Funny thing how the company that is constantly being made fun of for weak hardware is prioritizing 60fps over its more powerful competitors.
Constantine it's all about priority. Consoles are weak by default. But for whatever reason, only Nintendo constantly gets shit.
Constantine damn right!
Constantine I'll always choose 60fps above all else. Kudos to nintendo
RANDY TYSON you also get a Damn right!
not all the games on switch run at 60fps, also the switches architecture and capabilities are gonna age extremely poorly over the next years to come so more and more games will struggle to even hit that 30fps mark never alone 60fps.
It doesn't drop one frame, I say. Not one.
Proceeds to drop literally one frame right when I say that.
*slams door*
*car driving away noise*
great video, but most of the comments are going to be about that one single droped frame lol
Whoever edited it got you good man lol
That's the thing...I edited it as I do for all of my videos and I didn't even notice it! Doh!
John Linneman This is the supreme level of "U dun goofed"
6:28 Flawless performance. Drops a frame again :D
Frames over graphics all the way!
Depends on the game. A fast paced game? Yea frames are more important.
A slow paced turn based game? Aesthetics over frames
Well, with PC you can get both.
Worthless Opinion fuk pc
+Red Pandai not unless it is unbearable.
G. And Astetics, music, gamplay, pretty much everything over frames
"This is Nintendo we're talking about" - I don't know how many times I've heard that phrase used when speaking negative about the company. This is a first where it's used for something positive.
Anyways, yes, Nintendo attempts to focus on 60fps. BotW is an exception, not simply because of scale, but because it's not a native Switch title. It's a port of the Wii U version, and one that was planned late with a Day-1 release on Switch. Patches continue to improve it, but at its core, it's still built as a Wii U game.
Breath of the Wild simply would not be able to run at 60 FPS on neither Wii U nor the Switch. If that kind of open world game was downgraded enough so that it'd hit 60, it wouldn't be much of a game anymore.
BotW still wouldn't hit 60fps either way. But yes, it will be more stable if it was built for the Switch.
it might have hit 1080-900p if it was built natively,but i have no proof to back that up
If BotW were built natively for the Switch, I could see it possibly being optimized to have a locked 30fps, with either 1080p or 900 like it is now. I don't think that 60fps would be possible without significant drops in visual quality though.
does nintendo focus on 60fps? well, maybe now they are, which is the right thing to do, but...
ocarina of time ran at 20fps
majora's mask ran at 18 fps
every 3D zelda after that ran at 30
mario sunshine ran at 30fps
mario galaxy 1 & 2 ran at 30fps
they only really started that on the wiiu. hope they stick to it though.
frame rate > resolution
Rodrigo Quevedoo nah
third party support>weak games
Mordecai R
nintendo games > third party games
60 fps > image quality
wwe 2k18, nba 2k18, elder scroll, fifa 18, nba playgrounds, snake pass, i am setsuna, minecraft rocket league with crossplay except SONY lots of indies, is this still no 3rd party??i think ur blind. if ur looking for fps games like PUBG, BF1, OW, LOL,DOta, Nier etc hec im pc master gtx 1080ti running 3840x1440 ultra wide 21:9 monitor, does ps4 run ultra wide pft.. switch and pc master race are best combination.
Image quality does matter
5:46 HA, IT DROPPED TO 59FPS TAKE THAT NINTENDO
xd
Gehab something tells me that this comment is edited ironically
KaleidoScape No way xD
5:40 DF: Splatoon 2 has yet to even drop one single frame. Not one, it's completely solid at all times.
5:45 Drops one frame.
You know what. I get it. the hardware of the switch is underpowered , but somehow this underpowered console already has more games running at 60fps than your common 3rd party and exclusive games on other consoles. Consoles by nature are underpowered. Sony and Microsoft need to learn they can't keep up with pcs and the best they can do is make the performance of a game efficient and running smoothly. Nintendo understood this a decade ago and now all their focus are games and make sure it's performance is high priority of theirs. I love gaming no matter the hardware and i want to see consoles to succeed so they don't keep losing relevance every freaking generation. Pc is great, but it never will bring the simplistic beauty of popping in a cartridge or plugging in 4 controllers all at once
And fantastic job df, you do a great service to gaming
Up you go! People in the comments try to downplay this by complainig about the Switch's graphics. They don't get that Nintendo is actually pushing the industry forward, regardless of their underpowered hardware. As a primary PC Player, I really welcome the trend of prioritizing framerate over visuals on the Switch. I hope this will eventually swap over to PlayStation/XBox, but sadly, 4K HDR next Gen Ultra graphix are easier to promote than decent performance.
