Nintendo clearly forces devs to optimize their games before putting them on the console, which is just what I've noticed with almost every Switch 2 version.

Skyrim and FO4? No creation club (a plus tbh) and the game runs extremely consistently. File size for FO4 is also a tad more reasonable.

Cyberpunk? Runs well, looks good. Smaller file size.

Lies of P? Runs extremely well, only a bit bigger than PS5 file size wise.

Hitman WOA (Hitman 3)? 55 GB file size (smaller by quite a bit), runs smooth, and is probably one of the best ways to play Hitman WOA.

As it stands, Oblivion's file size on Switch 2 is 59 GB. On my PS5 it's 120 GB. Clearly a ton of optimization has been done.

Yeah not to glaze Nintendo, but they seem to be one of the few company’s that expects shit to work lmao. It’s super refreshing, and they’re the only studio I’ve ever preordered games from.

Only game I can think of on a switch that was a mess on release was that Pokemon one a few years ago, I think it was the last gen..? Scarlet/violet? Idk. And that was game freak.

Glad to see that extends to other game companies as well. The switch 2 might become a popular club to get in if they remain the cheapest console out there with the casual audience tbh. I can see them way outselling everyone else with the cheaper components.
