Nintendo's Shocking Upgrade Costs Revealed
Nintendo has just dropped a bombshell, confirming the upgrade costs for two fan-favorite titles as they transition to the Nintendo Switch 2: Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Super Mario Party Jamboree. And brace yourself, because these upgrades don't come cheap!
What’s New in the Upgrades?
The eagerly awaited Switch 2 Edition of Breath of the Wild boasts stunning visual enhancements and smoother performance alongside exciting new features like the 'Zelda Notes' service through Nintendo Switch Online. But hold on! If you're a proud owner of the original game, you'll need to shell out an additional $10 for the upgrade pack to access these new perks.
Upgrades Galore for Kirby and Mario!
The Kirby and the Forgotten Land upgrade now includes fresh story content, while the Super Mario Party Jamboree is upping the ante with a vibrant new Jamboree TV feature, cleverly utilizing the Switch 2’s enhanced Joy-Con 2 controls, built-in microphone, and a USB-C camera (which is sold separately!). Expect jaw-dropping resolutions up to 1440p and a plethora of new minigames alongside improved online features.
What Will It Cost You?
While U.S. prices for the upgrades remain under wraps—likely due to ongoing tariff uncertainties—the UK Nintendo eShop has already listed the Kirby upgrade pack at a hefty £16.99 / €19.99. That's more than double the £7.99 / €9.99 fee for upgrading Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom!
The price tag for the Super Mario Party Jamboree upgrade mirrors that of Kirby, pointing towards a likely $19.99 price in the U.S. market.
