nice improvement to the clarity. Really makes everything look less blurry, especially in the distance.

really hope we see more free improvements like this on Switch 1 games.

First game I played on Switch 2. Much sharper and cleaner image compared to the original.

I won’t be able to notice difference unless both versions are side by side

A lot of games that have no official Switch 2 update already run WAY better just from the hardware itself. It's fantastic getting to play all these games in a much better state. So glad I hardly played any of my Switch collection over the years, lol. This will make experiencing them for the first time so much better.

A nice resolution upgrade to one of my fav games but i’m still not buying the Switch “2”

This and Mario/Bowser are ones I will pop in later. I hope other devs offer some patches, like xenon racer on SW1 is 30fps and it really is better at 60.

Great it was 60 frames on switch 1 though. Definitely sacrificed resolution however.

Neonridr18h ago

I mean it targeted 60 on the Switch 1, but it wasn't always solid.

I’ll never know why fans let Nintendo get away with not competing graphically and never putting their games on sale.

Unfortunately the games are fun. They’ve got us by the balls

I’m a fan of their exclusives as well but if the hardware had the same capabilities as the x and ps5 and I could have all the third party stuff plus the Nintendo exclusives it would be my main console

Neonridr2h ago

@GhostScholar - if the Switch 2 had the same capabilities as the X and PS5 it would cost over $1000 and the battery would last for 5 minutes.
