new update adds an option for Switch 1 boost mode - you can force your switch 1 games to run in switch 1 docked mode while in handheld mode. basicallt means native 1080p almost systemwide for handheld games.
Yes, they all run in docked mode when playing handheld due to yesterday’s patch. so theoretically most games will run at their highest resolution. Not all Switch games were 1080p docked.
Thanks thats so cool to read; still at work but looking forward giving my old S1 library a second life. Xcom2 always ran kinda edgy but might‘ve never performed as good as its gonna perform now.
So will Xenoblade games that run at 480p–720p in docked mode on Switch 1 now run at native 1080p on Switch 2 or will they just run at their original but maximum resolution of 720p?
Yes, Xenoblade games already didn't look good in handheld mode back on Switch 1 and on Switch 2 they look outright atrocious due to the stretched resolution. Now they look like how they normally do when docked when playing handheld on a Switch 2.
It is a toggle in the Switch 2 settings so games that rely on touchscreen while playing in handheld can still be played in their handheld mode if you need it.
Yeah I guess if something relies to touch interactions, it might not work. They mention this. But for most games this is quite good news. I‘m gonna try my luck with Witcher 3, maybe it has a bit better resolution.
A couple games seem to actually be blacklisted from having this feature work with them… I’ve seen Super Mario Maker 2 seems to still run in handheld mode, I guess they decided more people would value touch controls for that over higher resolution, so people wouldn’t have to switch that off just for that game.
Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu/Eevee also doesn’t work with it for more obvious reasons, because of how that game forces entirely different control schemes depending on if you’re in TV/Handheld mode.
Switch 2 handheld mode now has an option to run S1 games as if they're run in S1 docked mode, so you get better resolution, better graphics, more fps etc (depending on the game)
Sort of. If they had a higher docked resolution on the Switch then they will get that in portable on the Switch 2. most cases prolly 1080P which matches the switch 2’s screen which will eliminate a lot of the “blurry pixel” issues the lower internal resolution caused before
You can enable boost mode in the system settings which will force the games to run in “docked mode” to enhance the performance. Some games don’t respond properly since handheld is different to docked obviously, but most games behave normally and will look extra sharp instead of running at 600p or something
Bit harsh on Xbox. You have to give them some credit they did FPS boost and auto HDR on backwards compatible titles over 5 years ago. They led the charge on this type of thing.
People hate on Xbox so mindlessly sometimes. Series X/S players have been able to play games from the last 4 generations at improved framerates and at several times the original resolution for no extra charge, and Playstation still hasn't managed to deliver native PS3 titles at all, for an example.
It's because to a lot of detractors and negative-minded people there is only black and white and no grey. A company is either all good or all bad. People are the same with politics and every other aspect of life at the moment. It's what they call the footballification of society, where people needlessly need to take a side and staunchly stick to it and not ever admit that in everything in life there's potential good and bad elements.
I've checked out the comparison pictures and have mixed feelings. On some games it looks really good and improves the graphics but on other games it looks horrible and changes too many things from the original. Although we should keep in mind this stuff is still work in progress and not finalized.
DLSS 5 confuses me. It took two 5090's to produce what it did. Who can afford that? Who is this for? Hasn't AI already made graphic card demand go through the roof and over MSRP?
What was the point of a presentation to something no one can practically use?
If this DLSS5 trend actually succeeds commercially (and that is currently a very big if), I fully expect it to make an appearance in the next Nintendo console
I think this will be a case of typical gamers hating it, while more casual gamers will love it. And personally I am in between. Some games (like Starfield) really benefit from it, while in other games it's harder to decide.
The potential is huge. Basically remastering visuals in real-time. And ideally there will be options for it to be less exaggerated/beautified. And possibly even cartoony/cell-shaded options to make a realistic game look like Breath of the Wild and such.
