Wish they’d fix Kill la Kill If, it’s been an issue since day one.

Anyway, only one of these I own is Slay the Princess. Unfortunate it’s having issues, been wanting to replay it for a bit. Always the Switch 1 or Steam at least, own it on both.

Love to see the compatibility fixes continuing in general and pretty good selection this time – a lot of games fixed including some notable ones like Attack On Titan 2, Go Vacation etc. (bet @Nep-Nep-Freak will be happy about Neptunia)!

@Lizuka I also hope they fix kill la kill. It is the only switch game I still can’t play in my library.

It’s so cool they are still doing this. I’ll keep my hopes up for tales of symphonia…

Still no Borderlands 3 which is crazy for an AAA title.

I would like to play the Neptunia game series, always thought they looked fun just never tried. I really want to play Slay the Princess. Hope that gets updated soon.

Although my backlog is already longer than i want so i will wait a bit

Cool but i want Neverwinter Nights 1 to work on my Switch 2

The new processor choice from Nvidia has proven to be a banger, strong enough to be in the ballpark of Series S. But the lack of native back-compat it’s still a huge issue to me. Patching on a game to game basis means they’ll likely be holes in my library that will never be fixed.

@Sindayl BioShock 1 also getting no love, the frame rate on switch 2 in that game would give you motion sickness.

2 and infinite work fine, it’s weird

Nintendo continuing to show they value their fans. They don’t have to do this, but they keep doing it at a pretty solid rate

Every time I see one of these posts go up I eagerly check the list of games for Jurassic World Evolution: Complete Edition and am continuously disappointed. I’m guessing this is more on Frontier at this stage than Nintendo, but it really puts me off paying for Jurassic World Evolution 2 when the developer support is so poor.

Idk what happened with Slay the Princess, but that’s where I come in here. Shout out to Black Tabby Games. My wife hates your game; she hates the narrator’s voice. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to Prove You’re Human. Thanks for publishing!

Neptunia Re;Birth3 being fixed is great 😊

Annnnd Borderlands 3 continues to sit in the backlog waiting for a fix. I guess im in no hurry though since Borderlands 4 isnt getting released anytime soon.

Seeing ArtOfRally not being purchasable from a Switch2 will never not confuse me.

Nintendo is among the only companies next to stesm to even attempt upkeeping sucha compatibility layers.

They payout is amazing tho.
Interpretation > Emulation

After all it makes GameShare and the Switch2Eds* possible

It’s like a secondary cash stream.
Nintendo can chill this gen.
Good for em

I think tales of symphonia is the big one left to fix

@Stormcloudlive I played through BioShock on S2 just after launch despite hearing about some glitches. It was absolutely fine for me. Has it got issues now?

@teo_o Pretty weird considering on how strict Nintendo is in regards to backward compatibility, right down to matching the processor speed in compatibility mode.

Just that with the Switch Successor is a bit of a weird case.

@WheresWaveRace I tried to load up a save in it about 3 months ago and the framerate was very strange, it wasn’t low fps but kinda coming in surges so it was giving me motion sickness vibes. Might redownload it and see if it was just a temp issue or maybe something with my save that was messed up.

Are they ever going to fix Jurassic World Evolution?

Ninja Five-O!! 🔥🥷🏼💥 FINALLY!!!

“Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth3 V Generation”
That one was a big one. Apparently based on the PC version that also had issues that required the player to patch it with a fan mod. Poor performance, kept crashing, overworld became a glitchy void.

Glad it’s finally fixed because I have been eying the trilogy pack, whenever I can get it

Regarding Slay the Princess, Black Tabby Games is currently working on a Switch 2 update.

@Zeeba Bot account detected lol. 🤪

Edit: In case it wasn’t obvious…I’m just joking lol. 😅

still nothing for:
This War of Mine
Jurassic Park/World Evolution

…Yeah, I bought Jurassic World Evolution on Switch some time ago, thought I’d see what the game would be like on Switch 2…nope…can’t even redownload it. sighs

@TensuraFan7 called out by the manager 😹 I feel seen. Am I being poached?

Was hoping we’d see a VRR update list here. Lol

Wondering how many games they’ll fix this way down the line, and/or if there will be any they won’t fix. Either way it’s appreciated for sure.

When the YouTube application, will be fixed/working, on NintendoSwitch2?

They still need to fix Layer Section and Galactic Attack S-Tribute… Or did they finally get to that?

Every single time I check for Borderlands 3 and every single time it’s not there. It’s absolutely wild that this is still the case. How is that okay?

@ErraticGamer Pitchford is too busy lighting cigars with $100 notes with Strauss Zelnick to care. Maybe if BL4 comes to Switch 2 and no one bites, he’ll reconsider technical support.
