    For those who don’t know, the title doesn’t exactly explain that this is not a “next-gen” style upgrade for Nier Automata Switch 1 owners. The game does not have enhanced graphics or an increased framerate cap, it is simply a Switch 2 firmware update that makes the original Switch 1 version actually work correctly on Switch 2, since the game had issues running on Switch 2 until now.

    Tokyo Xanadu Ex+ also moved to “compatible” with this update. Now the only game I have in my collection that is marked as “not working” on the Switch 2 is Towerfall.

      I hadn’t tried running Towerfall since getting my Switch 2. What is not working with it?

      In my library, Crypt of the Necrodancer is still completely unplayable with latest firmware. Crashes during initial loading. Two firmware patches ago (before 21.0.0) it was briefly playable but you’d have to restart the Switch 2 (full power options restart) or you’d have major sound issues.

      I have They Bleed Pixels which was made compatible with 21.0.0 though. Before that it ran at a choppy 20% speed or so.

      SmileBASIC 4 (programming language with access to lots of console functions, used to be Petit Computer back on DS) has been fixed by a software update. It mostly worked before but tended to crash if you did stuff like switching to home menu.
