I'm becoming a bit numb to gaming problems these days.I won't even notice things and then it breaks out that something is really bad and I'm like, what's this?
Sometimes some 30fps games seem to feel like 60 to me. I can tell if they're side by side, but a smooth 30 I don't really have a problem with.
I think some eagle eyed people are saying ghosting happens in 2D pixel art games? I personally refuse to play virtually all my unpatched swith 1 games on the switch 2 screen.
Because of the resolution scaling. I have a feeling this is more the problem as scaling causes artifacts.
I have no problem with the image quality, vibrancy or smoothness of the screen playing games actually made for Switch 2 so far.
I was a little underwhelmed at first as it didn't pop for me. But the more time I spend in free roam, you realise just how much variety there is and interesting things to discover. The open world format is very fun and had a lot of potential.It needs a few tweaks here and there. I also appreciate the £35 price, as I got the bundle.
But, I do something else to play with it, a deeper story based game like Cyberpunk. There are other alternatives but you guys probably played them already on other systems.
If I only had MKW and another racing game, Fast Fusion I'd be getting a little bored right now.
Cyberpunk is the perfect compliment to this launch for me. And I'm glad DK Bananza is quite close.
I think Mario 64, was that a launch game?I remember playing it at a friend's house and it was one of the first 3D games I'd ever played, it was mind bending at the time.
Otherwise I really like Rogue Squadron as a SW fan. It really showed off the GC tech too.
Good calls. I don't think anything will ever compare to playing Mario64 for the first time after plugging in the N64. It's a bit sad for kids these days that that sense of wonder isn't there anymore. They're just used to everything looking amazing and being free.
Big fan of Rogue Squadron too, although I feel Luigi's Mansion was visually more impressive. It really emphasized that generational leap with all the little visual details and with how emotive Luigi was.
Charged both Switch 2 and battery to max.
Got 3.5 hours in total out of it playing a mix of Cyberpunk and MKW.
Before I was only getting 2 hrs 15 mins, without the battery.
It doesn't sound like a huge bump (remember I deliberately bought the lightest lowest capacity battery) so the handheld won't be too heavy when it's attached.
So an hour 15 mins extra actually feels like a lot more when you've been playing it for over 3 hrs straight.
I have a larger heavy 20'000 mah battery, I tried it on switch once and it couldn't charge and play at the same time. So the battery was draining from Switch 1 when playing it.
It would only charge when it was in sleep mode.
This new battery suprised me as it did charge the battery as I was playing but it got really hot when it was powering switch 2.
When charging the battery itself it doesn't get hot.
Thinking of getting a 10'000 man magsafe battery if it isn't too heavy as one user got 6 hours playing Cyberpunk.
Zelda TP for me is easily the best. The whole Wii experience I loved, yeah it was technically a GC game but I love motion controls, it was fun to mess with them and have one of the greatest games of all time at launch.
Waverace Blue Storm too.Really want that on switch online.
BTW have you guys tried Switch online classic collection on the expansion pack?
It's not something I ever would have tried if it wasn't gifted to me by a really nice person.
Trying them all out now that more games have been added, I'm not sure how often I'd use it but it's very cool to just casually click an icon and seconds later be playing Fzero GX or Perfect Dark on a handheld.
The games aren't downloaded individually either, so if you choose to install the app all the games availible for those platform are on your system all at once.
It's definitely a solid selection, but I still don't like the pay wall.
Or premium priced stuff.
I'd forgotten that was a launch game, Wii Sports is so heavily ingrained in my mind as the Wii launch game.Better than Luigi's Mansion and Twilight Princess. Worse than everything else.
SNES rules launch Nintendo.

So I don't have HDR problems, there's actually an easier fix just by adjusting the test pattern.
But the experts were saying there was a perfect way to set it so I just tried it.
The one problem I was having was Cyberpunk on the Toshiba outputs at 4k, but on the Samsung the tv was displaying at 1440p.
Using this guys tips, simply turning on game mode has it now displaying at 4k.
But to get the HDR test the way he says to do it is to turn off all sorts of stuff that affects the test pattern.
I did all that, I set the HDR calibration. And the result is that it looks worse than what I had before.
However some cretin came in to use the tv before I could switch all those enhancing options back on.
I'm hoping that will get it to looking better than the way I had it before. If not this guys settings aren't worth it.
Simply leaving the test sun on the left more solid and not setting the brightness too high in the switch 2 calibration menu does it all in an easier way.
Resetera have tried it lol:

Be careful what you ask for I guess but what's nice is this user did a couple of awesome slider option screenshots that really show what DLSS can do:

If you guys ever want to get a game.from a different region eshop it's not too bad.
You need a different email address to your main account. You just select your desired region on the Nintendo website accounts page to create an account and they send you a confirmation code.
Then you create a user on your switch.and link it to that foreign account you created by signing in.
Then to buy you have to buy an eshop card from a site choosing your desired region. They email you the code in seconds.

I used this site which was recommended by reddit and Trust pilot. It worked.
The Japanese one is a bit more difficult so I used the Google translate lens to translate anything the camera can see.
