![]() But Nintendo is as tight-lipped as Apple when it comes to discussing new hardware, so all I have is rumor and speculation to go off here. The rumors so far point towards the Switch 2 coming at the end of the year, which would still make it ripe for Tears of the Kingdom, or early 2024. But a 4K resolution could smooth over that and really let the art and graphics pop, especially on on of the best OLED TVs. While the art style of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom looks great even at 720p, in motion you’ll notice some graphical artifacts and aliasing in the former. ![]() A more powerful Switch with backwards compatibility as standard, could be the device to play Tears of the Kingdom on, with the extra power bulldozing over any slowdown. So I feel we’re due a Switch upgrade, especially as 4K TVs are now widely used and the Switch is limited to a 1080p output. Though it’s still the little console that could, the Steam Deck and upcoming Asus Ally show how much performance can be put into a portable machine. While developers are likely to have enough experience working with the console to squeeze out every drop of performance from familiar hardware, there comes a point where the limits are reached.Īnd I feel this is, or soon will be, the case with the Switch. The Nintendo Switch is six years old, which in console years is pretty venerable. ![]() ![]() The kicker will be how much power the building elements to Tears of the Kingdom take up I’d not be surprised if making complex construction could result in some slowdown.Įven if Tears of the Kingdom runs fine, I still see it as both a sign that we need a Switch 2, and a swansong for the current Switch. Given Tears of the Kingdom looks set to be visually similar to Breath of the Wild, I suspect it’ll have the same performance - both the good and the bad. ![]()
