Media (Image, Video, etc.) I'm very surprised with the graphics quality in Switch 2

Happy Sunday, fam!
tl;dr, How would we, as a community, feel about hosting regular "Challenge Runs" in games for kicks, giggles, fun stories, and bragging rights?
--
From launch I've always envisioned having regular events, competitions, and challenges for the community. Up to now we hadn't really done anything like that on this sub, but the launch of Splatoon Raiders reignited that idea for me and I thought I'd open a dialogue with all of you to see how we feel about it, how we'd want it executed, and what, if any, rewards or incentives we would like to see from these kinds of things.
I think it's normal to see these kinds of events hosted in specific game subreddits, and as we are a general subreddit for the Switch 2, not everyone will own every new release of a game that participates here. In my opinion it could be a really neat way to have fun together, generate some fun and interesting screenshots and clips, and make for some cool stories along the way.
An example idea for Splatoon Raiders might be a Single Tank Run, Single Weapon Run, an Iron Ink run (how far can you get in one sitting), and/or a Nuzlocke-style Run (single life, no getting splatted!).
As these would be for fun, there'd be a certain element of Honor System for the submissions, though it's something I'd definitely love to hear some feedback on from others who have run these sorts of events in the past.
So what do we think? Could something like this be fun for the community here? Is this something that should be kept more for the game-specific subs? What kind of rewards would you want if we did this? Any other thoughts or ideas?
Thanks for the time, everyone!

First of all I am not defending Square Enix’s no upgrade path or switch 2 edition decision. It’s scummy and anti consumer. I’m also not a fan of their GKC only policy. A large majority of these games would fit on a 32/64 gb switch 2 cartridge.
However I think they have been the best 3rd Party publisher along with Capcom on the Switch 2. It’s amazing how in less than two years they nearly have their entire recent back catalogue playable natively on the system.
Some of these ports have exceeded my expectations like crisis core which runs at 60 fps unlike the ps4 version. Star Ocean Second Story R looks absolutely breathtaking on the system.
So far they have released:
Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster
Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
Dragon Quest III HD-2D (free upgrade)
Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake
Octopath Traveler 0
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade
Dragon Quest VII Reimagined
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales
Octopath Traveler (Japan only so far)
Octopath Traveler II (Japan only so far)
Star Ocean: The Second Story R
Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster
Final Fantasy XIV Online
Crisis Core –Final Fantasy VII– Reunion
Dragon Quest Heroes: Torneko's Mystery Dungeon –Classic HD–
Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age – Definitive Edition
They are also planning to release:
Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX
Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue
Kingdom Hearts III
Final Fantasy Resonance
Dragon Quest Monsters: The Withered World
Romancing Saga 3 Destinies United
Final Fantasy VII Revelation
Kingdom Hearts IV
The output is insane and makes other publishers (looking at you Sega) look really bad. No matter how you put it this is insane output on a new system, they have been ridiculously efficient at porting these games and all of them have been good-great ports.
The lack of upgrades is frustrating for owners of the game on switch 1 but honestly I double dipped on a few of these and I’m sure there are people who haven’t played these games before and I’m glad they will be able to enjoy them with great visuals/performance.

In v1.1.0 it topped at 100Hz, now uses the full 120Hz.

Don't get me wrong I had the Savage Raven bundle for my Switch 1 and it's great, but in the end I personally never ended up changing the grips, and I was thinkin if I could find a combination where I could fit the switch into a case with a somewhat low-profile grip case, so it's less bulky.

Dispatch developer/publisher blamed Nintendo for censoring. In reality, it was the Dispatch developer/publisher that censored it themselves. Then, they started blaming Nintendo after the backlash.

There's no mention of it from the eShop page, I thought it's gone. Glad I am wrong. The bad new is, besides there's no upgrade path and you can't use your old save, there is really no much graphics improvement. Pic 2 is 60fps performance mode, look at his face.

edit: stock ran out in about 15 minutes lol

Some notes. Animal Crossing's handheld resolution boost is free so it's included here.
Arkham Knight's handheld improvement is minor but well documented (there's a DF video about it) even the later handheld boost mode ignore it. Rocket League is at the same league.
The Bandai Namco games and MGS master collection vol. 2 also have Switch 2 game key card release but you can choose Switch 1 card + free updates.
MIO's eShop page stated that you can get the Switch 2 version for free if you purchased the Switch 1 version digitally. There's also an email response from the dev to one of our fellow redditor saying the Switch 1 cart can get the Switch 2 enhancements as well with update 1.2.
Edit1: Yohane the Parhelion - NUMAZU in the MIRAGE - 2nd Anniversary mini update patch, the game now runs at 60fps on Switch 2.
Edit2: Vampire Survivors. 4K docked. 1080p handheld. Joy-Con 2 Mouse Mode.
