Resident Evil Switch 2 Ports Hold Up In Tokyo Game Show Demos
The remaining question for Capcom's Switch 2 line is not whether the ports run but how they look on the handheld's own screen, and the TGS demo answers that the display holds up.

Hands-on time with Tokyo Game Show demos of the Switch 2 ports of Resident Evil 2 Deluxe Edition, Resident Evil 3, and Resident Evil 4 Gold Edition found the games looking clear on the system's 7.9-inch 1080p screen, with no motion blur and no input lag on the Joy-Con 2. Colors read slightly muted on both the handheld screen and a connected full-size LCD, though that holds on both displays.
The demos ran at Tokyo Game Show 2026 on the Switch 2's built-in 7.9-inch LCD, which supports 1080p and a maximum 120 Hz refresh rate. Visuals stayed smooth with no motion blur, and the Joy-Con 2 showed little to no lag between a command and the character acting on it.
Color saturation looked slightly muted on the handheld. The same muted look held on a full-size LCD in the play area, so the tint appears to be the games' presentation rather than the screen. The main adjustment is the Joy-Con 2 layout: its buttons sit closer together than the PS5 or Xbox Series X/S controllers.
