Nintendo Switch will receive a major firmware update that should eliminate all performance issues in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

The new Nintendo console, the Nintendo Switch has reached the market a week ago and at the moment it is not bad at all in sales, despite the fact that it is a fairly innovative console system and apparently, somewhat limited in benefits. This console has the characteristic of being portable and hybrid, since it can be used for games as if it were a tablet or as a desktop console when we install it in its dock Station. The console, limited in content, is not 100% operational, as it has some firmware problems.

When a new product comes out it is normal for it to have some firmware problems. The Nintendo Switch has quite a significant problem in the GPU, since it is not able to correctly handle the data output. This causes a significant drop in performance, thus causing the full potential of the NVIDIA GPU to not be exploited. The problem affects one of the most important games that have already come out with this console, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, when the console is inserted in the dock Station.

The Zelda would not work well at resolutions higher than 720p, while the Fast RMX, another of the console games, works at 720p in handheld mode without problems and in the dock it works at resolutions of 900p and 1080p, depending on the circumstances. The firmware update should allow the Zelda problems to be fixed and the Fast RMX game to work at 1080p @ 60FPS resolutions without major problems.

There is no date when the update will arrive, but it is good news for those who have chosen to purchase this console. The truth is that the improvement in image quality and performance is an important factor and who knows what improvements Nintendo can implement in future updates to improve and optimize the experience.
