    The question is, will Nintendo Accounts (the thing Nintendo made so you didn’t have to get a new type of account with every damn console) that already have the DLC be able to use it on the Switch 2 with the Switch 2 version of the game?

    Technically, there shouldn’t be any meaningful reason why not. Aren’t the Switch 2 versions just asset upgrades? Maybe a wee bit of coding to adapt the existing software to newer hardware. So if they’re smart they’ll say “Yes.”

    The best reason for a no would be that Nintendo will not have yet updated the assets that are included in the DLC. Meaning people who own the DLC would get to use them at a later date when the teams doing these ports have time to get to them.

    The worst reason to say no would be “Buy them again, cucks.”
