Switch 2 mouse mode (such potential)
-
Sure but the switch is 10 year old hardware. You know what else was released at that time? The iPhone 6s....do you currently use an iPhone 6s?
yes lol. I also have a 4070ti though

The Switch 2 footage of Elden Ring did look better than what I can get out of my Steam Deck. I wouldn't be surprised if it has a performance advantage (perhaps thanks to native DLSS and frame generation) for the next year or two.
I suggest you check out Decky FrameGen.
The technicals are ... very complex, but the upshot is: It basically injects FrameScaling/FrameGen modes into games that don't officially support them on AMD hardware.
So... I've done this with CP2077, and if I understand this right, basically it injects FSR3, but under the DLSS settings under the game's options menu... and it works better than the game's current officially supported FSR 2 for the Deck.
Elden Ring may also be able to benefit from it.

I can't wait for it to be a thing that only a small handful of actually good 3rd party titles use that feature and the rest are gonna be 1st party titles shoehorning it in to say "Look at our fancy new feature we swear nobody has ever done before! Trust me!".
Just like the camera!

Yeah I think Lemmy often forgets that kids exist and are the target audience for Nintendo games. I say good for them, it might be hella expensive but at least Nintendo appears to be providing a "safe" place for kids to use the internet. There's really nothing for kids anymore these days other than getting an eating disorder on tiktok.
We got the nieces and nephews 3DSes, my brother sideloaded some emulators on them and it has been the best

It’s not just 12 year old kids either; this is how most people in the console market make their decisions. They prioritize the availability of games on the console over the hardware’s specifications and operating system.
Yup. I want to play Prime 4 and DK Bananza at some point. I don't need to play them day 1, but I'll want to play them eventually. And I'll want to play the inevitable Pikmin 5 and Smash Bros 6.

With the official reveal of the mouse mode for the Switch 2's controllers there is the potential for so many classic games to flood the console.
Imagine what it could do with graphical adventure games, RTS games, management sims, etc.
We already know CIV VII will use the mouse, and I just hope this is just the beginning for a whole range of traditionally non-console games to finally make it to the platform.
RIP floors and tables.

I'm pretty excited for this feature honestly, I know a lot of games won't use it but still it's gonna be fun.
