Good news for you :)
- Almost every first-party multiplayer Nintendo game on the Switch that I know of has offline local multiplayer. The only exception which comes to mind is Splatoon.
- The Switch has a cartridge slot, and leaks suggest the Switch 2 will too.
- And you can connect two (possibly more with a hub) Pro controllers with a true wired connection: https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/26315/~/how-to-enable%2Fdisable-pro-controller-wired-communication https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/...
Fingers crossed that the Switch 2 maintains this pattern.
- extraduder_ire 2y agoAs well as local multiplayer, there's a feature to sync game updates without an internet connection. So even if people start off with different versions of a game and have no internet connection they can still play together. I am a little disappointed they don't have anything like the DS's download play feature though.

It does, but it's hidden behind an unlisted button combination (Zl + Zr + L3 for Splat 3) and every player needs their own console and copy of the game: https://splatoonwiki.org/wiki/The_Shoal#LAN_Play https://splatoonwiki.org/wiki/The_Shoal#LAN_Play
- sfmz 2y agoThanks. I was thinking though how much more UI hassle the modern systems are for 5-year olds as I have nephews; if you can still load with cartridges and use wired controllers -- that's pretty close to the classic systems with respect to UI. I am still nostalgic for a larger cartridges, SD cards are so puny.
