No trailer, just announcement on X. I always find it weird when companies do that.

Are they getting ahead of a leak?
They know that someone is about to spoil the release date, so they quickly throw together a tweet to control the message and buy time for a more comprehensive and thought out announcement as part of the Nintendo Direct.

It is possible, but Nintendo is weird enough that you can't always say.

According to the article, the upgrade will get you "a higher resolution and improved framerates."
For me, that upgrade is not worth it. I will play the game entirely in portable mode and my vision is not what it used to be, so I don't care about resolution.
If previously released Switch Pokémon games are any indication, "improved frame rates" means 30.
So it may be worth $10 for some people, then. I am fine with a cheaper game with slightly worse graphics. I am not sure I even notice if a game is running at 60 fps or 30 fps. Even when a game dips below 30, I notice it getting a bit choppy, but a game should be engaging enough that I will not pay it any attention.
That would definitely be worth the $10 if you were already buying a Switch 2. A stable 30 is miles better than what we had with Scarlet/Violet.
It was clearly running at 60 FPS during the Switch 2 reveal.
