Can it run GTA 6 above 90 FPS?

I’m buying one. I could care less if it’s OLED. I’ll be gaming in the house. So brightness does not matter. The screen looks great from what I have seen.

I’m buying one too, it’s gonna be the first console I buy on my own and it looks to be a worthy investment!

Do you own any Oled products?
@bradleyswaney6100

@TheVoyagers. Several.

It’s not about brightness. Horror games for instance are a huge difference with Oled pitch dark levels. Spyro Remastered looked so much more vivid and pleasing on Oled. Can’t go back to LCD screens for those.

@ShadowMan64572 Very true. My blacks and such pop on my OLED screens. But I was very surprised by my the led on my tablet. Not as bright and as good but still enjoyable.

I hope this fails so bad for Nintendo. Greed destroyed their reputation. Those mental illness Nintendo fanboys will give them any amount of money just to say I bought the new Switch 2 and games. No problem paying $80 for a digital game you never will own. SMH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Japan will retaliate by charging US consumers a much higher price for the Switch 2.

The C button isn’t a Chat button, its a Credit Card button. Chat function is a paid extra after March 2026.

They lost me at $80-90$ games. Wait for the inevitable emulator. Then play the games for free with a VASTLY superior experience on a PC!

Switch 1 was a great for the Family. Switch 2 will wait for the family. $150 more for 1 system, that’s almost the cost of a Switch Lite.
