Nintendo has announced the pricing for upgrading titles such as Super Mario Party Jamboree and Kirby and the Forgotten Land for the new Nintendo Switch 2, and the news isn’t entirely welcome for many players.

• The upgrade cost is projected to be around $20 each in the U.S., reflecting a significant price change.
• Fans have reacted negatively to these expenses.

The announcement has ignited discussions within the community, particularly after the company indicated that players would need to pay for next-gen versions of titles they already own. Critics are especially concerned given that previous game enhancements were lower in price. The pricing inconsistencies have left players feeling frustrated, marking a contentious point in Nintendo’s pricing strategy as it seeks to maintain customer loyalty while introducing new offerings.
