I work hard for my money. I do not like spending it on games that barely function. I stopped buying 3rd party games of any variety on switch because of how many times I was burned by awful performance.
Even 1st party games now. I liked TotK a lot, but frankly it’s difficult to love a game when multiple areas are plagued with nausea inducing frame drops.
Like how has it become acceptable to even publish a game that can’t hold stable 30fps at not-even-real-1080p? Not asking for the world here.
I’d be half inclined to buy a switch 2 if they told me it could actually run my switch 1 library with any faint semblance of competence. But I think I’ll probably pass on this one, especially with the steam deck and other competitors right there. I doubt the switch 2 will be a price-for-performance powerhouse. Would love to be proven wrong though
They won’t. Nintendo has gone on record many times they didn’t care about competing at all in hardware. They think that if a game is fun, that’s all that matters. Ignoring the fact that if the game runs poorly or looks poorly then it will directly affect the fun factor, which makes ports at risk.
It’ll probably be an updated Nvidia SoC, but still bottlenecked my Nintendo (like the current switch is) because mobile battery life is all they really care about.
Let’s hope they put a decent processor in this one

While I have a Switch… I play Switch games on my computer. TotK was incredible at 1440p/60FPS with visual enhancements!
