I played Pokémon Scarlet and Violet on Switch 2, here's how they run

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet might have some of the more interesting world and game design of the series, but the games are remembered for only one thing. That's bad performance, as the Nintendo Switch version of these games is the only version that was available prior to the Switch 2 launch, and ran like trash. That's not unnecessary hyperbole, as the games were incredibly buggy and ran at an abysmal frame rate. While the bugs were able to be fixed on the Nintendo Switch, the frame rate and bad resolutions were not.
