Can Switch 2’s Graphics Compete With PS5? | Punching Up, Episode 11

While we're only getting small crumbs of rumors and leaks about the successor to the Switch, there's always just enough to get our minds going on the possibilities. It's rumored that the device will feature cross-gen games with the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series X, and even the new Far Cry could be a launch title. Our biggest question is, what are the compromises, and will they be as significant as the current Switch cross-gen games? Outside of that, it's been relatively quiet on the Nintendo front, so we got into your questions! What are the decisions Nintendo has made that bug us the most? Are we interested in clone devices like the Analogue Pocket, or are we original hardware enthusiasts? Did Dustin's youth group take it too far when he was growing up? Please enjoy! 0:00:00 - Intro 0:12:15 - Dustin’s thoughts on Nintendo Direct 0:37:54 - Can the next Switch measure up to the PS5 and Series X? 1:06:35 - Quickies 1:14:57 - Dagan’s Segment: Nintendo Truth or Dare 1:23:19 - What have we been playing? 1:47:20 - What do we dislike most about Nintendo’s decisions? 1:56:09 - What was a Nintendo franchise we missed that we love now?

If it’s even as powerful as the series s, then Nintendo will be king next generation as well

I just want 1080p60fps. Maybe they can upscale it to 4K for people who really care, but I hope Nintendo doesn't chase power too much. Keep the costs low and focus on impressing people through design.

Oh, I know the Honey If You Love Me game, Dustin. It was outrageous.

sacrificing too much on power means little to no 3rd party support not sure that's a good idea

Donkey Kong 94 is somewhat a hidden gem, but it’s also these days frequently regarded as one of the best games on the Game Boy, period (and I’ve seen it too such lists more than once). It’s also the precursor to Mario vs Donkey, and it’s one of the few DMG games that had a full color version you could play when plugged into a Super Game Boy.

Donkey Kong 94 is considered one of game boys best games. It’s pretty interesting you haven’t heard of it before.

I don't personally need stunning graphics to the extent of Red Dead Redemption II or Horizon Forbidden West, I think part of Nintendo's charm is the style they use in their games such as TOTK, Odyssey, etc, I like them. I just want their games to run at a solid 60fps, I think that would be much more beneficial to players.

re: switch 2, switch is to this day my only interaction ever playing through both doom (2016) and wolfenstein 2. and i don't even take advantage of portability. but i just wanted to how some support for both devs/pubs on the platform so there's several big games where the only place i've played them is the 360p30 machine :)
