Original Switch games will look a lot better on the Nintendo Switch 2's Handheld Mode, thanks to a new feature. While Nintendo's latest console bears significant resemblance to its predecessor on the outside, it offers a hefty performance upgrade, though whether it takes full advantage of this power is more debatable. Now, a small but meaningful Nintendo Switch 2 change lets players get a little more out of the system.
The Switch 2's backwards compatibility is not as straightforward as it seems at first. Cartridges from the original Switch fit into the newer one, and many older games can run without problems on the new console. However, the Switch 2 relies on a mix of hardware-level compatibility and software emulation to support OG Switch games, which leaves some games unsupported but opens the door to performance improvements without sacrificing battery life. As Nintendo irons out some remaining compatibility issues, it just released a subtle feature that can noticeably improve the experience of running older games on the Switch 2.
