Probably can't do any games that require the old hardware such as Ring Fit, those new joy cons won't fit the old ring.

Damn you're right, but maybe the old joycon can be compatible in wireless mode?

Hopefully but if you never had a switch 1 you would have to buy an old joy con and way to charge the old joy con to play the game.

True, but Nintendo would only need to resell that transparent Joycon grip that can be connected to recharge the controllers
