Final Fantasy 7 Remake dev on challenges of developing for Nintendo Switch 2’s handheld mode
Posted on 3 days ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Naoki Hamaguchi, director of Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade, has spoken about what it’s been like working with Nintendo Switch 2 and the challenges of developing games for the system while accounting for handheld mode.
Just like Nintendo’s previous system, teams have a bit more power to work with when the system is docked. In portable mode, things need to be scaled back a bit – and there’s also the factory of battery life to account for. Hamaguchi said Square Enix (and other developers) need to think about “how you can get a version in handheld mode that doesn’t look inferior and stands up to the home console versions on other platforms.”

Posted on 4 days ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Nintendo has provided a brief comment on third-party Switch 2 docks, stating that the company has no intention of blocking them.
Earlier this week, version 21.0.0 was released for the system. While it brought some interesting elements to the table, it also apparently broke a few things as well. We already reported that Pokemon Brilliant Diamond / Shining Pearl are having issues, but some third-party docks don’t seem to be functioning now as well.
