I don't get it. How can Nintendo and Nvidia the two companies that are even worse to deal with than Apple have such a strong relationship with each other?

Nvidia's even giving them DLSS now. And Switch 2 will run UE5.

    because nvidia isn't AMD level retarded, they're playing nice with the whole industry,. software devs, everyone, and being adopted as the standard, AMD will probably be finished if nintendo really does release a proper competitive console for the first time since the fucking 90's AND it's running NVIDIA to boot
    god i fucking can't believe AMD could fumble things this badly. and i'm not even gonna buy that fucking slopconsole.

      if they didn't have a good product and a de-facto monopoly there wouldn't be a company left to work with them as they've burnt almost every bridge and relationship they've come across

          Apple : it's a shit company that decided to work on their own solution for maximizing profit and performance/price, and have everything under control too

          Sony : PS3 and RSX was too complex, costly to deal with, hence why they went with a computer like all in 1 solution with integrated graphics, and AMD was good at it

          Microsoft : profit and all in 1 solution of AMD was better priced

          Linus Torvalds : it happened years ago, and nobody use Linux for gaming anyway, who cares

          EVGA : Nvidia decided to do their own cooler design, EVGA couldnt fight this and dropped out of the race, also, last gen was a shitty gen for them with a lot of failure

          Sony and Microsoft dropped Nvidia just because Nvidia doesnt have a good all in 1 solution with integrated graphics like AMD or Intel does.

          If Intel were better at this, Sony and Microsoft would have taken Intel solution instead, that's all.

        Let's face it, games don't really need a horsepower beyond what's needed to play Skyrim/GTA V. That is, X360 capacity for 720p. Even Starfield demonstrates this, it's Morrowind at its core w/PS3 level graphics. If it worked back then, it will now, given enough time to optimize/not bloat up in the first place.

    Nintendo Switch is the only relevant gaming hardware, and the only company not run by troons and idiots. By the time the Switch is ended it will have outsold even the PS2. Makes perfect sense to support their inevitable next big hit device.

    How do they have a strong relationship? The original Switch was made on a dogshit 2 year old off the shelf SoC using a 3 year old architecture on a 5 year old process. It runs 5 year old AAA titles at 720p low and 30 fps on a good day.

    Nintendo and Nvidia have such a terrible relationship they're only now creating a product with an architecture that can use DLSS, a feature they've had for the last 5 years and should have been offered for the Switch 2019 OLED models.

      Sounds like the kind of thing Nintendo would purposefully request. They love ancient hardware

        Agreed, but why on Earth would they cripple the 2019 models when improving performance was what everyone requested?

        My main point was that they clearly have much less cooperation with Nvidia than Sony and Microsoft have with AMD as they're not using custom silicon and clearly have no involvement in R&D. If that wasn't the case then surely Nvidia could have produced a Turing SoC for the 2019 Switch with DLSS. That would have tremendously improved its fidelity in modern titles.

      This. Eurogamer came out and told people that Switch 2 was showed off behind closed doors.
      Within hours VGC then made an article claiming the Switch 2 is as powerful as the PS5 and will do 4k and now it's spreading.
      The only article that was factual was Eurogamer.

    Antitrust risks. If one company locked down all of the console market, they would lose more fighting the FTC than they would selling low-margin hardware. So, AMD doesn't even put a bid in and Qualcomm/MediaTek/Samsung just aren't there, yet.
