Episode notes
Backward Compatibility Enhances Gameplay
- Switch 2 plays original Switch games with improved performance for many titles like Pokemon Violet and top-down Zelda games.
- This enhances gameplay by reducing distracting frame rate and visual issues, offering a smoother experience.
Workaround Blurry Handheld Games
- To avoid blurry visuals on Switch 1 games in handheld mode, use game chat's pixel-perfect 720p window as a workaround.
- Nintendo needs to fix this scaling issue so retro games display correctly on Switch 2's 1080p screen.
Joy-Con Upgrade Improves Multiplayer
- Reb Valentine shared how playing Mario Kart with the new Joy-Cons feels much better due to bigger, sturdier buttons compared to the tiny, awkward old Joy-Cons.
- This makes local multiplayer more comfortable and enjoyable even though Pro Controllers remain the ideal choice.
