Comment on Switch performs better running games through an emulator emulating the switch than natively.

The switch natively can tune the performance, which you might notice going from docked to handheld mode and seeing the quality dip.

The emulated setup is probably bypassing some of this, which would likely have a “safety” zone it never leaves to make sure the performance is always smooth, and it’s likely pretty conservative.

The Quest 3 does the same thing and using some tools, you can adjust the hidden visual settings of a game to make it look better or run faster at the cost of some more heat and battery usage. Natively, it really holds back what it will allow the software to do with the hardware.
