In today’s Nintendo Treehouse live event, the team unveiled some exciting news: GameCube games are making their way to the Nintendo Switch Online service on Switch 2. While navigating through the options menu, keen-eyed viewers noticed an intriguing addition—an optional CRT filter. This is particularly noteworthy because, up until now, the only other 3D console available on Nintendo’s service, the Nintendo 64, hasn’t included a CRT filter option.
What’s fascinating is the potential impact of this filter on the game’s visuals. We’re left to wonder whether the filter will adapt to the new 900p resolution or if it will adjust the visuals to mimic the original CRT output more authentically. This revelation also raises the question: Will Nintendo 64 games eventually get the same CRT filter treatment on NSO? It’s definitely something fans will be keeping an eye on.