You Get It👌💯
The number of Switch games that run at 60FPS in comparison to the Xbox One and PS4, even as far as ratio goes, is debatable. Nintendo just compensates for the 3rd party devs that can't hit a 60FPS target on the platform that can on other systems, like Darksiders Warmastered on the Wii U and Dragon Quest Heroes II on the PS4
yeah, it's underpowered for a console, but it is a insanely powerfull portable system
PC + Nintendo. For me, that's the best of both worlds. I don't care much about the exclusives on the other systems.
60fps over 4k anyday
ActivesiN games>30fps> 4k>60fps
wicked science You're an idiot.
Depends tbh. If it was 460p 60fps fuck that lol
I'll take third party support over this garbage anyday.
Sup Alex
Zelda was made on the Wii U and ported to the Switch. I kept trying to tell people this but a lot of people are hard headed.
Zelda would have looked better had it been built up from the ground on the Switch.
quantae06 yeah it looks crappy now
yeah,they could maybe make it run at 1080p.i use motion interpolation on my tv so it looks and feels like 60 fps.
props to you Nintendo for choosing framerate first. I don't think the Nintendo switch deserves the hate it gets from hardcore sony xbox and pc fans they're in a league of their own. they make sure gamers have a great experience while playing meaning smoother gameplay and then resolution congratulations Nintendo you delivered on the switch
i dont think pc guys hate switch, only xbox and ps owners
pc gamer here, yet love my switch. only "console" i saw worth getting. the others give me nothing that my pc cant do.
Reuben Hooper I'm a pro xbox gamer and I admit that hope you enjoy your switch and pc:D
Ziggieman Dah Killaa 666 thanks man 😊 will be 100x better once we get rainway on it and I can play any of my pc games on it. it's a great system to have when u can't be assed sitting at a desk or in front of a TV to play lol
Yeah I mainly use PC but I love my Switch. If I want the best graphics, I know where to go. But it gives me games I can't really get anywhere else, delivers them at smooth framerates for the most part (which is honestly the most important thing for me) and allows me to take them anywhere I want.
60FPS + near flawless Gyro aiming with split joycons = PC feelin
Nuke Killer look, a child... how do I know? he uploads Call of Duty videos xD
call his mom, he didn't do his homework!
what?
Nuke Killer for real, are you older than 10? I doubt it... or maybe it's just the glimmer of hope inside me that tells me someone older than 10 can't be this stupid...
Splatoon 2 IS 60fps, WATCH THE VIDEO
Nuke Killer this is amazing xD I can't even... you are like a parody of a stereotypical CoD kiddy
Although the Switch's hardware is underpowered, I won't deny that, the developers of Nintendo games are so talented that they always make an enjoyable experience even if they have to sacrifice graphics a little bit. I go to Nintendo for fun exclusives, and I play my PC for graphically intensive video games. I am very excited for Splatoon 2 and I'm picking it up day one for sure.
What the heck... these comments are mostly constructive/positive for once. Is this really a Didgital Foundry video?
I was just wondering the same thing. It's pretty nice for a change isn't?
nope,it's fucked up now
zarif Dangit, are the fanboys here?
This video speaks volumes for the PC elites. Nintendo is prioritizing performance over resolution rather than what Microsoft and Sony is doing with how they make games. And they would rather have it that way.
it feels weird, i'm used to nothing but arguing and "nintendo sux"
Solid 60 FPS and stylized graphics with great gameplay will ensure that this game will age very well.
It's just sad when a portable tablet console has a higher percentage of 60fps games than the much more powerful and power hungry systems. It shows how backwards the priorities of some devs are.
