PC or Switch version?

[Nishi Kinuyo]

Anyone think the performance/graphics of the switch version will be any decent?
Or would the PC version be better? (I don't have a controller, btw.)

The switch version will turn your rgs to hgs literally.

I mean if PC port is hardlocked to 60 fps and switch can also run at 60 fps, then I see your point.
But if it's like DXM where PC version can run at twice the framerate, which is imperative for real time games, then why bother with inferior version?
Maybe I just don't get the whole "portability" thing, but then again steam deck exists and it's more powerful than switch.

For me it's not about portability, but it's the knowledge that I know It'll still be there for me when time goes by.
Nintendo has been somewhat decent when it comes to the conversation of owning your games and not having a temporary license Though I will say not perfect.

Recently i've become extremely skeptical about the idea of making PC game purchases due to the ongoing conversation of whether or not you own the game or you're given a license to play the game and it can be taken away from you by a whim of the company.

My stance on the whole "Physical vs Digital" thing comes down to the price and accessibility.

Full price games on average push me much harder towards physical copies of things, deep sales on the other hand tend to push me more towards digital (and it's no longer a time when you can easily/reliably find cheap copies of older physical games on sale unless they're complete ass quality games unfortunately).

Some things also just never have a physical version in the first place these days sadly, but that's just caused me to be very selective in what I purchase (like Armored Core 6, which I'd rather have for the PC I already have than a physical copy for the consoles I don't).

I mean this is a PC forum, do you really think anyone here would say "oh yeah, go for the version that runs on last last gen handheld hardware!"?

More like two generations back; they were lagging behind in specs even for its own generation. Not that this means a lot outside multi-platform releases, since games made specifically for the Switch can run amazingly and still look stunning.

For example Pikmin 4, holy crap that game looks gorgeous imo, especially for something running on UE4 rather than an in-house hyper-specific-to-hardware Nintendo engine.

pc then play on steam deck

Steam deck has bad ♥♥♥♥♥♥ battery life tho. It can only run games that are not nes-ps1 emulator for an hour and a half at most while Switch can run games for 5 hours. It also consumes a lot of power from the power bank while the switch requires much less power than deck

not saying that the switch is better than deck, because the switch is so damn old now, but if you want to portability, the switch is still better.

deck is amazing for emulator portable tho (about 5 hours for nes-ps1) but you can also run these game on phone nowaday (it can even run some of switch games 😂)

btw player base on switch is better because Japanese people like to play games on switch more than PC and they keep the game alive . they love and obsessedgundam and anime stuff than western
