Almost certainly this means the successor.
It would be a lot of work to put FF14 on the current Switch and its about to be replaced soon

How is it about to be replaced soon?

They haven’t announced or even mentioned working on a new FF online game and have expressed they’re still committing to XIV for the foreseeable future.

Yeah, but I wouldn't mind having Switch 2 asap :) Zelda would look even better with DLSS.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't Switch games have to be programmed with DLSS in mind for it to work with them? I'd prefer to be wrong and have a newer technology automatically enhance older game code without needing any developer intervention, but that's usually not how things work.

Of course, but devs can do it relatively fast. Switch 2 games will use DLSS a lot.

I thought we were talking about Switch 1 games on S2 being auto-enhanced with backwards compatibility, my bad.

No, obviously that would require additional work by every dev.
