Switch 2 serves as a substantial upgrade over earlier models, although its power does not match that of the Xbox Series X or PS5. Despite this, most players may find it capable of running current third-party games effectively. Recent insights from Kazuya Takahashi, director of Donkey Kong Bananza, revealed that technical constraints can impact performance, particularly during graphically intense sequences. Yet, he emphasized that fun and playability are prioritized. Overall, Bananza showcases the Switch 2's capabilities, indicating Nintendo's strategic timing in console release relative to game development.
First, we've intentionally used effects like hit stop and slow motion to emphasize the impact. On the other hand, by using voxel technology, there are moments where the scenery undergoes big changes and destruction.
We're aware that in these moments, the performance might be impacted a bit. Regardless, as you say, in general the gameplay is fluid.
Whenever the game produces changes at a great scale, we've prioritized fun and playability.
Bananza looks great running on the Switch 2, and the destruction gameplay is a technically impressive showcase that makes it obvious why Nintendo might have waited for the release of the new console.
