New footage for Pokémon Legends: Z-A was showcased for the Nintendo Switch 2, featuring animations and battles that highlight the console's power. However, this presentation raises concerns for existing Nintendo Switch users. Many Switch owners may invest in the game, potentially unaware of performance discrepancies between the original and new consoles. With Nintendo reporting over 152 million Switch units sold globally, a significant user base lacks Switch 2 access. As the game may not perform similarly on both consoles, questions arise regarding digital purchase policies and return options for buyers without the upgraded hardware.
Nintendo ended Tuesday's Pokémon Presents with new footage for Pokémon Legends: Z-A on Nintendo Switch 2, showing the player wandering the streets of Lumiose City, enjoying a break in the park with a full team of Pokémon, and having fast-moving, sharply animated battles with several Pokémon on-screen at the same time.
Folks still have the right to know what to expect from their purchase. At the end of March, Nintendo reported it had sold over 152 million Switch units around the world.
The point is, that's a lot of people who don't have a Switch 2 yet. Which means there are a lot of people likely to pick up A New Pokémon, trust it'll be fine because Nintendo.
Legends: Z-A might perform fine on the original Switch, but some of the early footage Nintendo showed raises more than a few questions.
