Alright guys we have a really exciting update for you today about tiers of the Kingdom. There's actually some other news floating out there. We're going to probably tackle that a bit later today. I'm going to kind of let things simmer and get more information but we actually do have information on this and that is because look the game leaked right we're not talking about the leaks themselves but one thing that has come out of the leaks when people play this on their Switch is that there is some performance issues right and when there's performance issues that are also backed up by the actual gameplay demo that the media played a couple weeks ago it makes you wonder is this something that's going to potentially bog the game down potentially be a problem and is it something that would be addressed before the game comes out and it turns out that Nintendo has been paying attention the Zelda team already knew and yes indeed they have provided a day one patch. Now this day one patch is quite interesting for a number of reasons and one of them being that one if you have the digital version it's already included you already have it. Two well the physical copies don't come with the day one patch which is about 300 megabytes and you might go what the heck is in that 300 megabytes well it turns out a feature that improves performance and visuals is there. What are we talking about fidelity FX super resolution yes folks that technology Nintendo is already used in other games such as Nintendo Switch sports is added with this patch and my lord apparently it makes a big difference why because people were able to extract that update from the digital version via a data mine and apply it to the physical and it turns out yep makes a world of difference no surprise because it does make a difference in other cases as well now the big thing about this version of fidelity FX super resolution is it does appear through the data mine to just be the 1.0 version which is technically like the worst version of FSR besides back when it used to be in the demo stages but also happens to be like the only version of FSR supported on switch it's the same version they used in other games that actually ended up making a difference the big key thing here that we want to get out of fidelity FX super resolution is better frame rate stability that's the big thing we want and we can get this here so just a reminder on what fidelity FX super resolution really does it may lets you run a game at a lower resolution but then be able to upscale it and what happens here when you run at a lower resolution you're able to gain performance so you can get better at frame rates while maybe not suffering a lot of loss in the image department so that's really what fidelity FX super resolution does and while 1.0 again isn't like the greatest you know fix ever it is better than nothing and early reports are including from some people with review copies that it has made a difference because now the review copies are getting that update because they didn't have that update originally a couple weeks ago and now it's been released to them too so the bottom line is this is a massive deal and should fix a lot of the performance complaints that people had about this game before launch and this is another reason that those of us waiting for launch may in fact have gotten a better experience than those that have been emulating or pirating the game over the last week or so because again you're not potentially using the final version of what the launch is going to be you're using whatever version was available at the time they started printing cartridges so i'm just going to sit here and wonder what else is nintendo going to do because well this is the update at the moment who says they're not all the way up the version 1.2.0 by the time the game comes out because maybe they have an additional update they're going to be doing and guys if you didn't think they were going to continue to update this game to make it run better make it look prettier you clearly weren't paying attention nintendo did this back in the day with breath of the wild we had numerous updates to help in performance and look this one update seems to already fix the 30 fps drop into 20 fps problems so i'm already pretty stoked about what this means this is not a technology they ever applied to breath of the wilds if you want to be like oh well breath of the wild they didn't use this in breath of the wild literally this is something they've only been using the last couple of years and it's really exciting to see them continue to use it obviously this is a technology if not this one maybe nvidia dlss or some sort of internal technology will likely be used on their next system as well so nintendo is paying attention to these technologies and that alone is exciting because nintendo doesn't always stay on top of what the latest and greatest tech is in the industry and this is just one of so make you nintendo for dropping this update obviously for those of us that we're going to play day one especially digitally we already were going to have this update so it already was going to be a bit better and those that bought it physically day one hey the patch is available to download day one you'll be able to update your game and you'll be able to enjoy it as well so i'm just really excited about this that seems to be the brux by the way of what's in update one point one that's a 300 megabyte update to include fidelity fx super resolution that's a baby again it's a pretty decent chunk size for just one feature but it's an important feature and one that i'm really glad nintendo is working on now i don't know what they're going to include in other future updates you know besides obviously some tweaks here and there maybe some bug fixes because you know there are some bugs i have heard about from the leaked copy although the problem is that these bugs are not running like the way the game normally would like one bug i heard about apparently specifically only happens in emulation and it's like well then we don't really care about the bugs in emulation because any nintendo's problem right we care about what it's like running on switch and from there i haven't heard a whole lot i've talked to a few people that have verified review copies and just just on the surface it does appear that this game is relatively bug-free and that shouldn't be a surprise but i mean we've had glitches and bugs and priors all the games there was the canon room and twilight princess right uh we've had falling through the world glitches before uh and just various other things and i'm sure there will be some form of glitches we had glitches and uh in breath of the wild remember whistle sprinting that was the thing a lot of people like to do whistle sprinting in in breath of the wild well that's not in this game so so a lot of the breath of the wild stuff was probably patched out but who knows what new glitches and stuff they introduced i'm not someone who cares about glitches but you know there's a lot of speed runners in particular any percent speed runners that love love those glitches so guys i'm really excited for this game i think you are too i hope you're having a good weekend today we're celebrating mother's day in my house why because hey i'm gonna be playing tears of the kingdom and streaming it for you guys next mother's day so uh kind of a weird weekend for them to drop the game on right it's mother's day weekend but hey my entire family agreed to move it for me that is crazy i've never gotten my entire family to agree on anything for me and yet here they go oh you're working oh you're gonna be playing tears of the kingdom on live stream yeah we can move it thanks guys it only comes out once every six years apparently all right guys thank you so much for being here and i'll catch you in the next video
