It's disappointing but I can live with it. What I'm confused by now though is somewhere on the support page did say Switch 2 versions wouldn't work on the original Switch. Or maybe I read it wrong.

That would actually be trash if they just sold the Switch 1 version requiring a full Switch 2 download and install, yet still didn't let you play it on current Switch. I didn't even want this to begin with, but if they're not putting it on Switch 2 cart with the full game there's no real excuse.

Well I've assumed that the switch 2 upgrades will install just like a game update, so if you already have a cartridge of BOTW for example you'll just download and install a patch rather than having to download the entire game. But I don't know for sure. It would be annoying if it does require a full download and install to the internal storage.

Switch 2 is completely different hardware and requires it's games to run on faster storage. I assumed the 'upgrade pack' was literally just a Switch 2 port running natively from internal storage.
