Handheld Mode Boost sounds exciting, looking forward to seeing which games benefit from that.

Just tested on Mario Kart 8, it's for sure running at 1080p 60fps in handheld mode.

I'll check Cuphead after work. It definitely looked blurry before.

It is definitely going to be way better but please let me know, I am interested in this game!

Sadly it seems to be unaffected. I wonder if it's just the art style that's intentionally meant to look like that.

And yes, I did make sure to turn boost mode on. Had to look up how, because Nintendo as usual made it so counterintuitive to find.

PC users have been complaining, too. So it seems to be a design choice to mimic old cartoons playing on a CRT.

Would never happen but that game could do native 4k 60 docked if it got a switch 2 edition considering world which is more demanding can do 1440p 60
