functional. The exception? Nintendo Labo Toy‑Con 04: VR Kit is incompatible due to the larger size of the Switch 2 console—it physically doesn’t fit into the cardboard goggles..Third‑party support is strong but not flawless: Of over 15,000 third‑party titles tested, about 75% are fully compatible, while 141 exhibit startup issues and around 47 have minor in‑game problems. Nintendo is continuing to investigate and address unresolved cases.
