Practical Breakdown

| Topic | What to do | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Frame target | Use a stable target before chasing maximum visuals. | Narrative games feel better when timing is consistent. |
| Battery | Lower brightness and cap performance if the device runs hot. | Licensed music and cutscenes are better when the session lasts. |
| Controls | Check controller prompts before the first minigame. | Short timing scenes punish layout confusion. |
| Text | Verify subtitle size and contrast in handheld mode. | Small UI problems become big on a portable screen. |
