Pokemon Scarlet Violet performance

With the release of the version 1.1.0 for Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet, it seems that Game Freak may have improved performance.

Many who have tried out the Switch games have been pleased with the actual game experience. However, performance has definitely been a sore spot. Putting aside actual graphical quality, frame rate dips and stutters were present throughout. However, as mentioned above, it looks like performance has started to see an improvement.

Weather Forecast and Father Pucchi (Final) will be available in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle R starting December 1, 2022. On the same day, a new stage will be added.
