Ultimately, making Final Fantasy VIII Remastered "better" on Switch comes down to balancing the nostalgia of the PS1 era with modern convenience. The remastered character models for Squall, Rinoa, and Seifer look crisp, and with the right updates, the technical hiccups of the port become a thing of the past. Whether you are playing the official eShop release or managing your library via NSPs, staying current with the latest version is the only way to ensure the Draw system and Junction mechanics feel as fluid as intended.
