Actually, I don't know why they would port PS4 games, but...

The Switch will most likely have the new Tegra X2 chip which is based on the Pascal architecture which in terms means great performance with low power consumption - best used in.... You guessed right, tablets. There are also rumors that the Switch underclocks to save battery while in 720p mode and goes full power while plugged in at 1080p - the Ps4 barely handles 900p so there's that. My guess is the Switch is going to be as powerful or even more than the xbone or Ps4

Same, I think a lot of people are going to be shocked with the NSwitch in terms of specs. Plus, when there was an explosion in the Switch version of Breath of The Wild, there wasn't any frame drops to my knowledge.

Ps4's have actually been fairly reasonable as far as price lately. New ones are going for $250, and I bet you could find an used one for under $200 no problem. Who knows, you might even find a new one if your lucky for about $200. Amazon had them on sale for $216, and I'd bet that deal will come back before Christmas. If you can save up enough money, now is a pretty good time to look for a ps4

Watch GameXplain's video on framerate, they've determined every frame in the video is unique

Oh look Jimmy Fallon struggling to remain relevant.

Oh look.. Someone with nothing to add to the thread making pointless posts.

Now onto something actually relevant, The Switch version does -not- have the framedrop as the Wii U version did.

Although to be fair, we don't know if the framerate problem is still in the wii U version or not.

We also know that Unlike the Xbone which natively runs it's games in 900p, that the Wii U has indeed run games natively at 1080p. So if the Switch is more powerful than the Wii U, it should do fine.

*Hell.. Lets be honest.. If they turned off the Tablet for the Wii U version of Breath of the Wild, then some of the framedrops would likely go away because it would free up resources for the game directly.

There is nothing to be said, as evidenced by your post which doesn't really make any conversation either. That's cool though, just go and harass other users, big man.

Then there's poor Bill sitting next to Miyamoto and no one even acknowledged he was there.

Lol Jimmy Fallon geeking out to much. He seemed rattled by Miyamoto being there.

It seemed fake, as in over-exaggerating to be funny.

Right, I don't expect frame drops in either version, it was probably an early software version issue more than a hardware issue. They might have to reduce some of the graphical fidelity on the WiiU version to get a stable framerate but I'm sure it'll happen one way or another.

Oh everybody saw the Gene Simmons-like tongue action.

I suppose commedy is somewhat subjective, so different things work for different people.

Comedy is COMPLETELY subjective.

In most cases you are right; however, Warner Brothers reporting their own websites as illegal is objectively funny

Fps definitely looks better, i still see some jaggies so this game on switch is definitely not done or this game might just be a port, hmm.

Yeah but then you have to compare the textures and shadows between the WiiU version and the Switch version

Either thats a 720p projector or they really changed the way the game looks on the WiiU version vs the Switch

Textures on switch look like shit. Im just hoping this was the port and not the actual switch version

You can't even make that call right now. The only actual switch footage we have so far is from the Fallon thing. We haven't seen any other gameplay on an actual switch system so far. One game does not a rule set. Though Tbh I think that BotW has looked beautiful so far, and this stands for the brief footage on the switch as well.

Well yes i can to an extent, the video was clear enough for me to see how unoptimised this game seems to be right now, seeing as how there were shadow glitches (you see it as link pans around the plateau) However draw distance and FPS have improved. Also the grass loading is the same as the wiiu which makes no sense to me seeing as how it is reported to have double the ram of the wiiu.
