(New) 3DS and a look at how Nintendo might handle future performance upgrades



I was watching some old Nintendo trailers yesterday and came across this interesting bit on the New 3DS trailer where Nintendo boasts the newer model's “Faster Processing Power" while comparing the loading times of Super Smash Bros.

Even though there's the distinction of the New 3DS being a mid-gen upgrade whereas the NS2 will be a next-gen console, Nintendo's communication has been very strong on promoting the NS2 as a continuation of the NS1 in terms of software compatibility (with details to be revealed at a later date)

Considering a lot of NS1 first-party titles are already programmed to use dynamic resolution and fps, the beefier hardware of NS2 might result in instant visual upgrades for NS1 titles (without the need of patches).

And with the rumored DLSS upscaling capability of the NS2, we might even be talking about 4K visuals on the impressive existing library of NS1 games.

The perspectives are looking great. What are yc v expectations in terms of performance upgrades:
