>This flags a surprising design choice from Nintendo. The Switch outputs at a maximum of 1080p, with options for 720p and 480p in there too. However, even while docked to a TV, the UI still renders at 720p. When connected to a screen, all the graphics, text, and even the Mii Maker app upscale from 720p to whatever resolution you have set as your output. That's really quite a shame. For the sake of keeping things simple, Switch's front-end seems to keep the native 720p layout used in portable mode, all of which means a less clear image on 1080p or 4K sets. In fact, 4K users will go through two sets of resizing - an internal upscale to 1080p, then the display's bump to ultra HD.
HOW FUCKING LAZY can Nintendo be? They literally did nothing with the WiiU for 4 years. They literally held Zelda hostage for 2 years. What the FUCK have they been doing all these years? Making marketing deals and hiring a bunch of lawyers? Because they sure as hell aint working on their fucking games and gaming hardware.
lol JUST haha it's just like my favorite mayme JUST FUCK ME UP haha great image my friend!
Kayden Lopez
>waaaah s-say it isnt true Nintendo-sama!!
Landon Ortiz
SHUT U PS ITISDFINE IT DOESNT EVEN MATTER ITS JUST A UI FUCK OFF SONYGGER GO PLAY YOUR SHIT YOU CUKCSK
Isaac Price
Wew, someone got triggered.
Charles Robinson
>nintendrones WILL defend this
Actually wait I will defend this.
You see, the switch is not a real console, its just a nintendo tablet you can hook up in your TV, so of course every single aspect of it will be shit and laughable
Lincoln Collins
...
Angel Barnes
>w-wahoo...
Owen Rogers
lol I love this meme too the funny thing about this one is that it is Mario and he is fucked because of the Switch and the bad reviews it is getting lol that is pretty funny
Luke Baker
]they'll patch it they wont patch it
Liam Johnson
>720p stretched to 4k
Andrew Harris
this is one hell of an exaggerated reaction for a fucking menu. Sup Forums never ceases to amaze me
Ethan Allen
no it isn't
they can't even get basic shit right
which is what makes this baffling
Adrian Morgan
lol
Cameron Kelly
>something as basic as a ui >lazily just stretch out the shitty assets from 720p for your 1080p function >somehow it still uses 12GB of your 32GB storage
literally what is nintendo doing?
John Carter
So what it still looks great
Julian Brooks
how else will I get my reddit screencaps for r/Sup Forums look mom console wars are exactly like they used to be years ago haha 599 dollars
Gavin Thompson
Its a sign of the worst to come its not a good look at all. Its like someone coming to a job interview with dirty clothes. It doesn't necessarily mean they will do a bad job but would you really trust that candidate or have them be a first pick? Impressions count and this is a bad one for Nintendo.
Jacob Johnson
How mad you are right now, nintendildo?
Parker Perry
Nintendo just fuck my butt
Michael Fisher
>make a big-ass portable that's too big to take anywhere, with tech too strong for a reasonable battery life >then try to make it into a console with all the shortcomings of portable tech >clearly outline the shortcomings of the console hybrid in all PR, then announce that a true portable successor is in the works
I sincerely don't understand what's happening
Ian Sullivan
Running their company into the ground. Genuinely surprised they're getting away with it now, all these decent franchises being held hostage by a bunch of tech-illiterate retards.
Elijah Flores
they'll patch
Chase Jenkins
Let's a go! Wahoo! *joycon unsynchs and falls on floor*
Brayden Collins
>Switch >big pick 1 (one)
Easton Wilson
they're just overcompensating due to zelda being game of the decade
Nolan Edwards
That's stupid, but may be changed later with the patch.
I'm getting a Switch because I like Nintendo games, but I really don't see the reasoning behind that. Kind of like in Mario Kart 8 when the ending movie no matter what resolution you were in was in 480p.
Nintendo usually have amazing menus, this is odd.
Not a deal breaker for me, I mean I still frequently play 360 games and retro consoles on my CRT, but I like pretty menus so it's a shame.
Daniel Bailey
Not gonna defend nintendo but console OS takes too much fucking space in general why the fuck??
>Need 160GB just to install the PS4 OS >Meanwhile Windows which is the most bloated OS in history using old code since Windows 95 only takes 20GB maximum.
Blake Wood
I pick big.
Jayden Jenkins
The patch you're getting is an artificial one. Because you've lost all your hair Nintencucks
Justin Nguyen
>Every media outlet that discredits nintendo is sonygger propaganda
Daniel Gray
Why? What could possibly be gained from this?
Gavin Rodriguez
>Nintendo usually have amazing menus, this is odd.
Wii: HAHAHA
DS: what the fuck is this restart shit?
DSi: HAHAHA
3DS: outdated as fuck
Wii U: HAHA
Switch: you have five buttons you can press, that'll be 10GBs of your storage
Logan Brown
That's Last of Us.
Jack Diaz
Thats why they shat on HZD
Daniel Cooper
>with tech too old for a reasonable battery life Fixed. It's 6 year old Tegra X1 shit.
Joshua Ward
I'm so glad I'm waiting a few months to buy the Switch, so they can fix any problems and add VC and shit
John James
digital foundry = eurogamer?
Alexander Russell
fuck off poneyfag
Kayden Ortiz
> and add VC and shit user i have bad news for you...
the voice chat will only be a phone app that you... connect to your switch which... then connects back to your phone and then sends the audio back to the swicth,... or something...
i dont think even nintendo knows how it works yet
Jayden King
>they actually fell for the 1080p and 4k meme
kys desu
also
give me a single example of a 4k console game that isn't casual trash.
Oliver Green
nice implication retard the last good console was DS the switch looks like some abortion between a snes controller and a chink tablet
Isaiah Ortiz
>That's stupid, but may be changed later with the patch. i sincerely hope this is bait you brain dead drone
Jeremiah Jenkins
everyone's been shitting on it, the only people praising it are pure graphicsfags, as the gameplay is atrocious.
Adam Hernandez
>my $100 phone can display 1080p natively yet the $300 Switch can't
what went so wrong ?
Asher Peterson
I meant virtual console but alright
Nathan Sanders
>720p stretched to 4k
Cameron Wood
Yea thats why it got 88. Eurogamer are the most neutral journalist in gaming anyway.
Joseph Anderson
It's ok. I know you're upset. It'll be ok.
Noah Ward
Nintendo doesn't know mobile phones exist.
Carson Gomez
Because they are storage hoags you can't do shit because of them policies of eating as much space as possible.
Jose Bailey
>sonyggers believe this
Jose Nelson
It's not really exaggerated. You should've seen my face when I turned the Wii on for the first time. I genuinely thought there was something wrong with either the system or the tv.
Ethan Allen
Horizon the goty of 2017
Levi Richardson
AHAHAHAHA SONY PPONIES OUT IN FULL DAMAGE CONTROL MODE IN FULL FORCE
In about a day thr game of the fucking decade will release anf all these stupid 6.7 newfag memespouting will get BTFO BY THE 10/10s from BOTW. you can laugh about hardware all you want but what matters is GAMES and this game is already being hailed as a masterpiece by reviewers. You sonuggers are so desperate its so sad AND SO FUCKING SCARED YOU'RE TREMBLING YOU'RE CRYING AND SCREAMING

