The Nintendo Switch 2 is on the horizon, and critics have raised concerns about its launch lineup, claiming that it might not live up to expectations. That said, the Switch 2 does have at least one big edge over the Switch 1’s original launch lineup. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild helped propel the original Switch to early success, but it wasn’t technically a true exclusive. It launched on Wii U the same day as it did on Switch, and it was originally developed with the Wii U in mind. That’s not the case this time around. Mario Kart World, Nintendo’s first major Switch 2 exclusive, won’t be playable on the original Switch at all. If you want the next big Mario Kart, you’ll have to upgrade.
