After Raven posted that video about 120hz mode on Switch 2, I also saw a video by RGT on YouTube about SF6.
So I tested it myself in various games.
Mario Kart World displays at 1440p regardless on whether you have 120hz toggled on.
But Streetfighter 6 displays at 1080p if 120hz is toggled on in the Switch 2 display settings. When I turned if off and returned to the game it was 4k and looked almost identical to the ps5 version.
It's possible all the previous Switch 2 footage we've seen was 1080p output without realising it.
I tried Cyberpunk and with 120hz mode on it displays at 1080p and looked great I thought. When I toggled off 120hz, it displays at 1440p and looks much better.
I don't get it because sf6 and Cyberpunk don't have 120hz modes.
Need to test fast fusion.
I'm glad Cyberpunk is being rewarded.
How do you even Fuse vehicles?Fast RMX was the Wii U game ported to switch? They must have added a lot of tracks.
Yeah, I assume they added a number of tracks, although from what I can find only 8 tracks were added through DLC?
The fusing happens in the shop. You chose a vehicle you own, select fuse and chose which other one you want to fuse it with. Thing is, you need to own both carts, so there's a lot of buying the same vehicles over and over again.
As for the gamesharing: I tried it with my son locally, and locally it works pretty well. Resolution is lower than when playing split screen, with the receiving Switch looking especially grainy. But hey, you do get a whole screen instead of just half.
I'm more focused on just unlocking all the GPs in the higher leagues.
So this is weird, FAST Fusion has two 4k modes. When my switch 2 is set to 4k output the tv says its only receiving a 1440p resolution.
I assumed the switch 2 would do some final image pass son that everything would receive a 4k output but that's not true. Mario Kart is 1440p.
SF6 normal 1 v 1 mode is 4k when 120hz is off. Cyberpunk 2077 is a 1080p game but turn off 120hz and it outputs at 1440p and unlocks beast mode.
I didn't think it was possible for it to look any better but in 1440p the clarity and contrast is much better, it seems to unleash HDR to work properly too.
Seriously impressed.
If you own Switch 2 you need to toggle HDR only for compatible games and turn 120hz off in the Switch 2 settings menu. Huge difference.
I've been stuck on Phantasy Star but found a guide book scan on the Internet Archive that pointed me in the right direction.
I'm nearing the end of Clair Obscur, but there's lots of side stuff to do so who knows how long I'll drag it out.
Great show btw Aspro and Vader, but where were the Resident Evil 9 content!?
The hovercraft is hidden in a town on the first planet you start out on, but you cannot find it in that town unless you speak to a guy on another planet and you must answer his "Yes" question. I answered "no" when I initially spoke to him, and the game won't unlock your ability to find the hovercraft in that town. And you can't see it at all whether you have it unlocked or not. You just have to be in the right house and use the search feature to find it. Now I can travel over water!
Old school gaming.
