Nintendo has launched limited game streaming trials with the Nintendo Switch in Japan however these have tended to be prohibitively expensive and were never offered outside of Japan. That is all changing with the launch of Control Ultimate Edition from Remedy Entertainment which is only available as a cloud version. The game is streamed from Ubitus servers to the Nintendo Switch at 30 FPS with the choice of a graphical or performance mode.

The graphical mode features limited raytracing enabled by the server GPUs which would not be possible with the local hardware. used by Ubitus, Control Ultimate Edition - Cloud Version is now available via the Nintendo eShop for players in North America, Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, and parts of Europe. The game is offered as a free download to test connection requirements but to play you will require a 39.99 USD Access Pass.

Wonder, when those hoops become mountains. This is weird.

Ooo, hard-core pass on this. Why the hell would anyone play it this way? Daft as a brush this.

Imagine if they just allowed people to use Geforce Now on Switch instead and gave Nintendo a percentage of a cut of the revenue for every user that uses a Switch to connect. That would be a lot better for everyone than every game that comes out for the next gen getting "cloud versions."
