- N64 games emulated via Nintendo Switch Online on the Switch 2 will have significant upgrades.
- These include a new CRT filter, button remapping, and the ability to rewind.
- All of these have been available on standalone emulators for years.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is just one month away from hitting shelves, but the new hardware will have upgrades beyond expensive first-party games like Mario Kart World. The Nintendo 64 Classics app included as part of Nintendo Switch Online, which emulates a collection of N64 games, is getting some highly anticipated new features.
Those new features include a CRT filter for a more authentic retro look. For older games that were designed for CRT displays, this can make a huge impact in reducing perceived blurriness. The upgrade also adds button mapping for each individual game, partially offsetting the terrible control schemes the console is known for.
