games on Switch 2 coming from Switch 1, as well as games that have some compatibility issues with the new system, and while they might start, they won't be able to be played fully.

The full list of games and software that can't be played on Switch 2 includes:

• Nintendo Labo Toy-**** 04: VR Kit
  • The Nintendo Switch 2 console cannot be inserted into the Toy-**** VR Goggles accessory, so this game cannot be played.
• NicoNico
• ABEMA
• Hulu
• Crunchyroll
• InkyPen

Equally, Nintendo has listed a slew of games that require Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons to be played on Nintendo Switch 2. You can connect the old Joy **** controllers to Switch 2 wirelessly, even if they can't connect to the sides of the console. The list of games that require this method to work on Switch 2 includes:

• Ring Fit Adventure
• 1-2 Switch
• Everybody 1-2 Switch
• Game Builder Garage
• Nintendo Switch Sports
• WarioWare Move It!
• Nintendo Labo Toy-**** 1, 2 and 3

Some of the above games are shocking additions, but there are also a lot that aren't really that surprising. WarioWare not being usable on Switch 2 is wild for me without using the old Joy-Cons. Is there really that much of a difference?

Outside of Nintendo's own lineup, there are hundreds of partner games that are still having issues with Switch 2 ahead of launch. Most of these issues are being addressed or looked into, and there's a full list of the games having these issues on the Nintendo website. There are some big names on the list, too, like Mega Man, Just Dance, and other huge IPs. So it's worth checking it all out.
