Paper Mario can run at 60 fps on an overclocked Switch, lol

For *other* people who aren't shit posting, many Switch games see significant performance increases, lots of 60 fps games on existing Switch hardware. 

Nintendo wants people to buy these games again on Switch 2 at the higher settings, plain and simple. 

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.

Also, I just wanna butt in and ask the question for the elephant in the room:

"higher settings" relative to what?. What the Switch 2 can handle?, what a PC with a 4090 can handle?, there's no specifics given by Nintendo, and their track record history proves they run a tight ship with "we're doing things this specific way", which tells me it's going to run at what their system can handle, not what everyone else is doing (which is running circles around the current Switch, and eventually with Switch 2). 

Nintendo stopped playing with power since their gamecube got it's face caved in by the much weaker and higher selling PS2. There's almost no reason to believe that now, only with the Switch 2 are they going to go "omega" level and just pull out all "teh power". I find it nonsensical and make-believe, that ppl really think the Switch 2 is going to be "something else", it's a mobile device using a mobile chipset that isn't any more advanced that what you get with the highest CPU and GPU on the current market, and if anything it'll be far, far weaker than what's currently on offer.


Also, who buys a Switch for "higher settings"?, who's going to do that for Switch 2, Soundwave?, because normies DO NOT CARE for settings like core gamers do, and sad to say, the uber casuals, the people who literally feed into the bad practices within this industry, are the same crowd that dwarfs the core gamers and just don't give a rats arse about "higher settings", if they did they'd buy a PS5, an Xbox or a souped up PC, not a Switch 2. 

Also I can totally see Nintendo getting you to rebuy the same games again, or at best, getting you to buy Switch 1 copies at their usual high prices, thus giving them an excuse not to perma lower them when Switch 2 arrives, that makes a win-win for them (lose-lose for us). They've made us rebuy games in the past, and currently we have to sub to Ninty online just to play some ill gained roms they've barely modified, as well as taking games off the store after Fomo periods, so yeah, I can absolutely see that happening.
