A reader argues that, while confusing, Sony’s approach to charging for game upgrades is fair and something Nintendo should look to copy.

Horizon Forbidden West – did you pay for an upgrade? As a Switch owner I await the news about Switch 2 backwards compatibility and upgrade paths. I’m pretty sure it will be backwards compatible but really don’t know if Nintendo will offer upgrade paths or charge full price for native Switch 2 versions of Switch games or provide free boosts to Switch games running through backwards compatibility.

I could be wrong, but I also think PlayStation 4 Uncharted 4 didn’t receive a free 60 fps patch, as they probably want you to upgrade to the PlayStation 5 version. Which once again was a bit ugh, but as the DLC was thrown in with it, and I didn’t own that, it was a good price for me. I wonder if this is the reason Bloodborne hasn’t got a 60 fps patch, because a PlayStation 5 remaster/remake is being considered.
