The Switch is ARM (nvidia tegra x1) while the Deck is x86 (amd zen2?). There's translation involved. Not saying that will guarantee a slowdown, but as @FireWire400 said, if the emulator is shit power won't help much. My oc'ed ryzen 5600x could barely run switch BOTW at 15fps when it first released (though that was arguably still better than the experience I had on my Wii U... shudder)

PMed

edit: hint - try 'firmware' instead of BIOS in a search

Hell would have been too much like a vacation spot for him. Had to send him to the good place to properly torment him for eternity.

They added sources through the article, including a youtube interview between two Microsoft execs, so I'd say its a least plausible.

Oh my bad I thought we were talking about the entire Ars team, not the individual author.

"malpractice" would have been not puling the story/issuing a retraction.

Journalistic integrity? On my internet? Well I never.

I honestly can't tell what's satire with him anymore so forgive me if this was a joke, but I saw a quote where he said he takes like 3,000mg of tylenol daily, against his doctor's advice, to keep his blood thin because "who would want thick blood?"

Nearly 7 feet tall? JFC. Send that kid on a USO tour so the troops can check out the freak.

That happens already, unfortunately.

I've heard that Zapp was meant to be a spoof of William Shatner/Kirk but he really shares so many unfortunate characteristics with Trump. He even has the crappy taste! "Leela, it's real velour!"
