Gg, could you link to the slingbag that you are using for a carrying case?



FANDARE Outdoor Sling Chest Bag... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08S3N5335?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

It's really good. I've seen it on ebay USA too so it might be cheaper there.

The back is padded, the front is a hard shell. It has a combination lock built in. It's a sling bag so less cumbersome than a backpack and you can change the strap orientation to use as a one strap shoulder bag or chest bag.

Also has a hidden side pocket which fits a bottle or pair of joycons.

And it has a USB pass through port for rigging up your Powerbank and charging it while the battery stays in the bag.

I managed to fit a Switch 2 with joycons attached, the controller grip, a 24 card game case, 4 joycon straps, a charging grip for Switch 1 joycons, and headphones.

Also seen this carrying case specifically designed for portable consoles, steam deck, switch 2 etc though i would check the dimensions carefully first.

It looks more sleek and probably offers better protection than my one but is slimmer and seems to fit a lot less than my one.

I downloaded Fast Fusion and... Lego City!

Been 8 years since I played this, I'm hoping for a locked framerate.

Great news, although I only tested my Switch 1 games portable where they suffered from 720p resolution - almost ALL Switch 1 games, even unpatched runs better on Switch 2.

Games that were unstable but have a 30 fps cap are now locked 30.

Same for 60fps target games, they are now 60fps locked.

Games with an uncapped framerate now boost to a 60fps, never dipping in most cases.

Games are loading faster across the board, Animal Crossing loads 1 min slower on Switch 1.

Other games with dynamic resolution scaling hold a high resolution now with gamers saying they look sharper.

Of course they will still have low res textures and stuff.

I tried Arms with the patch, this was already really polished, now it's in 4k. You still have to use a grip or play in handheld for normal controls. Great game, still feels so fresh.

I watched a video on Dragon Warrior 1 on NES and was surprised that you don't have a party, just a single character from begining to end. Kinda reminds me of a turn-based Zelda. That frequent battle music would drive me nuts, lol.

I like the original Dragon Quest, but it's for completely nostalgic reasons. I just like how the world fits in with the other two games of the original trilogy.

I've gone back a few times to replay it, but I rarely get more than about 2 or 3 hours in before I get tired of the battles which are essentially: Attack, attack, heal if the battle is still going on, repeat as necessary.

That said, I still prefer it to Dragon Quest 2. Because it's such a basic game, it doesn't bog you down with filler side quests. It's very straight into the point. DQ2 is a goddamn mess. I'm not sure how much extra work they're putting into these games for the 2D-HD Re-Release, but if they don't do too much, I think a lot of people are going to wonder why they bought it.

OMG I'm so happy right now.

Switch 2 fixed Lego City. It already had awesome image quality but the framerate was jarring on Switch.

Switch 2 just locks it, I can't even tell if it's 60 or 30 it's just smooth and the image quality is so good.

Now I need to check Doom.

Holy shit I've been playing Fast Fusion.

Controls are way better than the Wii u/ switch game. Feels more like Fzero but holy shit this game looks great.

There's 4 graphics modes, even on basic 1080p it looks great, but when I shift it up each gear it looks better and better.

Smooth AF too.

Edit - what in the actual world? I enabled Ultra Quality mode.

Wtf? How is a 1cm device doing this? When Shinen said 4k textures etc I thought they were bull shitting...

Well I tried the Age of Calamity demo again, framerate was completely smooth.

This system is 1 update away from being totally awesome, allowing switch 1 games to run at higher resolutions in handheld mode.

I've seen videos today of The Witcher 3 at a solid framerate and running much sharper.

Honestly if they do fix the 720p handheld resolution for switch 1 games I'd sell my OLED.

Lol^

I made a thread collecting all the ways Switch 2 is forcing improvements to switch 1 games

Godamn RE6 now running at 60fps 1080p no DRS dips and with gyro aiming?

Might have to replay this. It was fun but technically quite inconsistent before.

The Leslie Benzies interview is legitimately interesting. For those of you who don;t know him he was "the fixer" at Rockstar over the course of the GTA series development.

Nice. That’s one of a number of Switch 1 games I have sitting in my backlog.

I read that as "fluffer" at first glance. I will check it out.
