Having an AMD or nVidia or even Intel GPU/APU at this point "suggests AI image upscaling tech"

Especially in the case of an underpowered mobile adjacent device.

What's the point... It's a bespoke device with bespoke software. Render at native...

Yes, but this is the same Nintendo that just successfully patented riding mounts in japan...

So Obviously Nintendo invented AI upscaling and no one else has ever used it or even thought of it.

4k 30fps allegedly.

This is with DLSS.

nope. There better be a 1440p 60 fps compromise in there somewhere

I was gonna say the screen is too small to be worth 4k but then I remembered my friend's son playing his Switch with his face against the screen lol

It will be 4k 30 fps docked potentially. I don't think handheld mode will be this

Oh whoops I misread

2160p is 4k

DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 1y

My bad I meant 1440

SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

It will probably need to run DLSS ultra performance mode to do 1440p@60fps. So that image will look like shit since it would upscale from a 480p base resolution.

Never forget Yuzu

Still runs great though

DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 1y

Yep. Even better if you can build the TOR version.

There are tons of reasons to hate on Nintendo, they've got a history of abandoning games and attacking emulators as well as game preservation.

Tears of the Kingdom and Xenoblade Chronicles 3 at 60fps. That’s all I ask.

Thanks, I hate it.

!I'm saving it to be a menace in friends' Discord!<

What I'm hearing is that Sonic and Mario are going to sometimes render with a full set of five fingers (since AI often randomly adds extra fingers)...
