I hate the Resi games on Switch. Framerate is all over the place. Instead of a locked 30 they are ~20 to 60 fps. I hate that.
B-but capgods
The game is also bigger than on PS4, same for RE6. For some reason.

Yeah, just go on the store page (like https://www.nintendo.fr/Jeux/Jeux-a-telecharger-sur-Nintendo-Switch/Resident-Evil-5-1575781.html ) and you get a "download demo" button above the purchase one on the right. Should be the same for every NOE website at least, no idea for the US ones, different layout.
You can replace "Switch" by any other platform (hell, you should if you're talking about first party games only), not sure what's your point there.

That performance is fucking awful. I was down to get this but not in that form.
Capcom RE ports have all been shit besides Revelations 1 and 2. The game is dropping to 22fps during the first major combat sequence. Literally no excuse.

I tried both demos and was convinced to pass on both of them. 5 feels consistently bad, 6 is all over the place. Sometimes it felt good, but never when it mattered. Running at a good framerate in a hallway doesn't count for much when it shits the bed as combat starts. Having just finished up playthrough of 4 and 5 on an X, the feeling was immediately noticeable and had a significant impact on my ability to aim.
After being happy with the Revelations ports, I'm really bummed out by these. I would love to have all of these games on the go, but I can't support these low-effort ports (especially at the $30 price point).

I'm not surprised considering the fact that this game didn't run at a locked 60 fps on X1X and PS4 Pro.
It would be nice if Capcom gave players an option to cap the frame rate at 30fps.

These ports feel bad playing and felt sick of after playing. Even if capped at 30fps. you get still get performance drops in the 20s.
RE5's performance does look rough but not entirely surprising given just about every other HD release of the game.
I'm glad RE4 Switch turned out a lot better, hitches and all.
