Handheld Players

After playing The Rogue Prince of Persia on Nintendo Switch 1, I decided to buy it again on Nintendo Switch 2 — and wow, the difference is huge.

On Switch 1, the game targets 30 fps, but it rarely feels like a stable 30. On Switch 2, it’s a completely different experience with a smooth, consistent 60 fps. The game is still challenging, but on Switch 2 you genuinely feel in control.

On Switch 1, the controls feel sluggish, almost as if the game is controlling you rather than the other way around.

After spending time with the Switch 2 version, I have to say that the Switch 1 version, in its current state, is extremely difficult to play properly. The unstable frame rate makes the game much harder than intended, and I would strongly recommend avoiding the Switch 1 version for now.

If you have a Switch 2, get the game there - it’s a fun and demanding experience when it runs as it should. Hopefully the developer will release a patch to improve performance on Switch 1.
