Breath of the Wild - Wii U vs. Switch

EXPLAIN

youtube.com/watch?v=W8WjK7iA5IA

Looks fine on Wii U.

But something to take into account is that these might be at different stages of development.

Either there's a resolution difference of the Switch version has better textures.

There are two versions of the switch demo at the event, the one Gamexplain played is a more finished version of the game for the switch, the other version is the e3 wii u demo ported to the switch, the way you can tell is if you look at the dpad icon in some scenes.
If its a plus dpad then its the wii u port, if its the 4 c buttons then its the switch versions

That's what I'm hoping. I'd be absolutely flabbergasted if a tablet ends up having better color range and texture resolution than a dedicated console.

Switch version is 900p when docked

Supposedly the switch is a little stronger than a wii u. TV mode zelda is 900p instead of 720p.

Im sorry but im confused as fuck so can someone PLEASE tell me what the fuck is going on?

I mean there's the wiiu, right? A fucking CONSOLE. And there's the 3ds, a HANDHELD.
So, is the Switch supposed to be a CONSOLE (as in the new generation, the successor of the wiiu) or a handheld (aka 3ds-2)

Because i seriously dont fucking know, at first i thought it was a console but now people are saying its a handheld-

And yeah i get its kinda both but come on, you are either a dedicated console or a fucking handheld. Stop trying to gime me bullshit nintendo, this is a fucking disaster already

First of all, your problem is that you're calling the Wii U a dedicated console as if that's supposed to mean something. The Wii was a dedicated console and it was less powerful than the original Xbox, a device that launched 6 years earlier. The Wii U struggled to compete graphically with the PS3 and 360 so there was very weak tech inside.

While the Switch clearly isn't very powerful, it doesn't take much to give it a slight edge on the Wii U. A little bit goes a long way and would allow you to run at 900p instead of 720p easily. And other things like memory are dirt cheap, which would allow it to have more ram for better textures.

So no, it's not surprising at all that a tablet in 2017 beats a console that was barely as strong as consoles from 2006

[beefy handheld with a tv output

why is nintendo so fucking retarded?

honestly I don't care, botw will probably be the last new nintendo game I get

The wii was objectively more powerful then the Xbox

>EXPLAIN
Well, you see, the Switch is a bit more powerful than the Wii U. this is why the Switch version of Zelda look better than the Wii U version.

Satisfied?

both scenes could be rendered in 720p; one video source is encoded at 1080p, the other is 720p

the difference literally could be in the bitrate of the video. it's impossible to tell

although I will be surprised if textures and shadows are *exactly* the same between versions

It objectively wasn't.

nice ps2 texture

That's a pretty big difference. But I'll wait until there's a bit clearer proof on the subject.

wiiU version looks better

The Wii U is on the left.

i bet you dont even know what a gflop is or what it contributes to a system

Why does the grass look worse on Switch?

it's the new buzzword for console kids to measure their toys in

they're all iliterate. they talk about shadows and textures using words like "low, medium, and high" and talk about "4k" as if its a setting you enable

>highlight the ONE number that is smaller
o i am laffin

If that's the case I'll be ecstatic.

Of course no way wiiu can pull zelda at 900p, its probably 720 or sub hd

The question is which version is more stable?

both sides look absolutely horrendous.

this is some well done autism and i'm gonna believe it.

A slight resolution increase and better shadows.
I was expecting something more drastic that you could notice without having both side by side, isn't the switch supposedly a good bit more powerful?

are you retarded

W H O C A R E S

NINTENDO HAS NEVER BEEN ABOUT FANCY VISUALS YOU FAGGOTS IT'S BEEN ABOUT ITS WORLDBUILD AND GAMEPLAY. STOP EXPECTING WORSE HARDWARE TO LOOK LIKE PC GAMES.

I dont really care about graphics, but if the fucking game has a doesnt have stable fps it will be shit

>NINTENDO HAS NEVER BEEN ABOUT FANCY VISUALS
So you weren't alive for anything before the wii I see.

>900p
I'm done with Nintendo.
Srsly that's not even funny anymore.

Good, I can pirate the game for loadline or just emulate and enjoy 4K gaming.

Kinda feel bad for people who bought a Wii U but the game still looks dated on Switch.

I wonder what it was like having the gamecube as your first video game system and being ignorant of the history of the console your a fanboy for.

Same, mate.

This is what it will look like emulated on PC.

Nier is 900p on PS4. This is far less funny than cute little Nintendo running at that resolution.

Nice. Was expecting 720p

Don't insult emulators it will look way better than that.

So I got Cemu from a link here a few days ago. Do I need to download anything else like dependencies, to be ready for a leak?

Looks like a blurry mess

Right with horrible shading, constant crashes, 20fps with framedrops to 1fps

no one spoonfeed this retard

>muh sekrit club

Reshade to make it look better.

On day 1 you'll probably have to find a "key" to play it, some Wii U games require this like WWHD for instance.

Cemu 1.7.1 will be out probably on the 20th of next month, though I think they might release one closer to the launch day of BOTW just to get peak performance maybe? Or maybe they'll release it after BOTW for the same reason? We'll see.

Who knows, maybe it will just werk.

so there is no huge difference except the fps? I mean the stream of the WiiU was washen out, off screen it looks more vibrant.

Also Eurogamer said "Zelda looks on the screen even better than on the tv" and that it rivals the ipad mini

start up a game on Cemu and it says compiling cached shaders, then crashes.

what the fuck am i supposed to do

>isn't the switch supposedly a good bit more powerful?

fuk u m8

Yea they have a no spoonfeed rule retard fuck off too
