GRID Legends: Deluxe Edition Switch 2 Graphics And Performance Mode Detailed

This is my most anticipated Switch 2 game!

Same with Autosport. Let’s see how this turns out.

Now release a physical version please!
This game deserves a physical release.

Oh, that's smart to support the GameCube controller!

GRID Autosport was the best Switch 1 racing game, would make sense for this to become the best Switch 2 racing game.

This „Balanced Mode“ for handheld sounds like a mode targeting 40 fps. For everyone who has never experienced 40 fps: It looks SOO much smoother than 30 fps. At the same time, this Balanced Mode could offer more stable framerates and higher resolutions and/or more graphical features than the Performance Mode.

Now let’s hope that DLSS and VRR with Low Framerate Compensation are implemented, and we have the first technical showcase where every Switch 2 feature is used.

@JJtheTexan up to 60 fps*

I am looking forward to checking this game out, having thoroughly enjoyed Grid Autosport on Switch 1. I might even get an NSO GameCube controller for the analog triggers. If it ended up only ever being used with this game, it'd still be worth it.

Man, if more driving games start using the analog GC triggers, I'm totally going to buy one. I really hope this becomes a trend. It solves my only big gripe with controls on Switch/Switch 2.

I’m glad Feral have dev kits already, they did some stellar ports for Switch

@Freek Yep! There's quite a few games I really want that don't have Physical releases, Tony Hawk's 3 & 4, Original Sin 2 and now this! The days of phsyical are numbered unfortunately

Great news and a delicious release date would be the cherry on top 🍒

@Otimus still baffles me to this day that Nintendo never implemented analog triggers to their own controllers. Making us buy a certain one just for that really is Nintendo all over

i saw Raining !! Great add

Sounds promising! I’ve always been a bit jealous of Xbox owners with Forza - though I never played any of them 😝 - but I hear good things about this so might bite

Kind of already own this elsewhere, but it is an amazing game. Much better then it ended up scoring (at least in my opinion).
There are however "difficulties" with me double dipping, hard to justify a controller purchase for a single game, and ergonomics are just not there for me.. are there any 3rd party cheapo options with recognized analog triggers?

If they release a true physical copy as well this will be a day 1 buy without hesitation! This is great news though and looking forward to this and hopefully a true physical release!

Man I wish we’d get a Trials game ported to S2 with analog triggers support via NGC controller.
But this was already possible on S1 and in the end no other game supported them afaik… but hey a man can dream!

I played this and all the DLC on Xbox when it was first released, and had clocked 85+ hours by the time I was done. It was good fun.

I hope they have a reasonable upgrade price.

Hmm, but will it support analog triggers on the original Gamecube controller by way of the GCN four-port adapter that launched ages ago for 8-player Smash bros?

Is this more arcade like or Sim?

@milonorth

I heard the term simcade being thrown around for this ;D As I understand it, leaning more towards arcade style but it’s no beetle adventure racing hehe. (I looked into comparisons with Forza motorsport and that is more sim with better physics.)

Someone on here can for sure give a better description though!

@DarkAngelus31 I hope so, I don't have the new NSO Gamecube controller but the original one with the 4-player adapter.

Looks good, but I'd of liked to have seen Grid (2019) first. Now it's unlikely we'll see it hit Switch 2.

I'd be up for seeing Dirt 4 getting a Switch 2 port if this one sells well. It's a solid simcade that I think would be a good fit for the system, unlike more sim oriented games like the Dirt Rally entries.

@BaldB3lper78 What original game? This game was never on Switch 1

We deserve an analog trigger version of the official pro controller. I'm tired of Nintendo's constant second class bs for racing games+analog triggers.
