The big thing people seems to miss in the Switch 2 versus PC Handheld comparison is that games aren't built specifically for the latter. They are PC games first and foremost. Switch 2 games will be built specifically for the platform. They will have a level optimization not possible on games running on a Steam Deck or Rog Ally X. It's why I feel having more than one configuration for a console (Xbox Series X and Series S) undermines the key strength of the platform. A fixed box in which every user has identical specs which allows developers to code for it's exact hardware. It's why there are games that work on the Switch that you'd think have no business running on the system. |
No doubt that will be true for 1st party games. But for third party games? I don't see third party building games specifically for the S2. Games will be built for Xbox, ps5 and PC. I can't fathom Capcom making Wilds, SF7 and RE9 based on S2 specifications. |
But that's what devs did for Switch. Why we had some impossible ports. If Switch 2 sells nearly as well as Switch 1. Devs won't avoid money and with Nintendo now owning a port studio they may pay for some of those ports. Nintendo paid for the distribution of Wolfenstein II.
