Playtonic Games has once again teased that the upcoming Yooka-Replaylee will be coming to the Switch 2 console. Yooka-Replaylee, for the uninitiated, is an extensive remaster of 2017's Yooka-Laylee, itself a spiritual successor to Rare's beloved Banjo-Kazooie franchise.

Nintendo hasn’t announced its Switch successor yet, but we do know one thing for sure: it will be able to play current Switch games and have carryover for your Nintendo Switch Online services and account. The news was announced during Nintendo’s midyear policy briefing, with further information promised “at a later date.”

"At today's Corporate Management Policy Briefing, we announced that Nintendo Switch software will also be playable on the successor to Nintendo Switch," Nintendo posted in a social media update attributed to company president Shintaro Furukawa. "Nintendo Switch Online will be available on the successor to Nintendo Switch as well."

During its latest financial results, Nintendo revealed some more details about the successor to the Nintendo Switch. Specifically, Nintendo confirmed that people will be able to play their Nintendo Switch games on the new system.

Nintendo may be on the cusp of revealing the successor to the wildly successful Switch, but the company won't leave its old console completely in the dust. In a recent briefing, Nintendo confirmed the Switch 2 (or whatever Nintendo calls it) will be backward compatible with games for the original Switch.

Who needs a dock? Play these top games on the Switch Lite, Nintendo's strictly mobile, lower-cost version of the popular console.

The DS and 3DS gave us some strong Zelda games, like Spirit Tracks and A Link Between Worlds, but they shouldn't be trapped there.

A recently surfaced rumor claims that the Switch 2 may incorporate a somewhat technical feature that's not very Nintendo-like.
