About this video

We simulated Oblivion Remastered's Switch 2 performance before launch — then ran real frame-by-frame analysis on the actual game. The results surprised us. Full breakdown of visuals, frame pacing, and the control scheme that changed how I play.

In this video: real vs. simulated Switch 2 comparisons (lighting, water, foliage, shadows), a full custom Python frame analysis across three gameplay sessions (85% stable 30fps, hitch and stutter breakdown), PC comparison footage, and why Joy-Con mouse controls might be the best way to play Oblivion Remastered on Switch 2.
