@PushMyGran86 this is exactly it, the raw power of the PS5 cannot be denied but because of its tech its got to compromise on things.

While both consoles support ray tracing, their approaches differ:

Switch 2: By leveraging DLSS, the Switch 2 can potentially deliver ray-traced visuals at higher perceived resolutions without taxing the hardware excessively. This is particularly advantageous given the console's portable nature and power constraints.​

PS5: Offers more raw power and can handle ray tracing natively at higher resolutions, but without an equivalent to DLSS, it may face challenges in maintaining high frame rates with intensive ray-traced effects.​

@carlos82 the difference between ns2 and PS5 will be interesting as whilst the switch will be limited by its form factor and power so I dont expect it to look nearly as clean as PS5 is could actually be superior to PS5 when it comes to raytracing as PS5 uses AMD which is behind the curve on this tech. (they have done wonders catching up but still a step behind for now).

the big question is how will developers work with the switch hardware as they could make some really really good looking games which match ps5 in terms of how the average player sees them if they omtimize their games in the right way.

(as a note im not saying the switch 2 has more power just that it has the potential to match if developers make wise decisions)

@Uncle_Franklin point taken. but my point still remains true, the last 20 years have really seen a big change in society which has left alot of people (rightly or wrongly) feeling insecure about their own views being targeted and the last thing a business should do is join in as it could lose them money. either way one line in a game and everyone loses their mind..... be kind to each other and this whole argument goes away

@Uncle_Franklin thats true but that wasnt made socially acceptable because business's promoted it. its because as a society we all agreed that its not that big of a deal. certain demographics are going to be strongly against the whole LGBT+ thing and its moved so fast that I think as a society we havent got to the point where its yet accepted fully. (older generations for instance the term you cant teach an old dog new tricks comes to mind). as a business it can be a very risky move to promote something thats not accepted by everyone as you can turn some customers against you as a brand doing so.

either or.... its still a great game and im happy people are able to relate to characters

@BLAZINOAH Ive never been a mario fan. always thought of it as a really basic and old fashioned game untill I played paper mario TOK. got hooked on that for weeks

@Notsoavid its very true that they rely on their family friendly image. its why I always say that political and social issues of the day should be kept out of business as its a real divider and causes un-needed friction in an already divided world

I'm a console collector so I will probably hack my original (which I haven't done and don't do untill the next generation console is out regardless of brand) and then store my 2 other (oled and lite).

and now I've missed out due to the age verification. Nintendo is seriously crappy when it comes to anything online.

@lemonjellydude im having this exact problem now. my age is on the account. I pay for the family plus membership and im the admin and its asking me to verify my age. PINA.

it does say cloud version though so im guessing streaming

More Ram maybe 8 instead of 4 and at a faster frequency. theres no point in having a beefier CPU/GPU and not have fast enough ram to pass the data back and forth. I think if that was upgraded and the newer processor used in the revised switch was clocked to original specs then we would see a massive improvement straight away. not sure what the temps would be on that though.
would be nice to see someone overclock the revised switch so see how much power could be added untill the temps match the old model.

If they wanted to make a quick Pro version they could easily use this new version with a better thermal paste and up the clocks. Just add a little more ram and it's done. Anyone else think this is what will happen?

@kang81 yeah it's coming to epic game store for free on the 18th so I'm getting it there as well as the switch version is really bad handheld. If you cant play it handheld then may as well go console or pc

Mutant year zero would massively benefit from this as it uses dynamic resolution. On standard handheld it's ugly and pixelated like you wouldn't believe but if you click the processor docked speeds on handheld it's a night and day difference

Good Luck to everyone. Here fingers crossed as that switch dock looks amazing + diablo is my current favorite game (until Vampyr is release at least)