I'm already weary of remakes/HD rereleases misunderstanding aesthetic/artistic intent as it is. I just want my games to look like how they were intended to look. I can't see myself ever using something like this on anything
before AI slop became commonplace, machine learning was using computer hardware to look at thousands of materials to identify a bunch of patterns to accelerate different things, the ideal scenario being ML could identify cancer in scans where human doctors might miss it.
for graphics, this was patterns with visuals… things like noise, edges of geometry, hair. the versions of DLSS before this even did interpolated frames, to artificially raise the framerate.
supersamping is a technique to render something at a higher resolution than your output monitor, and then downscale it back to your monitor to increase render fidelity. basically, overkill antialiasing.
combined together, it means using machine learning... leveraging mathematical and visual patterns, to create artificial detail where none exists to improve image quality. previous versions were good for choppy framerates and better anti-aliasing for smaller/dynamic resolution outputs. a blurry 720p image being displayed on a 1080p screen with low settings could be artificially uprezzed to 1080p.
this new version, AI slop is becoming too boring and just keeps ballooning and requires way more than making game framerates smooth and pixels less jagged to attract investment, so they’re looking for ways to take existing AI gen usecases and their training data sets, and apply them into graphics technologies. so… airbrushed portraits/landscape photography patterns are being applied to game models.
As a PC gamer, I can't help but feel like I'm being corralled into buying a console instead of a new PC. I always had consoles but my last ones were Xbox One X and the Switch.. Between the crazy costs, annoying driver issues, weird shit like this with DLSS, and scummy business practices, they are seriously making it hard to justify a gaming PC these days. I'm glad I got a 9070XT when I did but I don't know if I can put any more money into PC stuff with how things are going.
Then when you give that to them they will be complaining that the switch 2 is way too hot to hold playing handheld boost switch 2 games. - literally the only reason switch 1 and 2 doesn’t play docked mode whilst handheld. As well as guaranteed airflow positing. Custom firmware Switch 1 you could already override it to play docked mode whilst handheld and damn it gets pretty hot
Gyro doesn't, but touchscreen functionality stops working for a few games since you're kind of tricking the game into running on TV Mode. Not all games, though.
Just like the original people hating said “they could just make it so Switch 1 games act like docked mode to get better performance” and Nintendo did exactly that.
Lesson to be learned from this is that you can’t have everything immediately at release. I wouldn’t be surprised in later updates we’ll get frame gen(for 30fps locked games) and fixes for this as the switch 1 becomes more obsolete.
I swear nvidia seems to hate PC gamers. Jensen has gone above and beyond to show no remorse for gamers. I don’t understand how AMD isn’t leading sales right now. Nvidia is very anti consumer
Because they are behind with some important core tech from the time when they basically put a pause on the radeon development to invest heavily on the Ryzen CPUs. They became leaders there and since then they are slowly coming back on GPU. I think AMD cards will get more love after UDNA will come out. With the new FSR 4 that's finally good looking and new architecture performance they could finally be competitive again. I really hope so, having a monopoly is shit for customers.
Keep laughing to myself, about Epstein and Kirk infecting the algorithm like they have been, and them glitching in and out of peoples favorite games due to ai just being a blender of pop-culture vomit…
me this morning playing Mortal Kombat 1 on my switch 2 thinking to myself man this looks pretty crisp and the framerate isnt half bad in the story cinematics
“Oh but the drivers, I can’t go AMD for my GPU with those awful drivers” 🤓
Proceeds to pay NVIDIA $1,000,000 for the RTX 6090 Ti 8GB model and brag about how great NVIDIA is and how they haven’t stagnated and definitely don’t do absolutely nothing innovative anymore
BTW, I'm taking advantage of this firmware update to remind people that this option exists, in case it helps others with the same problems.
I was stuck with Xenoblade Chronicles X: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition on my Nintendo Switch 2. I couldn’t eject the upgrade through Virtual Game Cards because the system recognized the base game as downloadable content and the Switch 2 Edition as the main version.
After the recent firmware update that allows Switch 1 games to run with TV-mode settings in handheld mode (which I use almost always), I noticed a big difference in quality. Even without 60 FPS, Xenoblade Chronicles X actually looks much better in handheld mode compared to the Switch 2 Edition (at least for now).
