Also, looks a lot better now.

 

[Mr Hyde]

No upgrade path from that trash potato version they released on Switch. Thanks WB. Or maybe it's jokes on me for buying an "impossible port" on ancient hardware.

 

[ADiTAR]

It still kinda looks flat to me, the lighting in some parts. But I dunno maybe that's a day time thing.

I may actually buy it on a discount later down the line.

Also: really love these creator voice every week. Always nice to have some insight.

 

[Kikorin]

For being a PS4, Switch 2 is already seeing lot of next gen games coming to it.

 

[viveks86]

Are we still calling it next gen?

 

[kevboard]

it has 12GB of memory, so that makes sense

 

[Baemono]

Are we still calling it next gen?

I thought the same while watching the video. It's been almost half a decade the consoles launched, there is nothing next in this gen anymore

 

[RodriGames40]

Yeah, that looks pretty great. Wonder how the other builds are doing by now.

df still doing damage controls bouts dlss ahahaha so goord it has no artimifacts

While our initial pixel counts of Street Fighter 6 during the Switch 2 Nintendo Direct reveal pointed to a native 1080p based on limited footage, the more recent Nintendo Treehouse feed shows a scale from a native 960x540 to a 1080p target using an AI upscaling method - with evidence suggesting Nvidia's DLSS based on this footage.

Looking back, this 540p upscale appears to be in place in the original Direct footage as well. It's a remarkably clean scale in most shots, with the first few frames following a camera cut being one way to catch the base resolution from its docked mode play. We'll be sure to report back once we have more information.

I wonder if the reason for Zelda not having DLSS is because of motion vectors not being present in the Switch 1 version and the graphical improvements are just normal BC brute forcing better resolution and frame rate

 

[Cyberpunkd]

I find it hilarious when this will sell for at least $39.99 (most likely higher) for a game that is almost always on sale for $14.99 on consoles and PC + you cannot even upgrade from shit potato Switch version. If you buy this release you are part of the problem.

That's what they are referring to by next gen.

 

[MP!]

Probably, that would be my guess... since their engine isn't set up for temporal antialiasing solutions it's not a simple 3 week implementation.... so they just use the overhead to brute force the resolutions and Frames

 

[Shaki12345]

In the video they also talk about higher framerates.

I bought it on a decent sale. I have it on Steam Deck. I'll probably triple dip.

 

[Wooxsvan]

i can totally live w/ 30fps ports of current gen games if they can manage it. fidelity is looking fine by me

 

[Danjin44]

For me personally these stuff dont excite me. I'm not buying Switch 2 to play ports of the games I can already play on PS5.

That's great and all, but DAMMIT, I want little Timmy to play Madden on this bitch.

 

[Durin]

Looks pretty good, though it will matter more when the Switch 2 gets newer multi-plat games.

You know, I was thinking on getting this game on Switch even if just for the joycon wand controller... But then this is only 30 fps anyway, so maybe I'll get it on PC and check if someone else uploaded a joycons Steam Controller scheme or something like that...

"Nintendo can't compete over graphics" naysayers are having a hard time these days.

 

[Killer8]

Are we still calling it next gen?

If Digital Foundry keep insisting that Switch 2 is just a PS4 then I think it does actually become useful to distinguish the difference.

While true in theory. Not that many people are watching DF in the overall scheme of things.

They are busy creating hilarious 8-bit screen mockups of Switch 2 edition games

 

[II_JumPeR_I]

*CurrentGen.
There is no nextgen yet.

I would play that.

Actually incorrect. They are offering a $10.00 upgrade from switch 1 version to 2 that they are not promoting.

Well to my defense, I wrote that before WB disclosed that there would be an upgrade path for existing owners of HL on Switch.

Moving goalposts isn't hard, they will be fine, don't worry
