Hi, I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but I bought a Switch Lite and I was surprised to notice that the image quality seemed a little jagged at the edges, "crunchy". Seeing some other people play on the switch lite on youtube, theirs seemed generally smoother so I don't know if mine has an issue or something? Im providing a few screenshots below (open the images at full res, they look cronchy like this on the console too)







Thanks in advance!

It could be a matter of the format screenshots are saved in - jpeg is known for compression
But it could also just be the fact the Switch Lite outputs to 720p only, since the screen is that resolution.

Two factors the compression as mentioned above and also that lack of anti aliasing. For some reason Scarlet and Violet and Legends Arceus don't use any AA leading to lots of jaggies. It's worse for the latter because it tends to render below 720p and due to the more 'realistic' texture artstyle compared to Legends Arceus.
