Curious to see performance reports. If Echoes of Wisdom is finally stable I'll pick it up.

The real question is if third parties will do anything to fix up some of their games. The titles I'd most like to play on Switch 2 already have shoddy Switch 1 ports, and I fear the titles that will get ported to Switch 2 will again mostly be above its weight class.

Echoes of wisdom was great on the Switch too, definitely worth picking up regardless. ❤️

Edit: oh you mean pick up the 2. I get it.

I held off on Echoes because I've seen some pretty bad reports about its performance issues.

It's weird game in the performance aspect because it would probably feel very stable if they had locked it at 30FPS.

However they aim at 60FPS and the system can't keep up, leading to some very grating framerate oscillation.

Ah. Well it's a fun experience despite the frame rate issues, just like Link's Awakening was.
