| curl-6 said: FF7 Intergrade on Switch 2 looks to hold up remarkably closely to the PS5, Series X, and PC versions. Impressive stuff. |
Pretty much what I expect.
Slower hardware in terms of paper specs, but definitely smarter and more efficient hardware that let's it hang with it's contemporaries and in some cases, even beat them. (Series S.)
It will be interesting to see how the Switch 2 holds up when/if Microsoft drops a new next-gen console sometime in the next 12 months... And how AMD handles the transition of RDNA2/3 integrated graphics for handhelds over to RDNA4... Massive IPC gains to be had, especially once you start using FSR4.
I think what Nintendo needs to work on is a bifurication of form factors to hit other price-segments and... A usable display in a premium console. (OLED!)
And of course... A die-shrink to improve the poor battery life... That Samsung 10nm "rebranded" as an 8nm process is not doing it any favors on that front... Which makes the Switch 2 even more impressive that it can do what it does without having a max of 30mins of battery life.
Maybe Samsungs 7/6/5nm process would be the ideal target, they use similar libraries so should be a good fit? TSMC is likely to expensive for Nintendo these days.
Regardless, Nintendo has lots of directions and improvements to potentially take the Switch 2 handheld over the next few years, but I think I speak for most that a decent OLED panel is definitely on top of the pack.
