Now that is actually just cheap. They're probably gonna want to sell you the DLC all over again, even though as existing content they really could've just packed it into the new version to help justify selling an old game at an even higher price.

This is honestly more tacky than the console/game prices themselves. Hopefully it's misinformation and they're not actually keeping them split lol.

Wait... this was news or even up for debate? I already assumed they were gonna charge people all over again. After all I did make a topic about Nintendo screwing over its consumerbase whenever they're on top.

This is from a customer service rep and they probably don't know, just gave an answer to the best of their knowledge. Someone in the comments said they saw the DLC in the videos Nintendo showed.

Current Nintendo would have charged extra for Super mario 3d's world and charged a separate fee for bowser's fury, which they'd release as a separate game. They were most likely kicking themselves at having bundled it as one game.

Is this even real? People are just buying any random 4chan photoshop these days. The "Switch 2 edition carts only have a Switch 1 cartridge and a download code" email turned out to be completely fake.

Comments suggest videos straight up showed the DLC, so there's a decent chance this was just a customer support worker who has no actual idea.

Nintendo is flopping so hard right now. They can't even treat their classics with dignity. They deserve to flop HARD with this launch.

Your copy of the DLC will transfer to the Switch 2 when you transfer all your data, licenses, etc. This only affects people buying BotW for the first time on Switch 2, or people who never paid for the DLC on Switch 1 (they'll both have to pay for the DLC to access it).

Yeah, misinformation has been spreading so easily regarding the Switch 2 (tbh that's largely because Nintendo's communication sucks in this regard) so I'm not taking this as truth yet. IIRC, before this, future copies of Switch BotW ended up containing the DLC even if it was just a download code, so it'd be odd (but not out of the realm of possibility) for Nintendo to stop doing this for the Switch 2 version.

I'm gonna throw a curveball theory - Nintendo wasn't being greedy with this but they're genuinely so inept/lazy that that compiling a build of BOTW with all the DLC enabled never crossed their mind

Of course it doesn't. It's okay when Nintendo does it....for some reason.

This appears to be the actual source, which based on the actual reply, I'm leaning toward the rep just having no idea what they're talking about. Wouldn't be surprised, though.

Yeah. Wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo pulled something like that but I'm not taking it as confirmation.

That would have been preferable for those of us who already had Super Mario 3D World on Wii U, and were annoyed at having to buy it again to get Bowser's Fury.
