it's 2025 very impressive Nintendo found such a bad IPS Panel.

Gotta make some room for the switch 2 oled to improve on for another hundred bucks or so

“It’s a retro display to give gamers some of the feel of the original GameBoy!” nintendo marketing probably.

if I can't see the pixels fade on and off I don't want it

They're just trying to maintain compatibility with Game Boy flicker effects

Why are they still using IPS in 2025? You can get cheapo smartphones with high refresh rate OLED displays these days. It's not 2013 anymore when only top of the line android smartphones had portable OLED displays, the technology has matured to a great extent.

But but but this way in 18 months, they can release the Switch 2 OLED!

[–] MarmiteLover123@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

For $1000! With the only extra features being more internal storage and an OLED display that cost them $5 extra to manufacture.

Nintendo will never port their games outside of their own consoles because their console division would collapse.

Joke fucking company, not even in imperial core capitalism do your treats stay sweet and everyone who bought this shit is a sucker. You could have just gotten a Steam Deck OLED that would outlast even you.
