my guess is the backwards compatibility is the reason they went after those because it means switch 2 games are probably as easy to emulate as switch games, as they share the same structure, operating system and so on. they probably didnt like that. im not shilling for nintendo with this meme, i just thought it was neat to get that confirmed because we didnt really know what the case would be.

i also have a steamdeck. i just thought it was neat that this was confirmed, its not deeper than that

well i think the switch was only not backwards compatible with the wii u because like the switch from discs to cartridges and from power pc to arm like it just wasnt feasible i reckon. switch 2 from the leaks seems to be just a higher powered and slightly bigger nintendo switch so backwards compatibility is a no brainer. but its good to have the confirmation