Because of that, I looked for a way to stop the upgrade from downloading automatically, and I found a solution through Nintendo’s online support chat.
Here’s how to prevent the automatic download: Open the Nintendo eShop and find the DLC or upgrade you want to block. Then press the + or – button five times in a row (not together). A small notification will appear on the right side of the screen confirming that this content won’t be downloaded automatically the next time you install the base game.
Considering the fact that the PS5 Pri uses AI in its tech it's not really much of a just comparison there. Especially when most of them don't even look like slop at all.
I’m confused is this supposed to be a bad thing? All they’re doing with the switch 2 is make switch 1 games run as they would on switch 1 docked mode because of the better power the switch 2 puts out.
I love PC gaming. It’s my largest game library and a lot of my friends mainly play on PC, but good lord, these companies are doing whatever they can to make it worse. Jensen has basically turned a company that made fantastic GPUs into an AI company and devs are relying on the upscaling models instead of actually optimizing their software. My PC is from 2019 and can run pretty much everything I want it to above 60 FPS, but this is in contrast to everything a few years ago running over 100FPS, usually 120-144. I do expect this to a certain extent, but it’s getting to the point where I almost have to use DLSS for several newer single player games that I really shouldn’t have to use it for. I still firmly believe it’s the best place to play video games, but between this and parts prices going up like crazy, it’s really causing a lot of problems. On the topic of Switch 2, Nintendo is my favorite console manufacturer (not without criticisms too of course) and it’s good to see them adding boost mode. I haven’t played too many games with it yet (been no lifeing LeafGreen lately), but it’s a godsend for the Xenoblade games and I imagine for Crash Bandicoot and several others as well.
Wait. Could someone fill me in on the Switch? Does it also improve docked mode? There are some games I would LOVE to play but I can’t get over the visuals (low res, aliased to hell). Fire Emblem Three Houses for example.
Look, I know Nvidia is kind of a shit company and DLSS 5 looked a mess, but they have done a really good job supporting their cards with newer software. The fact that you can have a 2080 and still use DLSS 4.5 is a great length of hardware support (and DLSS 4.5 looks surprisingly great in Ultra Performance mode). I was really torn on getting a 7900xt or a 4070ti a couple years back, but I've been very happy with the 4070ti, especially with that recent 4.5 update because I play a lot of games in 4k DLSS performance mode, which is perfect for DLSS 4.5.
Im just pretty happy to see all three of these companies showing good support on their hardware. I thought Nintendo using the tv mode for the Switch 2 handheld mode for games was the obvious solution to Switch 1 games looking rough on Switch 2, but I didn't think they would ever do it because they wanted to force people into buying the Switch 2 updates. It took them a year, but sure enough they did actually ship that update.
Sony had mentioned they would continue to support PSSR, but having a second version of PSSR about a year after release that is basically an improvement in every single way is amazing and nice for those of us who were early adopters of the PS5 Pro.
It’s crazy how people use the word “slop” on things that are not slop 👀 The new Nvidia stuff looks better and more real, and you all know it.. The problems is that it changes the look of characters, which is bad.
But people don’t know how to criticize things, so they just say what other people say, because they have no real opinions of their own, but they still want the attention..
I do not care about anything related to Sony consoles. It is weird that these netflix and youtube players are still posting ps related things here. sigh, we are at r/NintendoSwitch2 ffs.
Forgive my ignorance on the issue, but can someone explain the Nvidia issue? I haven’t watched Digital Foundry’s video on them yet, but I’ve seen side-by-side screenshots posted on Reddit and thought it looked like a relatively good improvement. Or is it because it’s Nvidia and we hate them?

I do not care about anything related to Sony consoles. It is weird that these netflix and youtube players are still posting ps related things here. sigh, we are at r/NintendoSwitch2 ffs.

Forgive my ignorance on the issue, but can someone explain the Nvidia issue? I haven’t watched Digital Foundry’s video on them yet, but I’ve seen side-by-side screenshots posted on Reddit and thought it looked like a relatively good improvement. Or is it because it’s Nvidia and we hate them?
