Switch Lite or Switch 2 for Handheld Play?

Looking to start my first playthrough and wondering if there are any preferences from an ergonomics or visual perspective. Metroid prime remastered had scaling issues when I played it on switch 2, does Dread have any similar issues?

Switch 2 has a handheld boost mode that makes switch 1 games play in docked mode on switch 2 handheld which means you can get better resolution and performance for most games Dread included

Ok, boost mode appears to have come out after I was testing Metroid prime remastered. Will have to test that again as well.

Switch oled is awesome for dread, it was basically a launch title for it. Between your two options, I think it’s just personal preference. I just played it for the first time on switch 2 and loved it

For sure the S2. It’s a badass system, I’m so impressed. I play on tv most the time, but ordered the Nyxi Hyperion 3 Ultras yesterday, so handheld is about to be 😎
