Underneath every Nintendo "gimmick" there is some new way of using something different than the status quo.

I can't really find any games that have used RTX, Ray Tracing other than reflective glass or water.

Even it's older brother, SSR, or Screenspace Reflections, has been only used as intended.

And Ray Tracing Audio is another under utilized mechanic that could have a game built around it.

do you know of any games that use reflective surfaces as a game mechanic?

Yes they will show the whole world how is done in 2050 when they launch the switch 6

TotK Remaster with new RT elements. If Nintendo can manage physics like no one else, they’ll find a way.

Ray Tracing? On Nintendo hardware?
Keep dreaming. Maybe switch 2 will hit N64 level power.

Doesn't count.

It's not a Nintendo game.

OP question is not exclusive to Nintendo.

Ray tracing is just another way to do reflections, lighting and sound... and all of those have been used as gameplay mechanics numerous times already. By even Nintendo themselves.

Maybe if Nintendo makes you trace those rays yourself. Now, that would be revolutionary as far as gameplay goes.

Never seen it.

On the next Splatoon, you will be able to use the ink reflection to see who around the corner.
