In this latest update for both the Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Nintendo Switch, Nintendo appears to have tackled a problem where previously set parental controls didn’t transfer during a system migration, requiring users to re-input them manually. Additionally, they seem to have addressed an issue that surfaced when looking for networks, and they’ve made some improvements to overall stability. While not particularly thrilling, it seems Nintendo has quietly sorted out some backward compatibility issues with previous Switch games. You can find the complete details of the update on Nintendo’s official website, linked below.
Ver. 20.2.0 (Released July 14, 2025)
- Fixed an issue where Parental Control settings were not transferred to Nintendo Switch 2 from Nintendo Switch in certain circumstances during a system transfer.
- Fixed an issue where you could not proceed past “Searching for networks” in Internet Settings within System Settings.
- General system stability improvements to enhance the user’s experience.
After the recent update, several Switch 2 users have been playing older games that previously encountered problems on the latest system. On Bluesky, OatmealDome has verified that Portal 2 is one of the games now functioning properly, stating it “no longer freezes post-update.” Other users have also reported fixes for games such as Crypt of the NecroDancer and Slay the Spire. In the near future, we might discover more games with resolved problems, however, given the vast number of titles released for the original Switch, it may take some time to address every single issue.
Approximately a month has passed since the release of Nintendo Switch 2, and backward compatibility appears to be more crucial than ever in any previous console generation. This device might entice individuals who didn’t purchase the original Switch, and these newcomers would likely want to explore many of the top games launched on that platform. In addition to ensuring that older games work on the latest hardware, Nintendo has also provided a combination of free and paid upgrades for various titles. While gamers might be preoccupied with new releases like “Mario Kart World” and “Donkey Kong Bananza”, there will still be those who prefer playing older games for some time.
There’s speculation that in the upcoming Nintendo Direct (expected in July), we might hear about upgrades for older games. However, the exact date is yet to be confirmed by Nintendo. But whispers suggest a livestream is coming in late July. With only two weeks left in the month, there’s still room for an announcement. Meanwhile, Nintendo has announced a Pokemon Presents event set for July 22nd, which could bring more attention to Pokemon Legends: Z-A, slated for release on Nintendo Switch this year.
