XIV on Switch and Xbox

[Kosmos992k]

I'd hate to break it to you, but the Switch and the PS3 have the exact same Memory Bandwidth at 25.6 Gbps despite the Switch having more memory. It's not just about how much memory you have, but also the speeds that memory is running.

Pound for pound, the Switch might pull ahead of a PS3 a bit, but is by no means comparable to PS4 or Xbox One let alone the Pro or a PC. We're dropping a bad system for the game, no sense in picking up another bad system for the game.

there's an incredibly practical demonstration of the fact that Switch is on par with PS3 and 360. Fifa 18 is releasing, and the switch version is the same as that on PS3 and 360, the PS4/Xbox One version uses a different engine (Frostbite) and has more content and features. Unfortunately this demonstrates what many are suggesting, that Switch is in effect the WiiU that should have been, and is of that generation in performance terms.
