Is the Nintendo Switch 2 actually the 'Switch Pro' you've always dreamed of for your existing Switch 1 library, right out of the box?

Nintendo might have greatly undersold the backwards compatibility of the system, but our extensive testing reveals something truly remarkable. Many original Switch games, even those without receiving any sort of official update by its developer, are now running at a locked 60 frames per second. Forget the disappointing performance or absolutely god awful experiences you might remember; these titles are now playing far better, often with sharper pictures, higher resolutions, and drastically cut down loading times.

We’ll explore how games like Bayonetta 3 and Disgaea 6 go from struggling to offering a massive improvement. Hear how Saints Row III and Red Faction Guerilla, once plagued by inconsistent frame rates and visual compromises, are now transformed into a buttery smooth experience. Prepare to be pleasantly surprised and in some cases shocked at how well these games are running, often playing as they truly were intended on the new hardware.

Join us to discover why the Switch 2 is the unofficial 'Pro' for your Switch 1 library, delivering significant upgrades that you simply have to hear to believe. Tune in now!
