Surprised this hasn't been posted, it's already been a few days.
The latest Switch 2 update adds handheld boost mode. Basically Switch 1 games will be forced into docked mode on the Switch 2 handheld mode. It's a toggle so games that have issues can be turned off. Too bad it's a system wide setting rather than per game. https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a...
I tried a few games and they look so much better running at a higher resolution. It's not as good as the free patches that unlock framerate and increase resolution but it's better than nothing, especially 3rd party games that will never be updated for Switch 2.
I remember ages ago hearing one of the guys on the DF Podcast saying how nice it'd be if you could do this. My inner voice was saying 'I bet that never happens'. Well, I was thankfully wrong!
It's a great feature for the many games which won't ever get an update. Fingers crossed we do get more of those though (and not the way Xenoblade Chronicles X did it!).