R u idiot.
Games like these will run at 4k 120fps at ps5 and xbox series x.
Its such a low demanding game.
"Hits the target 100% of the time" "Splatoon 2 has yet to even drop 1 single frame"
Instantly drops 1 frame.
Unacceptable Digital Foundry, unacceptable... This is the difference between a buy and a rent!
100% locked 60fps... Takes note "big" guys....
not demanding whatsoever
David Francois Facts
David Francois that's not the point, the point is Nintendo almost always targets 60fps and good gameplay. While the competition targets pretty graphics because it's easier to trick the brainless idiots into buying games with dull gameplay, "but but, it's got 4K? Right?"
Gewdvibes Not at all. 60fps is great, and almost all MP titles are 60fps nowadays. Other titles focus on graphics because it helps immerse you into the given world.
All those ink particles and textures covering the ground, and multiplayer, and solid 60fps, its impressive for a tablet, let alone a home game console
lol, Nintendo Switch; the Console Leader in 60 FPS First Party Titles
Gyro > Analog sticks
SteamController Player so true
SteamController Player, that's a matter of preference.
Ricardo Gutierrez Wut?
You mean to say we have telekinesis controls now?
I thought all controllers are physical.
*+Ricardo Gutierrez* Actually, Splatoon still requires you to use the right stick to aim left and right, so there is a physical component, but your point still stands.
Still, the gyro controls allow for some precision aiming that helps to make up for the lack of a keyboard and mouse, allowing for a nice compromise when playing a shooter on console.
Watching videos with stick gameplay always makes me a little sick
That so called "Welfare" hardware sure runs a lot of games at 60FPS. Some sacrifices in resolution but still very impressive.
CaponeTone calling nvidia welfare hardware ??
CaponeTone Impressive.. Not a demanding game at all. Just like all Nintendo games. Lets see it do something like TLOU or Gears of War 4 at 60fps, then I'll be impressed.
Jeremy C tlou is a pretty good movie, and nintendo really doesn't need photorealistic graphics to have good games, thats their thing, they can make you have a good time without showing of real pretty graphics, gears well thats the only reason youd buy an xbox
+ParanoiaGentlman i'm not, that's what many others are saying
Resolution is not the detractor in frame rate moron.. The texture detail in games is what determines the frame rate of the game. More data= more demand for a consistent fps.
Ever since the Gamecube, Nintendo's 3D graphics have been prioritized for 60FPS it seems. Even the NES and SNES mostly had 60fps 2D titles.
William McCarthy 2d games are 60 fps in general (with the exception of Metal Slug and games that only ran at 30 fps).
Nintendo Switch Master Race!
Hey Digital Foundry, are you a kid or a squid?
BigStupidJellyfish PC Master Race would be their answer.
I'm a kid now, but I might want to be a squid now.
I am both *squidbags*
I HAVE NO IDEA!
BigStupidJellyfish More like digital fLoundery
Awesome stuff, thanks for the insight!
framerate > graphics/resolution everytime
Super hype. I'll always choose 60 FPS above all else
Misha K Music ill always choose games, amazing graphics and gameplay, 30fps never ever been a problem for me. Playing breath of the wild with no issues
wicked science 30fps in a shooter would be unacceptable. 30fps in games like BOTW and HZD is fine though.
Chiriac Puiu lmao the cpu is much better than the one found o. the ps4
+Chiriac Puiu Zelda could've been better if weren't a port from the Wii U version.
WalrusEmpire your kidding right
i looked at some images. 1080p looks GOOD.
great that you are doing these videos. can't wait for more!
hmm no AA and dynamic res is dissapinting to say the least. i actually thought it was 1080p at all times.
Ziv Riger the art style makes it hard to tell.
Honestly dynamic res will be the saving grace of the Switch. Being a portable it might be hard to hold a stable framerate at 1080p for most AAA games. Allowing the system to dip in image quality slightly might not look as nice for a second, but I'm more interested in keeping everything responsive. God knows we don't need laggy button inputs in an online shooter.
yeah.. looking at you, destiny 2.
