Big improvements to draw distance on Akiva in the new Star Wars Outlaws patch - looks much better now! Seems like the day 1 code was bugged. (Ignore image quality/performance as this is internally recorded footage.)

The title screen colors line up with the Joy Con 2 accents. Cute. #StarWarsOutlaws #NintendoSwitch2

Impressed but not "shocked" by Switch 2 tech: from casual victories like 120 FPS Silksong to stunning "miracles" like open-world RTGI + RT reflections in SW: Outlaws at ~10W. Fine folks in the Famiboards hardware thread called this for 2 years since the NVN2 leak. Time to give them their flowers.

Ubisoft RedLynx did a fantastic job leveraging the strengths of the T239 SoC. Raytracing on a 10W 1.4 cm thick portable - amazing. Curious if the game uses mesh shaders.

I've tested my entire Switch library on Switch 2 to see which unpatched games run at 1080p in NS2's handheld mode via BC: - ACA Neo Geo Galaxy Fight: Universal Warriors - Gal Guardians Demon Purge - Gravity Circuit - Gunvolt Chronicles Luminous Avenger iX [cont. in thread]

I have to shout out another one of the best indie games on Switch, just impeccable (and only $5). Hits all the right notes. Love it for embracing 'crunchy' sharp low-res graphics, like plugging in a retro 3D console into an upscaler, creating some of my favorite visuals in a low-poly title.

Made a Bluesky account just to shout out this game. Beat it today on Switch, one of the best indies on the platform - and I own a ton of them. If you love platformers this is a no-brainer.
