TL;DW: Switch 1 games that struggled with framerate now run much better on Switch 2 via backwards compatibility. Batman Arkham Knight ran at an abysmal ~20FPS on the original Switch, but now runs at a stable 30.

A console in 2025 “runs at a stable 30” fps and that’s good news? Of course this is slightly faster than a mobile chip from 10 years ago, but that’s an incredibly low bar to set.
We know it’s faster, but allegedly Switch 1 games run through a compatibility layer so there was some worry it wouldn’t boost performance on old titles. The video confirms it does.