Srsly tho, 30fps for an online shooter? that's ridiculous
That sweet 60 fps. Only if two certain companies could prioritize high framerates over fake 4k.
4kinda
Maybe the multiplayer is 1080p 60fps, since in multiplayer the Switch doesn't have to process any AI since they're all player controled, and the maps are probably smaller and less busy than in singleplayer. Here's hoping for full 1080p 60fps in regular multiplayer!
Pim Nelissen nope. AI's are processed by the CPU. Not the GPU. And the game is not too often on 1080p while playing in multiplayer, but as stated in the video, it's allways above the 720p we got on the Wii U.
The resolution is controlled by the CPU and the graphics are controlled by the GPU, so no AI would just take some off the load of the CPU.
@@Marren yeah thats heaps of bullshit, I seen Splatoon 2 drop to 500p docked and 300p in handheld
This is looking to become a monumental title for the future of Nintendo.
Once the winning formula of the first Splatoon will be taken to portable gaming form the games industry may have a new Tetris, in terms of pop phenomenon and commercial success. Yes, it's a big bet, but the first game went insanely well in spite of coming out on a dead console.
Calling it Tetris is a bit of a stretch. The reason why Tetris is so genius is because its offline, rules are simple and goes infinitely until game over. Tetris design is the perfect example of simple yet addictive. Splatoon 2 is great don't get me wrong. I am loving every minute of my gameplay but its also not for casual gamers unlike Tetris.
Very happy to see more and more games using Dynamic Resolution!
Thank you for this. literally just pre ordered now
tbh the only haters here are some PS and Xbox users. I've seen minor hate from PC users, and you know why? Because majority of them love the switch.
The switch is something new, and what are PS and Xbox consoles? Downgraded PC's. PC users use a strong ass machine to play the more demanding games, while they get a switch to play the first party nintendo games (and the portability too)
All and all, PC and Switch is the better option to have. Theres no point in having an XboxOneX since it doesn't have that much of exclusives. Playstation though, Nails it with the exclusives, so there is kind of a reason to have one. It all comes to personal taste from the consumer.
DF are one of the most unbiased channels in YT! Extremely great job, proud of you guys!
I do wish they would have mentioned the modern features such as physically based rendering, global illumination, modern shaders as well as several others. The video was good as a whole, but I don't know why they never mention these things on Nintendo videos.
Josiah Garber They don't really use a lot of those techniques. Not that it's a bad thing. The games on the Switch are gorgeous.
They did in Breath of the Wild, Arms and now, to some extent, this game. However, DF hardly ever mentioned it.
60 fps.. take notes Sony.
you mean first party developments of sony
Sony dont make ports or games, they made consoles and publish games
But if you choose 60 FPS you can't have great graphism. And for many solo games, you don't need 60 FPS. Like Nintendo with Zelda BotW. With 60 FPS the game don't can released on Wii U. Think about it.
graphism isnt a word
“The Switch consistently gives us 60fps games”
Well that lasted about 8 months
im here just for more footage! i can't wait for the release.
Destiny on Xbox one x is 30fps while the switch is running splattoon 60fps. Thanks Nintendo!
goodinsrt8 destiny 2 is a much much bigger, better, prettier, and awesome game than this turd of a game. Only thing that both games have in common is that they look exactly the same as their predecessors. Stop comparing games that run at 30fps on Xbox/PS4 with shitty ugly games on the switch.
Bastion Main Splatoon is anything but ugly m8.
Ninten Duvo splatoon belongs in 2007
Bastion Main I'm sorry to rain on your parade, but games with "realistic" graphics from 2004 look like dog shit while the cartoony ones are still viable today
WalrusEmpire Windwaker comes to mind.
It's just amazing how much power in this console actually is! :D
1080p und 60 FPS is exactly what I wanted.
Adamantium is easy for a last gen game for babies
Well it's a resolution that's always changing depending on the situation with the lowest being 864p, but who really cares. That game looks great and is a smooth 60FPS which is most important.
It's not 1080p most of the time :P
Last gen? And just because it's not exclusively for adults, doesn't mean that it's only for children.
