So Nintendo isn't going to boost performance of Switch games on the S2 via BC? Instead they will resell the same games and run them at better performance? The better performance is something they could easily offer now, but are purposely preventing just to be awful to consumers? Jesus, you make Nintendo sound like a terrible company. :( Sorry, I don't view Nintendo in the same light. Nintendo is a damn good company and have their hardware designed for good reasons; battery and life span. Feel free to have the last word. I actually play games and would prefer to talk actual games, not your console warz. |
For free? Which Nintendo are you talking about? Was Wind Waker HD on Wii U a "free" upgrade for those who had the GameCube version? They likely will charge people a patch fee at least to get performance increases on Switch 2.
At best maybe they will be nice and give it to you a "free patch" but you have to buy a Switch 2 to get that. Which is in itself 100% enough of a reason to not use that feature on the Switch if you don't need to. That gives another big reason for Switch 1 owners to have to upgrade to a Switch 2, if you want to enjoy all your favorite Switch 1 in 4K/60 fps whatever, you have to buy a Switch 2. If they had gone ahead and released a Switch Pro it would have muddied that whole idea.
The overclocked Mariko Switch has perfectly acceptable battery life of 3-4 hours too, it's been tested over and over again. This was good enough for the launch Switch, and it's perfectly acceptable battery life today.
