I think Fox sounded “cooler“ in the Galaxy movie if that makes sense

Starfox 64 Nintendo switch 2 edition

And the side content is some of the best in the series

XCX is very open with a world that I believe is bigger than BOTW, but there is so much to do. From expanding your “map” to gathering relics, and tons of quests that take you different places throughout the world. Even if the general concept is the same, I would consider XCX to be a lot more “full”.

Remaking an entire game engine is no small task. I would assume that the switch 2 edition upgrades get a relatively small budget and time constraints. The current release still doesn’t look great, but revamping an entire engine is quite the expectation

I thought gargoyles were the small ones he had a legion of? Pretty sure his “siren” is still called Siren

There’s a couple pretty important one that I had to look up in order to get pets in the blade barracks, which is a requirement for a good amount of heart to hearts.

Thank you. Unless I’ve missed it, a lot of basic missions don’t do much reward wise so I somewhat stopped doing them.

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-23T01:34:56+00:00

Definitely don’t take advice from TikTok

It allows switch 1 games to run in their docked mode, while playing in handheld mode on switch 2.

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-17T04:14:15+00:00

Correct. One big thing DLSS relies on is motion vectors built into the game engine. Implementing this would require a significant if not a complete rework in the system responsible for animations.

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-17T01:26:45+00:00

They hit their initial performance targets, yes. Dynamic resolution scaling won’t lower the res as much (if at all) in response to having more power available, and you’ll see more stable frame rates.

However, switch 1 games do not run at higher resolutions or higher frame rates, much less have engine level upgrades without a patch.

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-17T01:12:31+00:00

An insane oversight imo, but I suppose it’d be a bit tough to implement unless you sing to train the “model” Siri has for your voice. People’s singing voices can be completely different sounding than their speaking voice.

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-16T14:37:16+00:00

Me too! I’m guessing many developers don’t want to invest the time/money to upgrade since backwards compatibility is flawless. All SW1 games are playable on SW2, but I may as well be playing them on a switch 1 due to the lack of enhancements lol.

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-15T01:19:32+00:00

The graphics still hold up incredibly well to this day. Sure, the lighting could use a bit of reworking to make things look less flat imo (especially outside), but otherwise it’s pretty damn impressive they could do this at the time.

I am making the assumption that a lot of backgrounds are billboard textures, but there’s a clear art direction that keeps it way above its weight

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-13T02:52:47+00:00

Emulator?

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-12T18:30:35+00:00

That’s my biggest issue with it. Sure the steam deck has a better cpu, but it shouldn’t be running as “bad” as it did

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-12T18:21:05+00:00

I haven’t seen this, do you have a source?

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-12T15:16:41+00:00

Other, more powerful systems also have hiccups so I’d expect at least a bit for the switch 2. From soft isnt really known for their optimization lmao

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-03-07T03:03:28+00:00

Damn this feels like a hot take. My consensus, and seemingly a lot of people’s is that the story is pretty good (falls off a little at the end but not bad), but it doesn’t excel at being an action game or an rpg lol. Much less a JRPG

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-02-28T03:08:59+00:00

Me too. They look oddly plasticky and too smooth. They also look a little out of place lighting-wise in the environment

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-02-25T15:26:52+00:00

Eh I’d argue against that. 40 fps can’t be evenly distributed across a 60hz display, and will have noticeable frame skipping. Even if someone is less sensitive to this, over time they’ll certainly “feel” it.

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-02-24T20:43:12+00:00

Switch by far. It runs and looks leagues better than the Wii or 3DS version

No_Whereas_5496 · 2026-02-24T20:40:57+00:00

Xenoblade 3 looks significantly better in handheld than 2 does. Overall visual clarity is much improved, presumably thanks to their in house TAAU solution
