I don't think the Nintendo gaming community will have much of a problem with BotW and TotK on Switch 2. Chances are that they already own both games. Chances are that they've already purchased the BotW DLC. Chances are that they are already subscribed to NSO and receive Switch 2 upgrade packs as a perk. All the fuss here is first and foremost about those people who have held out for up to eight years to get Zelda for cheap and now it turns out that all those years of waiting amounted to nothing. And yeah, my sympathy for gamers who refuse to pay for great games is pretty limited.

Yeah, especially in the cases of BotW and TotK I don't have a problem to pay a small fee of 10 bucks for the resolution upgrade.

They are the two Zelda games with the most "bang for the buck" with lots of content... much more than the other Zelda games. 

Nintendo could have sold them as two-parters back then, so BotW1, BotW2, TotK1, TotK2 for 50 - 60 bucks each and even those versions would have a better value than the Link's Awakening remake or Echoes of Wisdom. 

And people who don't already have BotW or TotK yet, can currently buy the used Switch 1 versions for €35 - €40 each and upgrade them to the Switch 2 version for €10 each.

I would have been very happy, if similar upgrade paths have existed to upgrade Wii U versions to Switch 1 versions. Unfortunately that never happened.
