I'd like to see a port of Alan Wake II which IMO is still the best looking game on the PS5.

It can run a bit rough on the Steam Deck, I wonder with better optimization from an actual developer for the Switch 2 specifically and better image quality thanks to DLSS whether or not you can get a significantly better looking version of the game on Switch 2 at a more stable 30 fps. Certainly I think Cyberpunk 2077 looks better than the Steam Deck version (ditto for Hogwarts as well).

If they port Wukong to the Switch 2, I'll definitely buy it. I finished the game on PC last month and it's a masterpiece. In the simulation video that the Chinese tech channel made, they used one of the most demanding part of the game (the intro fight) and the game runs at 1080p, DLSS quality at 30fps in docked mode, and 40-45fps with DLSS Ultra performance in docked mode as well. In handheld mode, to hit 30fps, they have to use DLSS Ultra performance (it looks really bad).

It does seem to run ok-ish on Steam Deck, I mean certainly not the prettiest version here, but it runs. 

I think it might be fair to share you get a significant performance boost from a developer sitting down and making a version specifically for a console, so I would expect if this comes to Switch 2 that the game will look better than this.
