DLSS (or FSR/XeSS for that matter) isn't a magic bullet. I'd say the "Quality" setting (67 % per axis) is acceptable for some games if the output resolution is at least 2560x1440 (so it renders at like 1715x960), but even then it's very noticeable if you ask me. At even lower internal resolutions, it's getting a lot worse quickly.
It's a nice way to get games running that wouldn't otherwise run with an acceptable frame rate, but not much more.
It also got brought up again in the latest DF weekly. A recent rumor states thst the switch 2 soc won't have the dedicated tensor/ML cores, so DLSS performance would take a further hit.

Not a single bit of "switch 2" news has been corroborated. It's all rumors.

Yeah, it looks like junk. I have never seen it look good in any game.

Didn't Digital Foundry do a video on this a bit ago? They pretty much said it would only be about as good as the PS4.

Nintendo's cheaping out on their customers again. Imagine having modern looking Nintendo games again?

PS4 on a handheld sounds awesome

It's going to be PS4 at varying lower resolutions. It could have looked a lot better.
