@HammerKirby They say it reported to be higher than 30 FPS. But I doubt the game will be at locked 60 FPS. I am guessing maybe 40 to 45 FPS. But we shall see.
Capcom did say they had no issues of porting the game to Switch 2 though.
@PinderSchloss Okay but that was back then more common during the Wii, 3DS eras. Nowadays people want the same version on all platforms.
Take EA FIFA. The Switch version of that is completely different from the Xbox One and PS4 version counterparts. It has much less content compared to those 2 BUT it was cheaper and it ran well. But yet people still complained because they didn't get the same game on the Switch despite it having the same name.
And then when EA FC came to Switch, the game ran worse compared to FIFA legacy editions BUT it was feature parity (for the most part) with other consoles.
Making 3rd party games specifically for one console may have been the norm during the Wii and 3DS eras but that is just not as common anymore.
@PinderSchloss But you should know that the Switch 2 is no way just as powerful as a PS5 or an Xbox Series X is. This is already well known among almost everyone.
If you put a PS5 game on the less powerful Nintendo Switch 2, do expect cutbacks in terms of visuals, performance and what not. That is just how it is.
If the Switch 2 was just as powerful as a PS5 then that is a different story.
@Quarbit @AllBLK I am not sure what you guys are expecting. If you are expecting PS5 or Xbox Series X level of performance for a hybrid handheld, then you will sadly be disappointed.
@Nailz Capcom is usually pretty good with optimization and I think RE9 is NOT open world so the game should be optimized well. RE games in general tend to be optimized really well.
I think RE9 will run well (on all platforms) provided it isn't open world (which it probably isn't).
Performance and resolution on both Switch 1 and 2 versions of Silksong are good on both consoles.
Differences just bottle down to technical differences. Switch 2 version can run at 120 fps while Switch 1 runs it at 60 fps. Switch 2 version in dock can run at 4K, while Switch 1 version in dock runs at 1080p.
Overall, resolution and performance on both Switch 1 and 2 versions of Silksong are great.
@Spoony_Tech I honestly doubt it. That game didn't run so hot on a base PS5 iirc. Plus the PC version has multiple issues. The Steam page for the game still has "Mostly Negative Reviews" now.

Re: Review: Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Switch) - Still Out Of This World
I'll buy each one separately. I hope it runs well on Switch 1.
Re: Hands On: Resident Evil Requiem Switch 2 Footage - A Surprisingly Tense Port
@HammerKirby Idk for sure.
Re: Hands On: Resident Evil Requiem Switch 2 Footage - A Surprisingly Tense Port
@Deniz No clue. But in my earlier comment, I mentioned it seems to be somewhere between 40 to 45 FPS.
Re: Hands On: Resident Evil Requiem Switch 2 Footage - A Surprisingly Tense Port
@HammerKirby they might do what what they did with Village and put it at 45 FPS. The base PS4 version of Village was at 900p, 45 FPS.
And on PS5, it’s 45 FPS with ray tracing on.

Re: Hands On: Resident Evil Requiem Switch 2 Footage - A Surprisingly Tense Port
@mikegamer Right UE4.
Yeah Unreal Engine is bound to cause issues
Re: Hands On: Resident Evil Requiem Switch 2 Footage - A Surprisingly Tense Port
@mikegamer that game is using UE4 right? If so, it’s bound to cause more problems that Capcom’s own RE engine.
Re: Round Up: Minecraft Live (September 2025) - New Drops, Mobs, Weapons, DLC And More
@Artonide Beats me. Maybe they think the Switch 1 version is still good enough.

The interview states that it wasn't very difficult to port RE9UIEM to Switch 2.
Re: Resident Evil Requiem Gameplay On Switch 2 Emerges From Tokyo Game Show
That actually looks pretty good. Hopefully frame rate holds up.

Re: Here's When Hades 2 Releases In Your Time Zone
@SonnyBonds 720p 60 FPS on both handheld and docked mode.
Hopefully it runs stable.
Re: Here's When Hades 2 Releases In Your Time Zone
If you're buying it on Switch 1, keep in note that it is at 720p 60 FPS on both handheld and docked mode.
Also the physical version will be out in November (and its on a full cartridge, no GKC).
Also the physical version works on Switch 1 but you can't use the upgrade pack (because that is for Switch 2).
Re: Little Nightmares III 'Necropolis Demo' Now Available On Switch And Switch 2
How does it run on Switch 1?
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 For Switch?
My idea is to get SMG 1 first for 40 dollars.
And then when MAR10 comes around, I will get SMG 2 on sale.

It is 40 dollars individually.

Re: Nintendo Direct Announced For Friday, 12th September 2025
@AussieMcBucket oof imagine
Re: Nintendo Direct Announced For Friday, 12th September 2025
6O MINUTES? Thats 1 hour. Should be lot of stuff in there.
I expect some first party (both Switch 1 and 2 perhaps), some 3rd party (both as well) but who knows.
I am hoping for Resident Evil for Switch 2 and still have the hope of PS1 trilogy releasing on the Switch 1. And ofc a Super Mario collection.
Also Nintendo, why do you hate us folks who live in the West Coast??? 6 AM AGAIN 😡😡😡

Re: First Impressions: Same But Different? - Our Initial Hours With Hollow Knight: Silksong
@RustyBolt I hear minimal to no issues really for Switch 1. Same as first hollow knight.
The SwitchUp review is really good though so I recommend you watch that.
Re: First Impressions: Same But Different? - Our Initial Hours With Hollow Knight: Silksong
@Indielink ik, I was talking about docked mode resolution specifically
Re: First Impressions: Same But Different? - Our Initial Hours With Hollow Knight: Silksong
@gcunit I watched a SwitchUp review of it.
Performance and resolution on both Switch 1 and 2 versions of Silksong are good on both consoles.
Differences just bottle down to technical differences. Switch 2 version can run at 120 fps while Switch 1 runs it at 60 fps. Switch 2 version in dock can run at 4K, while Switch 1 version in dock runs at 1080p.
Overall, resolution and performance on both Switch 1 and 2 versions of Silksong are great.
Re: First Impressions: Same But Different? - Our Initial Hours With Hollow Knight: Silksong
How does the game run on Switch 1? That’s what I want to know
Re: Rumour: Resident Evil Requiem Could Be Heading To The Switch 2
I don’t trust Dusk Golem but IF this is true, then that’s great to hear
Re: Feature: The Road To Silksong: Remembering Seven Years Of Hope, Hype, And Clown Makeup
I might get Silksong even though I never played Hollow Knight so let’s see

Re: Gear.Club Unlimited 3 Speeds Onto Switch 2 Later This Year
@X68000 They say Forza Horizon 6 might be announced according to leaks and rumors but take it with a grain of salt.
Also I don't know how Forza Horizon can work on Switch 2's digital triggers.
