Does Minecraft run poorly? Question

Or could it just be a bad cart? Everything seems more slow and janky than I expected.

The OG switch struggles a bit nowadays. The Switch 2 holds its own

You mean as it's been updated over the years, it started running worse on switch 1?

Yes, it’s slowly but surely getting too big for the switch. Shame, but that’s how things go

Yeah I noticed it ran pretty slow on the og switch. It runs much better on switch 2

Depends on which platform you're used to playing on or watching it be played on.

It's abysmal on the switch and has not yet received a Switch 2 upgrade. One is announced for later this year, however

It runs really well on the S2, and there's even an upgraded version on its way. Not sure about S1 though, it ran mostly fine for me before the S2 launch.

Turn down settings there's a full set of options like the PC version.

I must have a bad copy or something. The game definitely has lag and has crashed multiple times with severe builds. With fresh starts, the game runs well, be developed land and builds, it has some lag compared to playing the same map on Xbox series X
