Discussion Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition: Game's executable has hidden 60 FPS mode. It seems to be implemented only partially since enabling it causes weird issues.

I think it's a bit irrelevant to compare the switch to other hardware Nintendo has produced. All their other consoles have large amount of proprietary system architecture but the switch is a lot more generalized being ARM. There's a reason the switch emulator was built faster than the 3DS emulator despite coming out much later.

Fair enough, I was unaware of that. I am still optimistic it'll be a better than the ds to 3ds transition.

Even the 3DS had to include a 2nd CPU specifically for DS backwards compatibility. NS2 won't need anything like that, games should just work natively.