Mason Butler
>3DS >Amazing menu

>Wii >Amazing menu
h-heh amazing!
Zachary Long
HOW DARE ANYONE INSULT MY $300 LEAPFROG TABLET WITH NO GAMES?????
Benjamin Wood
if it's the same resolution then it will mean faster switching times on and off the dock. It's also in their best interest for the base UI to be as computationally efficient as possible to minimize overhead, as it's presumably accessible and running at all times.
Carter Price
kys, i play on pc
Owen Carter
I said no casual games
Luke Ross
NO NON ON ON ON ON ONO N ON ON ON DON'T INSULT ININIDNENTEDO YOU FUCKER
Josiah Bell
I'M WITH U BRO, CANT WAIT TO PLAY ZELDA AT SILKY SMOOTH 900p 20fps ON LAUNCH DAY :)))))
Josiah Morgan

Evan Young

Xavier Torres
fuck off marketer. i hate nintendo as much as anyone but horizon is literally worse.
Ryan Hernandez
Damn you have some fucking issues buddy, try and work them out.
Jason Taylor
Horizon is worse than what? A company? That's deep man..
Noah Powell
JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA EL JUSTO
Jack Foster
b-but it would cost 1 dollar more
b-but it would mean 10 minutes less battery life
real reason is that it's weak as shit and games couldn't run at 1080p so they don't bother just because some 2D indie could run at 1080p
David Kelly
So what you're saying is, a bad game on a good console is more worthy of the GOTY award than a good game on a bad console? Newsflash, a bad game being on a good console doesn't magically make the game good.
Nathan Kelly
SIX
Noah Harris
gucci-guy, is that you?
Matthew Myers
it's not like you stick to the menu, only the wii menu with it's music is awesome
Easton Edwards
What phone do you have?
Connor Campbell
POINT
Samuel Reed
why would you even play any console but the pro and scorpio on a 4k tv?
Logan Campbell
I don't care.
I don't care that it doesn't come with a browser, I have a fucking phone and PC for that. I don't care that it doesn't come with VC, I bought a NEW console to play NEW games. I don't care that it doesn't come with a play log, I just want to play games. I don't care that the battery is "only" 2-3 hours in handheld, I have a charger with me.
I don't care about 3 people with joy-con issues out of thousands of reviewers just because they are intentionally 1) blocking the signal and 2) sitting 15feet away, I don't plan to hide mine behind my back while I play or sit in five rooms away from the actual console.
Listen Sup Forums, there's nothing you or your shitty agenda can do about this train. Next friday this time I'm sitting at home enjoying a new fucking zelda game while you will STILL be here shitposting about some new drama bullshit.
Isaac Green

I'll be enjoying it, too. On the Wii U.
Levi Clark
hey I got to stare something on my Switch while waiting for games to exist for it
Hunter Roberts
>200 dollar phone can do 1080p >it's got a snapdragon 801 snort sony always wins snort
Alexander Robinson
Come back and tell us when you beat that also on the wii u game
Jaxon Perry
B-but muh Xenosaga 2, muh Bomberman
Owen Brooks
>a '200' dollar phone has better specs than a 350 dollar 'console'
>inb4 its not a console its a handheld
Ian Lewis
does mario even count though? they literally just dropped mario into vice city and gave his hat eyeballs. the game is going to be trash.
Michael Martin
The Switch is pretty much a non-console.
Wyatt Miller
BREAKING NEWS: The Switch hardware is shit.
Tell me something I didn't already know, famalam.
Jayden Myers
More like they put Mario into Sonic 06. Fucking shit this is a blunder.
