Nintendo warns of compromises: the feature increases power consumption, which reduces battery life. The effect also depends on the specific game — not all projects receive a noticeable increase.
The tests checked dozens of titles, including Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Astral Chain, NieR Automata, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Bayonetta 3, DOOM Eternal, and others. In many cases, there is a noticeable improvement: the image has become cleaner, some artifacts have disappeared, and stability has increased.
Players have positively assessed the innovation — Nintendo has noticeably improved old games on the new console.
