I noticed there’s now a Batman Arkham Knight port on Switch. As you might expect, like a lot of other AAA ports, it doesn’t run so well. Seems there’s demand for these games on there, indicating a lot of players only end up with one console. Even if Nintendo can work with their low-power devices, I get the impression third party developers will generally need more to get Unreal Engine going smooth.
It's the Arkham trilogy. I have read some reviews that two of the games play ok-ish. The one is a total shit show. The problem with the Switch is that Nintendo has been milking this one nicely and the hardware is overdue for a refresh. I salute the devs that make power hungry games work on the Switch. The Switch is my only console, but as a handheld fan, the next one may be something else but I will hold out to see what Nintendo comes out with first.
