Another problem cropping up was analog sensitivity. While latency still isn\u2019t where some would like to be, the first issue has now been addressed.<\/p>\n<p>This comes thanks to the latest app update, version 1.6.0. The patch went live with Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness joining the service last night.<\/p>\n<p>Madao tested F-Zero GX on Nintendo Switch 2 with the latest update. We\u2019re now hearing that the stick range has been improved and is much closer to the original range on GameCube.<\/p>\n<p>You can check this out further in the following video:<\/p>\n<p>Control Stick Calibration and Input Lag Test<\/p>\n<p>This actually isn\u2019t the only improvement we\u2019re hearing about. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/did:plc:yxiitmraor6vordeoxbtiw5p\/post\/3mhdf3kvhbk26\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">LuigiBlood<\/a>, the GameCube app now has an updated CRT shader that uses HDR. Initial reports on that indicate that \u201cit feels a lot better and feels more coherent now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll hopefully continue to see more improvements to the GameCube app on Nintendo Switch 2 over time. We know that additional titles are planned for the future, including Super Mario Sunshine and Pokemon Colosseum.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Additional Nintendo Switch 2 news can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/nintendoeverything.com\/category\/platforms\/switch-2\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Related<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It took some time, but it looks like GameCube emulation has been improved on Nintendo Switch 2.
