  • But I think it’s better for it to fail from expected behavior vs unexpected behavior. Your storage being full is very transparent and expected, but that a file reaches max size and starts cutting off is unexpected and would surprise a lot of people.

    I myself use supercomputers and the log files can get into a lot of GB, and I would hate it if it just cut off at some point.







  • From what people have gathered, the CPU calls from Switch 1 games are converted to Switch 2 calls, and the GPU calls are emulated. Shaders are probably de- and recompiled for the new GPU.

    What people forget is that GPUs are generally not binary compatible between generations, even from the same brand. That’s why PCs usually take time compiling shaders. On consoles, the games distribute the compiled shaders for the console, which means it won’t work on other GPUs without emulation.

    I’m not an expert on game development, so please correct me if I misunderstood something.
