Switch 2 Free Upgrades For Switch 1 Games Tested: Link's Awakening, Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 3 +More!

Nintendo's first party games for the original Switch produced some of the finest gaming experiences of the last generation console era - but via a series of updates, these titles are taken to the next level on Switch 2, with 4x to 5x resolution boosts, improved frame-rates and more. And unlike the 'Switch 2 Editions', they're completely FREE. Oliver Mackenzie and John Linneman share their notes on the upgrades that caught their attention - and we think you'll be impressed.
