When you hear that an existing Switch game is going to be launched with the Switch 2 port, you will naturally think that the game will be adjusted and optimized to achieve better performance on more powerful hardware, especially if it is priced up to $80 (about RMB 580).Games like Pokémon Ju/Purple do this, although they don't have a dedicated Switch 2 version.

Strangely, Super Mario Party: An unprecedented event seems to be the case.IGN pointed out in its game review that the basic version of the game actually has no improvements, still running at 720p in handheld mode and 1080p in dock mode.Instead, all picture improvements are limited to the "Happy TV" section of the game, which is isolated in its own mode.

However, the "Happy TV" mode supports multiplayer games, which include a variety of mouse-based mini games to try out the new Switch 2 technology, but strangely, it also removes many interesting features from the base version.For example, the Pro Rules mode cannot be played in the "Happy Festival TV" and the achievement system has also been removed.

Essentially, if you want to play the "Pro Rules" mode, you are either forced to play the exact same Super Mario Party: An unprecedented event as the Switch version, or you are forced to enter the better version with various features removed.This was an inexplicable change for Nintendo and significantly reduced the value of the game.For players, it may be better to stick with the original version unless you are interested in more than a dozen new mini games.
