Great to see Fallout 4 performing as well as it is. PS4 and even PS4 Pro had many drops to the mid-to-low 20's when initially released, though Pro did eventually get very close to a 30 fps lock with a few updates and especially if you stayed on the boost mode version. 

40 fps modes need to be a standard on SW2 going forward, in my opinion. 

Still wondering why this game doesn't use DLSS. TAA is available/applied in other versions, so it is a good candidate for it being a simple patch. 1080p native + DLAA would probably look as good, if not better than the PS4 Pro version at 1440p TAA, and you get seemingly smoother frame-rates (even in 30fps mode.)  Hoping for a DLSS update in the future, and if that comes I might buy it, assuming a price drop. $60 isn't something I can justify for this game, as is, especially since I can get similar performance on my Rog Ally and I have the game there already. Same thing with Skyrim, which I bought too many times. 

Edit: Oh apparently 30fps mode is 1440p and 40fps mode is 1080p when docked from what I have been seeing? Surprisingly great, if so. That puts SW2 basically on par with PS4 Pro, but with what seems to be a more stable 30fps. Still think DLSS, even at a lower internal resolution, could clean things up further.

Capcom's Resident Evil 9 director Koshi Nakanishi says he was surprised at how good the Switch 2 hardware was when they first tested it, it easily ran the game



Third parties in general seem quite pleased with Switch 2, much more so than Switch 1.

Not only have there been a fair few comments on it being very capable and easy to develop for, (relative to its form factor) but actions speak louder than words in that they're much more willing to actually port their games across than before.
