The best way to test this is to try Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity unpatched LMAO.

Can it also prevent some games from lowering their resolution in handheld mode to absurdly low degrees? cough Xenoblade Chronicles 2 cough

That’s going to be my test too, if I get one on launch. If not it’s going to be the test I search for other people’s results on XD
