Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Achieve 60FPS on Nintendo Switch 2

Hey, so I just stumbled across this thing—yeah, it’s a bit all over the place, but stick with me. Anyway, this Nintendo Today! app? Total game-changer. Like, imagine finally getting a glimpse of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet on the Switch 2. Why that caught my attention, I don’t know, but there it is.

Oh, and get this: there’s this software update deal that’s supposed to give the frame rate a nice little kick, making everything smoother. You know, the kind of smooth where you almost forget you’re playing on a console? Not that I ever forget—mostly because my dog inevitably pulls the plug. Visuals are getting a makeover too. Apparently, it looks slick on the Switch 2 and even the fancy high-res TVs. Not that I own one, but a friend down the street does. Sometimes I just want to watch things in his living room, but yeah, awkward.

Okay, back to the games! They’re hitting this sweet spot with 60 frames per second. What even is a frame rate, you ask? No clue, but flowing like butter, and that’s all I needed to know. It’s like they finally listened to everyone who shouted, “Make it better!” Who knew it could be done?

26.79 million copies sold—like, wow. But people were all, “It’s great, but why’s it glitching?” I mean, who doesn’t love their game to look like it was drawn by a distracted toddler? But Nintendo’s fixing that, it seems.

Oh, and mark your calendars, folks! The Switch 2 is dropping worldwide on June 5, 2025. Not sure why I remember the date—I hardly remember my own appointments. Prices? They tossed around numbers like £395.99 in the UK, €469.99 in Europe, and $449.99 in the U.S. Honestly, it’s like they just rolled dice and went with it. Who sets these prices, anyway? But hey, the world moves on.

I could keep rambling, but I’m sure you’ve got better things to do. Or maybe not, but whatever. Just thought you should know.
