Comment on Switch 2 demand appears to be flagging as Nintendo reportedly lowers production
setsubyou@lemmy.world 4 days agoAnd if you play docked you don’t get much out of the added power for the majority of games. You can get a few upgrade packs (some of which cost money) and a small number of games that require a Switch 2. But otherwise the main difference is better load times.
For handheld they just recently fixed this with a new handheld boost mode where Switch 1 games run in some docked mode simulation, so handheld players do get better performance and resolution out of a Switch 2 (in some cases significantly, there are some Switch 1 games that are borderline unplayable on a Switch 1 in handheld mode). But only as of a couple weeks ago. Literally the feature every handheld player wanted out of a Switch 2, and it took them this long.
