THE FUSE

Switch on your Switch 2 this morning and it’ll ask you to install the latest upgrade (thank you Eurogamer). A fairly normal experience, even a faintly irritating one, except that today’s is going to improve your console significantly. Along with all the usual tweaks, fixes and a controller update, is something called Handheld Mode Boost, just nonchalantly mentioned in the long list of changes, that will allow you to run most Switch 1 games in their improved TV mode on your Switch 2 while using the console as a handheld device.
