Playing Switch on a CRT using HDMI2VGA :D

Doesn't the 4:3 screen monitor cut off parts of the image?

It is totally the opposite (especially JRPGs)--the inversion of the trope is the joke :P
I did not see any joke until I saw the message ive quoted. I was going to post this as a response:

According to the comments, seems like the switch has a hidden support for 720p 4:3 ratio.
Of course, this CRT is a Pro CRT, so it can handle it.

Seems plausible, as I'm using an VGA2AV converter and my SAMNSUNG LCD can't support 1080p but my LANIX 17" CRT does.

According to what comments. How can your 4:3 CRT TV support 1080p, does it squash the image?

Still patiently waiting for ridiculously expensive and heavy 4k CRTs.
Like...laptops hooked to 27" Consumer TV's displays a resolution of +4000p?

Imagine the resolution a PVM CRT that weights 200pounds can support :P

No, the comments on Reddit says that the Switch isn't cropping anything on THAT CRT.
It displays everything at 720p in that 4:3 ratio.
Everyone thought that the image would get cropped but apparently, the Switch has a hidden 720p 4:3 mode.

Nintendoes...?
What... your mama won't?
At this rate we're going to have our comments removed LOL.

But yeah, definitely the original poster on Reddit said that he was surprised that there wasn't a cropped picture. But that everything looks squished though.
