    Just because the cartridge slot is compatible with old Switch games doesn’t necessarily mean they can’t use a different communication protocol for the new cartridges to prevent them from getting dumped

    In fact, that is almost guaranteed to be the case, because otherwise the Switch 2 would be launching with a flashcard available for it on day 1.

      Also a good point. It would be surprising if the protocol wasn’t changed either for the slot itself.

      Should be interesting to see how it blocks flashcarts.
