Switch 2 Gets Exclusive James Pond Retro Collection

System 3 announces The James Pond Legacy, an exclusive Nintendo Switch 2 collection releasing in October with four games (James Pond: Underwater Agent; James Pond 2: RoboCod; James Pond 3: Operation Starfish; The Aquatic Games) and 12 retro versions across SNES/Genesis plus Commodore 64 and Amiga 500; digital and physical editions are planned, with a PS5 port reportedly in the works. The trailer sparked online backlash over AI usage, which System 3 denies, saying the new visuals were hand-drawn from pixel art and do not replace the original in-game graphics.

Switch 2’s Call of Duty Port Trades Resolution for 60fps, Early Feedback Mixed

Activision’s Call of Duty lands on Switch 2 as part of a 10-year Nintendo deal; early impressions of Modern Warfare 4 on the console show a port that prioritizes frame rate over resolution—about 60fps docked with some hitching and heavy artifacting, but better perceived in handheld mode, with DLSS integration noted and cross-play/final performance still to be confirmed ahead of the October 23, 2026 release.

Duskbloods: a vampire multiplayer exclusive that could redefine Switch 2

Hands-on with The Duskbloods shows a bold Switch 2 exclusive from FromSoftware: an eight-player vampire multiplayer that blends Souls-like combat with a virtue-based scoring system, multiple vampiric classes and companions, and a design intent to broaden Nintendo’s audience beyond Zelda and Mario—though it’s early, with features like customization and story elements still to come and significant risk for a platform-wide exclusive.
