Two Legend of Zelda games--Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom--will boast better frame rates and resolutions, HDR support, and a new Zelda notes app functionality when playing for their respective Switch 2 Editions. Meanwhile, Kirby and the Forgotten Land is getting a brand-new story.
Keep in mind that these paid upgrades aren't the same as other Nintendo games getting free updates for Switch 2, such as Super Mario Odyssey and Pokemon Scarlet/Violet. The company has been more vague on these enhancements, basically saying they could improve performance or add compatibility for GameChat.
Earlier today, Nintendo announced that Switch 2 preorders have been delayed in the US because of the uncertainty around President Trump's new tariffs. The company has confirmed that the system's launch date for June 5 hasn't changed. For more, check out GameSpot's hands-on Switch 2 preview.
