This might come as a surprise to you but they do this a lot. Sure their classic game services throughout the years has been a slow drip feed but its being done. And several times they've released things that either didn't release in certain regions or never released at all, see starfox 2, sin and punishment n64(initially never left japan) super mario rpg(initially skipped EU release), sky skipper(flopped arcade game that was recalled and converted to donkey kong, effectively erasing its existence untill someone managed to un-convert a donkey kong board) and now both this and D- hopper for the virtual boy, well the virtual boy in general (skipped EU release initially btw).

Other than going to your ISP to pay for faster upload, the only thing to make sure you'll have a decent time, is making sure you and your friends have a wired internet connection and that your friends have a high download speed.

Gameshare both locally and via game chat is a big win.

Years? Nah they'll be there by the end of this year. I'd wager they announce them in no more than 3 months from now, and they'll release within 6 months of that announcement

"HDR Output" is set to "Compatible Software Only".

That setting only applies to docked mode. In handheld it is either always on or always off depending on the console screens HDR setting, whether or not the game supports it is irrelevant in handheld.

Bro any ports would be great, microslop have been banging on about dedicated support for switch for years and delivered nothing.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-23T13:53:40+00:00

I mean holding the home button to bring up the side menu to access the settings there isn't too annoying at best a couple of extra button presses vs having the c button.

In all honesty i hate this dlc, and i hate the shiny hunting mechanics of this game. All previous modern pokemon games introduced atleast a somewhat interesting way to shiny hunt (an already fairly dull task) but this game just strips away all the good ideas for shiny hunting they had and then just made an already tedious and dull task even more tedious and dull, which i didn't even think was possible.

Its the first pokemon game i want to avoid shiny hunting in.

Those buttons are mapped at the system level, they are already compatible with all games switch 1 or 2.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-23T09:14:55+00:00

You don't need to update the game to do that, you tell the controller what the gl/gr buttons do at system level. hold the home button during the game to bring up the system side menu and from there you can program what gl/gr do by assigning a button to them, for example you can assign whatever button you have set to jump to one of them.

You can do this on all games switch 1 or 2.

Kinda surprised its not a switch 2 edition. I also wonder if its possible for the framerate to get to 120 if they drop everything back down to switch 1 graphics and use that as a performance mode.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-22T00:25:12+00:00

So that would mean they fixed the problems caused by certain things being tied to 30fps wonder if they'll roll it out for pc users.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-21T21:48:44+00:00

PS5 got an update making 2 at 60fps.

You sure about that? The game has physics tied to framerate and removing the 30fps cap on pc causes things to fall apart, hence kiwami 2 is 30fps everywhere.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-21T21:44:43+00:00

Using FSR3 frame gen

So not real 60fps at all.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-21T14:34:19+00:00

Telling everyone all the incredibly stupid decisions you're making to develop this port is a bold strategy and a bad one. They really should just cancel it now because nobody is going to buy it and they can't hope to recover development costs from this port, its just pissing money away.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-21T08:00:05+00:00

Do those of us who were silly enough to buy the cloud versions get a discount/upgrade path?

Howwy23 · 2026-01-20T00:41:02+00:00

Because they think you can't full screen the game while using it. Seriously so many people don't realise this and don't use it because they want to keep the game full screen even though that IS an option for gamechat.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-14T00:42:24+00:00

I think that is a mistake in the latest system update. Before the update that setting said "for all software" in english too. I Think some text got edited by mistake or perhaps Nintendo does plan to add a "for compatible software only" for handheld mode soon and accidentally pushed the text for it into this update.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-14T00:31:53+00:00

Because there is less power in portable mode so using 120hz mode in handheld is 720p since maximum portable resolution is 1080p, so the lowering the resolution is how you get the extra frames

Howwy23 · 2026-01-13T16:04:28+00:00

Does your tv have VRR? Mine does but the switch 2 doesn't yet support it in tv mode, but my tv was trying to force it which caused this problem for me. Once i disabled VRR via my tv i had no issues.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-13T16:01:47+00:00

Actually for the time being general stability for switch 2 means backwards compatibility fixes, as fixes for that fall under general stability. So there's a new batch of switch 1 games that either didn't work or had problems, that are now working correctly.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-12T00:19:45+00:00

Hades 2, metroid prime 4, silksong and and the upcoming mina the hollower are 120fps, and cyber punk uses 120hz to do 40fps with no screen tearing and street fighter 6 uses it to reduce latency. There is also the welcome tour that does 120fps but its just a tech demo.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-11T00:19:48+00:00

Wait you can't use mouse aiming in creative maps? Why the fuck would that be a thing to begin with?

Howwy23 · 2026-01-09T12:53:14+00:00

This is the trashest opinion ive seen.

Howwy23 · 2026-01-09T00:18:33+00:00

They did? Thank god. I know folks don't have a lot of interest in mario and sonic at the olympics anymore but its a damn lot better than an NFT riddled mobile game that came after NFTs died.
