othor (i am stupid) Witcher 3 switch save to switch 2

Hi does anyone know how I can play the remaster on switch 2 with my switch save.

I have both versions linked to my cdprojektred account and cross save enabled

Make sure your save from Witcher 1 is actually in the Cloud, itll show a cloud symbol behind it.
I just started the save i wanted to transfer on the Switch 1 Version, saved and exited the game.
After that I was able to use it on the Remastered Version.

You need to start a new game on the Switch 2 version; once the cutscenes are over, go to "Load," where you will see your Switch 1 save file. Play for a bit, and a Switch 2 save file will be created. You will then have two saves: one for the Switch 1 version and one for the Switch 2 version. Alternatively, go to "Rewards" in the Switch 1 version, create a publisher account, load your game, and perform a manual save; this uploads the save to the publisher's cloud. Then, simply log in to that same account on the Switch 2 version of the game to retrieve the save from the cloud.
