Nintendo demoed Switch 2 to developers at Gamescom
Not sure how that would handle physical games? The cart just acts as a key and the game is downloaded?

Probably yes. In case of modern Xbox backwards compatibility with 360 and original, it works more or less this way.

~~~That's entirely wrong. You can play the game straight out of the cartridge with no Internet connection. Of course, without patches.~~~
Edit: Sorry, I misread your comment. :|

Possibly. But also it's Nintendo, so the answer could be "you're going to buy the game again and you're going to like it".
