Digital Foundry put up another video analyzing Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s performance on Switch and Wii U today. For this new one, the team was stress-testing the GPU. The analysis shows that the game does have frame rate dips on Switch here and there, but they appear to be less frequent and not as severe when compared to Wii U.
You can watch the full video below. Note that one of the game’s villages is shown, if you’re looking to avoid all spoilers.

With Dragon Quest Heroes I+II having shipped in Japan, Digital Foundry is taking a look at the second game by comparing it to the PlayStation 4 and PS Vita versions.
Dragon Quest Heroes on Switch comes somewhat close to the PS4 edition. However, the Switch version struggles significantly on Nintendo’s platform. The frame rate takes a dip while you’re in battles, and the performance seems to be dragged down even further when playing in portable mode.
Digital Foundry’s full analysis is in the video below.
