I am planning to buy a Switch for my seven year old daughter. Are there enough great games to play for a kid? I doubt I'll ever game on it, so it's only for her. My primary purpose is to stop her playing BS tablet games Mad
As I understand there is no way to easily hack the newer console. Is this correct?

For the new ones, there is no firmware hack but there are modchip solutions for both models if you want to go down that route.

Anyone see the Nintendo Direct?
40 minutes of my life wasted.
Never played Skyward Sword and not sure why but that’s an instabuy on Switch
Stubbs the Zombie was a surprise and that game was great on OG Xbox.
Ninja Gaiden makes me feel old lol.
Everything else was disappointing to me.


May the NFOrce be with you always.

I didn't watch it, but if Stubbs and Skyward Sword were apart of it, that's excellent news Very Happy

Stubbs got me excited.
2 months ago I was letting a friend experience the trailer. They got excited and I was like it'd be dope if they remade it. It was a blast to play and a kick ass soundtrack.

I'm happy. Will deffo pirate it.

The current firmware contains code for an unreleased revision. It does not contain any new profiles for CPU/GPU frequencies however. The rest is speculation.

4K Switch with bigger screen this year? Very Happy
Surely 4K will be docked only and 1080p undocked?

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-03-04/nintendo-plans-switch-model-with-bigger-samsung-oled-display

Quote:
Nintendo Co. plans to unveil a model of its Switch gaming console equipped with a bigger Samsung OLED display this year, hoping the larger touchscreen can prop up demand in time for the holidays, people familiar with the plan said.

Samsung Display Co. will start mass production of 7-inch, 720p-resolution OLED panels as early as June with an initial monthly target of just under a million units, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing internal matters. The displays are slated for shipment to assemblers around July, the people said. Representatives for Nintendo and Samsung Display declined to comment.

The new display’s resolution mirrors the current Switch and Switch Lite but is an upgrade from the Switch’s 6.2-inch and Lite’s 5.5-inch size. If the console’s housing remains unchanged, the new Switch is likely to sport a thinner bezel.

720p undocked is still an upgrade over the 480p in most games Laughing
Finally a console with DLSS.

Excited to see how DLSS will work with Nintendo's art style, should provide a very clean image.

Nvidia is looking for engineers to work on Orin SOCs for "consoles", which means Ampere GPU and A78 CPU cores. Very intersting prospect:

DLSS is an excellent thing, but I don't like the idea that games might eventually need it because developers can't be arsed optimising their games properly. It should be the sugar on top, not a crutch they can fall back on to.


Agreed, but mostly for the fact that DLSS does not look good all the time.

Digital Foundry says it drops to the horrors of 540p resolution a lot of the time! I mean, even with the 'but you can play on the toilet' excuse, Nintendo get away with murder with how the mainstream media cover the switch Very Happy

apparently runs on some Switch Emu for Windows; albeit like shit so far but seeing as how they managed to optimize BOTW back then here is hoping we'll get to play MH: Rise before the 2022 PC launch

some random youtube ""evidence""

But why would you want to play it at 540p on a pc?!

@gibman70
Because the device delivers instant gratification for casual gamers.
