There's the ever so slight problem of it completely killing the portability. Don't want this setting a precedent. Would much rather a downgraded port like Doom than a game I'd struggle to stream on even my home internet, let alone the kind of wi if you get elsewhere.
Japanese players and reports say input lag is unnoticeable and nearly non-existent. But of course this will depend on your connection and the like. I recall two ResetEra users in non-official capacity, one said no input lag and one said they had input lag, so about what one might expect with such a set-up. I also take it there's good reason this isn't a worldwide thing and Japan only.
Lol seriously, if your ping is anything above 20ms this is probably atrocious
Run the game on a distant super PC, but your inputs go over the internet. Problem is you need good broadband and very good latency.
The game isn't even being served to 90% of the world, this whole thing is Japanese exclusive due to Japan (and Korea) being leaps and bounds ahead in this was than a lot of the world.
It totally goes against the unique selling point of Switch though.
They're streaming a streamed version of RE7 ?
Why? Have you ever used PS Now? Streaming games without a noticeable difference from a local version is nothing new.
They're just transmitting inputs to the server and an image back to the switch. So the visual fidelity should be the same as if it were running on a PC (since it is running on a PC). Lag will depend on your connection.
Not really. A Switch game that can't be played while travelling is useless. Without portability, one might as well just play any other version.
This thing isn't just dependant on your routers connection. How you connect to the switch , your surroundings,how good its wifi receptors are on the switch, what is the quality of servers and how far they are from your place all factor into the lag you experience.
I use 5G to connect my Switch in Mississauga Canada. This game would work for me then?
I'd imagine (not sure) that Netflix can stream sequences of images (i.e. a buffer), unlike games though.
Exactly. People dont get it.
