Best new features on Switch 2, evaluated
Nintendo Switch 2 and Blend of Family and Novelty; Here are some of the most important new features and upgrades of the system.
Technical director Black Shamrock Eoin O'Grady has recently signed up with WCCFTY to discuss various aspects of the latest Nintendo consoles, including its overall hardware skills. As for the Switch 2 compared to the Xbox S series, the veteran of the Industry said its GPU performance was “slightly below” of the Microsoft console, noting that it is clearly weaker on the CPU side. The Switch 2 can balance at least part of the GPU performance difference by supporting technologies such as DLSS, which series S not.
Many games Xbox Series S should carry well to Nintendo Switch 2
Given the state of things and since most modern games are tied to the GPU rather than having a narrow CPU profile, O'Grady believes that switch 2 should be able to trigger a significant part of the current and future S -series. Regarding multiple graphically intense titles, anything that can hit 30 frames per second in the S series and is not tied to CPUs, it should also be relatively simple to bring to the latest Nintendo console.
Any shipping of the game at 60 frames per second on the S series should easily submit a switch 2 … The game of a series of 30 frames series of 30 frames that is tied to the GPU should also hand well.
Of resistance on specific graphic technologies supported by Switch 2, O'Grady predicted hardware -accelerated rays of beams, can generate some traction on the console, even if it Yes come up with restrictions. The most visible implementation areas he identified are shadows and reflections, with Black Shamrock's official noted that switch 2 has sufficient power to promote them over the beam that watched the rays in “reasonable” images and distinctions.
While the Switch 2 seems powerful enough to support the ports of many modern games, it remains unclear whether it will lead to an increase in third -party titles in the near future. A key factor limiting such a result is access to Switch 2 development kits, which only a few selected companies received before the console at the beginning of June 2025. As a result, many Switch 2 ports have only recently begun.
