Is that the projected bandwidth of the game cart media?

Probably. It'd been some time since I saw it.  The cart makes more sense.

I love mario and zelda, but I find pkimin and luigi mansion series so underrated. Pikmin 4 replay is going well. Such a great game.

They are least had the decency to later release a model expressly to shorten the load times.

It's not SSD, the Famiiboards shipping leaks shows it'll utilize UFS 3.1 

It's plenty fast for what it'll have to manage on the sucessor and suited for the smaller form factor model. SSD's would be a drain on the battery

I think it's okay to bump this thread because there's new stuff to discuss and although it was previously only discussing first-party titles, now DF has released a video on their most impressive third-party titles on the Switch. I haven't watched it yet but maybe we can get some actual good discussion out of this one. Will share my thoughts later when I've had a chance to go through it. 

I'll have to sit down and watch the whole video after work, but scanning the written article I agree with a lot of their picks such as Ace Combat 7, (I'm actually playing through that now and it looks phenomenal) the Crysis Remasters, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Sniper Elite 4, Zombie Army 4, Alien Isolation, etc.

Stuff like Witcher 3, Doom Eternal, etc I find more impressive in terms of "wow I can't believe this runs on the system" more than being among the best looking Switch games per se, as they do take a hit in terms of fidelity due to how demanding they are.

Here's the written version btw: https://www.eurogamer.net/digitalfoundry-2024-best-graphics-on-nintendo-switch-seven-years-of-third-party-developer-brilliance

Doom: Eternal and The Witcher 3, and Ark (fixed) are some of the most impressive in terms of how they pulled them off, but they obviously are not the best graphics at all. The graphics suck because it's such an undertaking to get the games on Switch.
Luigi's Mansion 3 is the best to me. It fulfills the appearance of an animated movie beautifully.

Best looking 3rd party game would be Sparks of Hope for me. Great looking game.

Stuff like Doom, I think it is cool it runs on the switch but is meh at best for me. 540p at 30 fps isn't playable, personal opinion.

Okay I finally got to watch the whole video.
Personally I should swap some examples like Yooka Laylee and GRID Autosport for stuff like Outlast II and The Vanishing of Ethan Carter which looks impressively close to the PS4/XBO versions.
