they need to plan how far into their rooftop bbq they should wait to signal the quirky girl in the next building to drop by with her switch so that the system doesn't die before its time for smores

bloodysabbath posted:The plus versions are 1080p, at 5.5in., and I'm guessing this thing is going to be more in line with a small tablet than a big phone. I'm not necessarily saying it's a fatal flaw, but if they do go lower rez I hope they at least go OLED or something. It's going to be 6.2 inches, IPS LCD, 720p. That's a PPI of ~236, with general concensus being that 300 is where you don't need to go higher for general use. So it's not exactly a Retina screen, but it's most likely going to look good enough that boosting the resolution wouldn't be worth the trade-off in framerate and battery life. Agreed on the OLED though, it's a shame they aren't going that way. Also, FWIW, the Vita has a PPI of ~220, and I think that looks very sharp.

how many games on android/ios are even rendered natively above 720p, X1/PS4 games barely crack 800p like i'm choosing my next video card and i'm probably getting the low end 1050ti that comes out on the 25th and that card is like "don't expect to game above 1080p." i feel like unless you're a super PC nerd you probably haven't actually experienced what super-HD gaming looks like to be able to know the difference when you see a game on the Switch screen The 7th Guest fucked around with this message at 08:58 on Oct 22, 2016 |

Xbox One is where you really see it, some games that are 720p in fact, like Dead Rising 3, and Ground Zeroes, Battlefront, BF4 I think the Switch games will look really fuckin good on that screen, if it even comes close to X1's detail, let alone with Nintendo's own first party games The 7th Guest fucked around with this message at 09:06 on Oct 22, 2016 |

It'll definitely have a touchscreen, because how could they not rerelease Mario Maker on it?

I like the touch screen on both the 3DS and the Wii U so I am hopeful the Switch will keep that up. It's cool to tap icons and stuff.

Pretty clever of Apple about giving Nintendo rights for using their attachable joypad patents in exchange of a few iTunes games (and probably other monetary arrangments as well).

mobile gaming has already had its boom and bubble burst, now it's just there, extant, for some VERY FEW developers to cash in bigtime (mostly using predatory tactics) and for most to fail and shutter

All I'm saying is the Switch better have a Metroid game. And it better be a METROID game and none of this Federation Force or THE BABY nonsense.
