Nintendo's internal leaked files reveal the inside story of the overflow of Switch2 game key fobs

The latest leaked information shows that the root cause of the adoption of "game key fob" by a large number of games on the Switch2 platform is that Nintendo only provides developers with two physical format options: 64GB cassette and controversial key fob.

Despite the great success of the first Switch in the past decade, its successor should have been the most secure iteration in Nintendo's history.But the reality is completely different. Since its release, the new console has encountered doubts such as excessive pricing, controversy in game prices and insufficient innovation.

However, the most controversial thing is the way Switch2 handles third-party physical games.Except for a very small number of works such as "Cyberpunk 2077", most games that log on to the platform will use the key fob form that requires additional content, rather than the complete pre-installed cassette.

It can be imagined that this mode has caused deep concerns about the future of physical games, making the game saving problem even worse.Previously, the industry generally speculated that this move was due to capacity restrictions, but some games less than 64GB also use the form of a key fob, making the truth confusing.

The turnaround occurred in the recent hacking incidents of Arc System Works.According to Nintendo Everything, as the agency is developing a new work for Switch2, leaked files reveal key information: intelligence shared by Twitter user necrolipe shows that Nintendo only offers three distribution formats - digital version, 64GB cassettes containing the complete game (the highest cost), and a key fob codenamed "Potion".This means that if developers are unwilling to bear the high cost of 64GB cartridges, they can only choose the highly criticized key fob solution, which has been strongly resisted by the player group.

Industry analysts pointed out that this mandatory grading strategy, which lacks intermediate options, may lead to small and medium-sized developers being forced to abandon physical version distribution, which will have a profound impact on the game retail ecosystem.As players continue to ferment the key fob protests, Nintendo has not yet made a formal response to the matter.
