Nice. That’s the way it should be. Plain and simple.

Yea, since the download thing was similar to those boxes that HAVE the save info on some og switch game boxes. ( for example, there is a physical edition of fort night, but all there is is a code inside to download the game

Haven’t said this elsewhere yet so may as well add it here:
Tbh, I’m a little surprised the whole “Switch 2 Edition” is even a thing. We all kinda figured Wii U games were plentiful on the Switch just due to a lack of prior audience. But I think it’s weird that they’re taking Sony’s approach of focusing on “upgrades” to older games to show off their new graphical prowess.
I guess it’s def one way of convincing both non Switch owners and current ones alike to play these games on Switch 2, but it’s just weird. Idk what word I’m looking for, maybe “unnecessary” lol. But Nintendo’s really going for the unexpected here. Competing with graphics again and FOCUSING on competing with graphics again.
Aren’t the carts themselves the download code but possibly permanent and ‘in theory’ transfers with the cartridge?

I’ll be honest, the whole nintendo switch 2 edition thingy around both zelda games feels extremelly scummy.
– Paid upgrade that gives ONLY performance boost, while all the other cases either come with a dlc or are free upgrades.
– No word of the purchase of the 80 dollars Nintendo S2 Edition of either games comming with their respective DLC.
I also don’t like how from what it looks like cases like kirby and mario party don’t have an option of just the free upgrade with the dlc being optional, but Zelda 100% feels like they are nickel and dimming just because they know they can get away with it if its Zelda

so is the version of mario kart world that comes with the bundle a physical cartridge or not? it’s listed as physical in the specs but people are saying digital
