Did you know there's a Nintendo Switch port of Cities Skylines? In this honest review I'll put the game to the test with a city of 100K inhabitants. Expect lots of gameplay footage, as well as my own experience and opinion on it. So, is it really as bad as some people claim? Enjoy the video :)

I love the detail that you used SimCity 4 music, maybe you can make a video of that game later. Great review, keep on making good content, I know your channel will blow up!

The CPU in the Switch is really ultimately its Achilles Heel (though the memory bandwidth/amount of RAM aren't doing it any favors either), particularly for games like this. It's also why so many Switch ports have unstable framerates.

The problem is that the cpu is too underclocked by Nintendo for good battery. In handheld it has 1.0 GHz and in Docked mode it goes t0 1.8 GHz without additional cooling. Because I have a modded switch this game runs great, I set it to 1.4 GHz instead of 1.0 and the game has a steady 30 fps (for my small city now at least).

the only reason it has 11K VIEWS is because of his Minecraft Legends video he got lucky with, he will never "blow up" again.

Props on the video, it is indeed amazing it runs at all on Switch. I was amazed when this got ported to Switch. I put in over 100 hours into it, owing to the convenience. It's too bad they couldn't keep patching it and adding expansions, but with Switch 2, I hope they do bring the sequel or a complete edition to that console.

instant thumbs up. I LOVE this, mainly because people over look switch edition of the game. But, it really isn't THAT bad. Sure, its not great, but its not bad. It feels like your playing it for the first time, pure and with less controls

I bought myself a switch OLED and the game went on special on my birthday. Had the switch for about 8 months before it went on special. It's regular $50CAD and it doesn't go on special often. For $50 it's way too expensive but I was happy I picked it up cheap. Even though it's very fun the frame drop is annoying and that's a big reason it's not worth $50.

It's a game in a niche genre, not a Minecraft video or makeup tutorial or somebody "unboxing" something so that's not surprising.

And how did you get 100,000 inhabitants? I can only reach 20,000 on Switch or 8,000 lately. I’m not dealing with the city I guess, maybe it’s due to the electrical connection or whatever. But I’d like Natural Disasters DLC at least. But I agree with you in all facts you said.

@lauraisanchez6797 7 ай бұрын

I used to have the same problem, I figured that the solution to this is just to keep your services up to date, once you have the water and electrical running smoothly, your city will naturally explode in population.

I think they should at least let you purchase mods, (especially the older less laggy ones) add a bit more maps and especially let you use buildings and maps outside of their designated themes for more playability

Yknow, its still not as bad as Cities VR on meta quest. That version looks and plays like hot garbage, whereas the switch version looks okay and plays okay.

@tommythicc2719 3 ай бұрын

I agree that the quest version runs terribly, I wish the Vr version was on pc so I could play at smoother frame rate
