This is pretty crazy. Apparently Switch 2 edition cartridges will work on Switch 1 consoles and will simply boot up the last-gen version of the game instead of the Switch 2 version. I'm starting to see people talking about this. How extensive this will be is unknown, but it would prevent buying the wrong version from turning into a disaster for Switch 1 owners.
