I want to see how it’s bad. I don’t care about social media complaining.

If Nintendo is issuing refunds, then its really bad. Even a free update that ruins a game could be a reason to refund, but this one even asks money.

Remember how much Nintendo fought and gaslit everyone about JoyCon Drift to avoid paying/fixing/refunding customers?
They aren’t fighting this time.

I honestly hadn’t noticed it. I think the switch 2 upgrade probably didn’t deserve to be 5 bucks, but, the improved framerate is appreciable in any case. That was the part I wanted the most, and it works.
Except you definitely have to activate the “slow” camera option with it. It’s still pretty fast, but the default “average”, which means instant max speed is crazy with the update. I suppose previously camera speed was limited by framerate.

It only affects handheld mode, but there is shimmering and upscaling artifacts. In docked mode it’s fine.
It’s not really worth AUD$8/US$5 though, it’s only a resolution and framerate upgrade (60fps mode already existed but was masked out, it’s been available on emulators using the official code since last year) and it’s still only SDR. Mario Odyssey had a free upgrade which added 4k/60 AND HDR.