Silver Snake yeah cry harder :v
Always thought the original Splatoon was one of the best looking Wii U games due to it's unique art style and colourful graphics, whilst it wasn't the most detailed in some areas it still was a great example for a more simpler art style yet could boost a great frame rate. I never noticed the details on how much effort Splatoon 2 has put into it's graphics and dynamic frame rate, honestly it is incredible to think that this game is running on a small handheld, thanks Digital Foundry for a great insight into the games graphics and frame rates!
Thank You, great video as always :D
Thanks, answered all my questions.
July 21st can't come fast enough
Doesn't it drop one frame at @6:28? :)
ryderup But is it noticeable
Axel Felix wow! One frame!
Such weak hardware lmao
(Sarcasm)
Really impressed with my Switch games so far they have all been truly polished and all very playable and original. I have ordered Splatoon 2 for launch as this was by far my most played game on the Wii U
I was a little worried that it only ran at 720p but this is great higher-resolution and more detailed Graphics cool
Seriously if any idiot complain about the resolution or graphic of this game, I don't think anyone should play anything anymore just look how graphic were before and look at this game and how graphics are now, and still almost everyone complain about it so why would the developers waste their time and money for people that think this is shit? A few years in the past this type of gameplay and graphics were just a dream of a gamer and now no one is able to appreciate.
This guy gets it.
I love Nintendo.
Can't wait for this. It looks lush. Gonna be amazing playing in portable mode
Can't wait for this game. Gonna be really fun to play
sony/microsoft: 60fps??? what the fuck is that!!!
n-nani?!?!
Mister C Your trolling would be funnier if the ps4 and xbox one didn't have a large amount of 60 fps games..
But we have 4K!... At 15fps
checkerboard 4k
YT Gamer Yeah, who cares about gameplay? If it looks good then our fans will slobber all over it!
Didn't it drop one single frame around 5:47.
Regular Random Person lol
I saw that too. Right as he finishes saying that not a single frame was dropped, we clearly see a drop to 59 fps. Obviously not a big deal, though. Just kind of funny.
Regular Random Person NOOOOOOOO! we need a day 1 patch! xD this is unacceptable
Completely unplayable, might as well burn our switches guys...
Unbelievable! Pre-order cancelled!
Can't wait for Splatoon 2. :]
getting a switch this week so stoked never tried a splatoon game looking forward to it
It's great
lol 864 P is the New 1080 P IF you let it
Imagine if Nintendo had the hardware power of an Xbox One X to play with. Their games would look soooooo goood.
They look already better than most games on other hardware, it's called Art...
I dont think so, nintendo have always made their first party games with limitations in mind, even as far back as the NES. Their speciality is creating great games from limited tools
Their games would look mostly the same only at a higher resolution and with anti-ailiasing
SkeleCrafter but they don't its going to take 15 years for Nintendo to catch up at this rate.
What folks with a lot hardware power cares about is graphics. Nintendo is using their power to create AI's that blows other games in the same genre out of the water (Breath of The Wild), physics engine, gameplay and overall fun. That's why I like Nintendo's games.
However, I do enjoy some of Naughtydogs titles aswell as they focus a lot on great characters and story.
I'm okay with dynamic resolution. Much better to have resolution dips to preserve a constant 60 fps.
Steady 60fps is all I need to hear. Can't wait to play this game.
i miss when people saw games for the fun, i really dont care if my game is 720p, 1080p, 60 fps, or 30 fps I just hope it plays well and is fun, which is best shown with mario odyssy which still looks great at 720p and it looks like a fun game
that's the thing nobody knows about the screen size for mario it's a demo after all people did this stupid guess work saying splatoon 2 was 720p then magically changed their mind and said "oh wait it's 1080p now"
Why are you even here then? This is a tech analysis channel.
Ugh, if only the Switch was delayed for Nvidia's Pascal architecture instead of just settling for Maxwell this might have been 1080p 60FPS when docked at all times :/
lvlaple4Ever Not just that. It will probably be able to compete with the original Xbox One and PS4 with little compromises.
lvlaple4Ever then the Switch would have been delayed for couple more years while the Wii U continues to loose Nintendo money. by the time it would have released formally, it would have been far too late.
