Episode notes
The speaker discusses the challenges faced while buying Nintendo Switch consoles, mentioning the difficulty to obtain the Switch OLED and contrasting it with the ease of buying the original Switch. Console sales are highlighted to be particularly chaotic in the first months after release, especially close to holidays. The conversation shifts to frame rates, focusing on the assumption that most games run at 30 frames per second on the Switch due to its 720p resolution. It is mentioned that Nintendo games prioritize fun over high graphics quality with many games running at 30 frames per second, although Splatoon runs at 60 frames per second. The discussion delves into the importance of frame rates in competitive games like Super Smash Bros and Melee, where players require precise timing. The speakers contemplate the impact of higher frame rates on gameplay, with the consensus that it can aid in clearer gameplay but may disrupt timing in certain scenarios. Lastly, anticipation is expressed for the upcoming Nintendo Switch console, with speculation about potential features and excitement for its release.
