While the Switch 2 may be backwards compatible, Nintendo would not confirm whether we'll still be able to use our old cartridges.

After confirming the existence of the Nintendo Switch’s successor, the Nintendo Switch 2, the company remained silent for a while. Now, it has revealed interesting details about the upcoming console.

Nintendo hasn’t announced its Switch successor yet, but we do know one thing for sure: it will be able to play current Switch games and have carryover for your Nintendo Switch Online services and account. The news was announced during Nintendo’s midyear policy briefing, with further information promised “at a later date.”