I own both games & I really notice a big difference! Just recently played the original Splatoon after playing Splatoon 2 for a while & wow what a difference!
Dafuq where you expecting, 4K on a handheld
I'm really happy they managed to reach 720p
60 fps that sucks I want 144fps on my 144 hz monitor
What if Nintendo phased out their consoles and just put their games on other platforms? Pfft, I could play Splatoon 2 at 1440p 120fps with a 4-year-old GPU. It would make more sense and would make them more money.
What makes Splatoon 2 better then 1? Marina
Looks great in handheld mode. Splatfest test is this Saturday.
The gyro controls in this game are just phenomenal. comparable to Mouse and Keyboard accuracy, I'd say!
While still beautiful, imagine how amazing BotW would've looked at 1080p 60fps =[
Toddizmo Peopke are working on a emulator for Breath of the Wild for PC, check it out but also buy the official version to support the devs
Torterra Boy I finally found a person that pirates a game but supports the developer, props to you friend :)
Toddizmo You can play it on Cemu on pc at 4k/60... Look up videos, it looks 10 times better.
SWITCHing it up That's not pirating. You buy an official wii u copy, rip it to your pc and play via an emulator.
Torterra Boy I just want to say I appreciate that you bought a copy of the game. I can't stand when people emulate games that are fairly recent and are still available for retail but don't buy a physical copy.
Before Destiny 2 was shown off me and my brother were hoping they'd make it 60fps and downgrade the (already) mediocre graphics if they had to. Nope. Instead they went with 30FPS and max player of 8 in a competitive game.
Leave it to Nintendo to show all those flashy developers how it's done properly.
(I realise Splatoon is 4v4 too, but it was designed from the start that way. Destiny wasn't)
Finally! Thanks so much for this video! I got sick of people thinking the game looks like the press screenshot which were taken at a higher resolution and with heavy antialiasing ._.
The 30fps hub thing is genius. Good gameplay but good visuals in the hub.
Also, nice video. :)
Nintendo Switch looks me Have the better Exclusives Line UP for this year with Big tittles like Mario Odissey, Mario Kart, Zelda breath of the Wild, Splaaton 2, Arms, May a new Smash Bros...
Switch have a better Exclusive LINE UP for thies year than Sony or Microsoft in my opnion...
Xenoblade 2 as well, should get a release date soon.
Those are all far into the future. The above guy was mentioning the ones being released this year.
No, he did not, having "smash bros" in a list of game upcoming this year is delusional
Wait! Microsoft ever have exclusives? Shocking.
Loli Hunter です Come on man, sony released some of they exclusives for Microsoft's software like Nier, Street Fighters, HellBlade, No mans sky... And for Windows MS have the Play anywhere, no one say anything about that but keep talking xbox has no exclusives...
Switch has more exclusive 60fps games than ps4 does
The Boss Stage1 ok.
It would be nice to have it in 1080p all the time, but if it means a smooth constant 60fps I'm willing to play it in lower resolutions.
The one thing i miss is one tap instant jump like on Splatoon 1 on the Wii u.
Splatoon running at 60fps while Crash Bandicoot and Destiny 2 running at 30fps. lol
Here before the salty comments.
Omg, this soundtrack is FIRE
Nice to hear. I want to see what the Multiplayer is like in terms of resolution, but I just love how Nintendo always prioritise performance and fun over IQ, kudos.
Nintendo 90% of the time: We don't care about graphics or resolution. Our games are art. We don't need all that technological stuff. It's just about having fun.
The other 10%: Look at this great framerate. The others really need to take notes on that one. X Master Race assemble.
This is why no one takes fanboys seriously.
Nihilus Literally none of the "Nintendo fanboys" say that its mostly PC players trying to make the more tradtional consoles or PC clones look pathetic by comparision. Don't you get it?
Why is the entire comment section full with exactly the same comments including from well known Digital Foundry console fanboy accounts then?
You don't take fanboys of ANYTHING seriously. Period.
Dude remember last gen around 2010 when no one gave two shits about framerates and resolutions? This generation sucks so much.
lmao this little console having more 60fps games than ps4 or xbox one in 4 years.
Seems like the people closest to pc gamers are nintendo switch buyers!
If their PC are 2010 models ...
I was talking about that they can play most games in 60fps you dumbass.
@Ladiesman1447m, "more 4k/60fps games than Switch has 60fps games altogether." ahmm... how old is PS4 again? 4-5 years? and ahm... are you sure that those are true 4K games? with 60fps? think again please.
looks amazing
It looks beautiful, it plays silky smooth, that's all I need. I love the variable resolution to keep that 60fps. 900p 60fps over 4k 20fps ANY day!!
Xbox Fanboys.... "Yet another Nintendo video, Digital Foundry are being paid by Nintendo. These reviews are fake news. Why do they ignore the Xbox? Build the wall!"
Basically, if DF is ever positive about the game or company it's talking about all the other fanboys will pounce on them. And if DF is ever negative about the game or company it's talking about all the respective fanboys will pounce on them.
Let the toxic comments COMMENCE!
To be honest, it's not that bad right now.
Except for that Mordecai R guy bashing everyone who says that frames are more important than resolution.
Obviously you'd like to have both a high framerate and a high resolution, but if sacrifices have to be made, framerate shouild take priority over resolution. That's why games like Metroid Prime still hold up.
LOL at sunglasses guy.
I never understood how ppl can base an entire game on some numbers.... "oh no it dipped a frame! The horror! Ew 720p only? Not buying that game". Oh no I didn't see the splatter of that raindrop over there! Omg I can't see the shadow of that leaf!"... I could go on...like who cares. 720p and 30 are all I need if I'm still having fun playing the game. Visuals are usually at the bottom when I'm trying to see if I want/rating a game
Hisoka91 Exactly. People are quick to forget how horrible some of the classics ran on the PS3 and PS2. And yet everyone remembers them with nostalgia. My only problem with multiplayer games like these is that they all use peer to peer connections which inherently brings some input delay and leaves you at the mercy of your host's internet connection. I can't even remember how many times I've rage quitted because I got splatted because of shitty connection. Like my shots went through a lot of the time only to end up me getting killed. Same thing with ARMS. Punches and grabs going through the player especially in 2v2 mode.
Oh look another game that I can't play on my million dollar pc oh.
''Million dollar pc'' k
😅 o man please...
or any other console
Give it a few years, just like Splatoon 1
MrGamemaker8 Splatoon 1 on emulator still crashes frequently though... and no online mode.
I think you will be impressed. I didn't even notice any frame rate drops or resolution drops.
reviews game before it even comes out. this god damn g.
switch > PS4 pro
Ibrahim Hassan nice bait
AdMyr 22, I'd say it comes down to personal preference.
300$ vs 400$
zarif $300 vs $400+ 4kTV$$$$
Shuny 11 Tru af
Lets be honest Splatoon 2 on any other system would be an indie game
games1masteruk it wouldn't you know how that works right?

can you do an update on splatoon 2? i’ve noticed after the 3.0 update the graphics downgraded to, i assume, a maximum 720p. but i’m can’t be sure it’s gone down all the way to 720p. so i would like to see a professional give the correct information so we can know what it’s really gone down to and so we can spread the word. many people don’t know, i feel like the community should know. thanks :)
TRANSLATIONS ARE SACRED.
"nintendo takes framerate stability seriously" You hear this Zelda? Evil evil little game with your shitty framerate!
Xtee Ahn They're 3-1 right now with released games and Mario also had a sold 60 FPS
At least its alot more stable now but its disappointing that its not a stable 30fps. If it was developed exclusively for the switch its performance would most likely be far better.
Mason with postprocces turned off.. Mario is going to be an amazing game but is using last gen graphics, except for global illumination and no antialiasing
wicked science The art style saves it from being ugly though
kryojenisist who is?
You know I never noticed the Wii U as looking bad when I was playing, however I'm not the type to notice. However, looking at the comparison its like wow the Switch looks dam nice.
Not much of a Nintendo fan, but I definitely admire their dedication for smooth frame rates.
Awesome Wii U remaster!
