This is partly why I would have preferred just the Wii game running at 1080p native. I prefer my games to look clean over anything else.

I would wait for Digital Foundry. This is one screenshot, compared to videos where we've seen handheld performance.
I thought it was the CE. About the money don't worry, they will charge it only at the moment of shipping (i.e. on Thursday, if everything goes fine).
Fuck! Xenoblade 2 all over again. Unbelievable.Woah this looks very bad

ok yeah thats pretty bad lol.Woah this looks very bad
what a shame. i had no problems with XC2 in handheld mode so I probably won't have with this either but :(
I'm not worried by these screen tho, that thread marked video shows the game in movement and it runs good enough imho
The screens don't make justice on Switch half of the time, I remember seeing something similar with Dragon Quest XI S and it's pretty good on switch's screen and it has way more complex graphic

I'll wait for DF but this looks strange. Torna was mostly fine so I'm surprised by these screens. I'm still going to play this mostly on TV so it's fine but still.

it definitely looks better on the actual switch than in screenshots but still some parts like gormott and mor ardain were really rough and made thing hard to see
I guess the main improvement is that there is no sharp filter. Geez...I thought they would have improved a lot.Woah this looks very bad
Yeah this doesn't really bother me (I played XC2 exclusively in handheld), but I understand why it'd turn others off, espicially those with eyesight problems.
Games in general are way better justified in motion than screenshots.
...yeah. sames.
Woah this looks very bad
I mean the image is 576p so you lose quality there. Will probably look better on the actual switch
Oof well I enjoyed Xeno 2 in handheld mode so I should be good.Woah this looks very bad
I played XC2 almost exclusively in handheld mode and in the end got used to the subpar resolution, but it's such a shame that the DE has the same exact resolution problem.
This will impact review scores for sure. :(
Switch's screenshot capture degrades quality as well but you can still tell the difference between higher res and lower res games.

Well, you'd have to design your game around that limiting hardware, no? How come Witcher 3 has higher resolutions than Xenoblade 2 in handheld mode lol. To me it's not a huge issue but I don't think it's completely the fault of the hardware.
Woah this looks very bad
Non native UI? (image is 576p)
I haven't played XC2 but this looks suspicious to me.
Woah this looks very bad
if you hide the characters is not that bad actually.
Where did you score your copy? Will travel all the way there to confirm
Lol why oregano?if you hide the characters is not that bad actually.
At least you got a date! :p
Mine says "Order received" and "we'll send you an email when we have an estimated delivery date". Ordered at April 7th. F*** that, lol!
I did that lol. For the exact same reasons. Cdkeys is a bit cheaper iirc.
Good gods how did they think this was acceptable?Woah this looks very bad
It looks embarrasing.
People saying XB2 is "fine" is the reason why I don't trust the word of previews or people playing the game. I need direct feed footage to judge for myself.
barely, with worse frame rate dips. Developing to keep resolutions up would also severely diminish xenoblade's world designs, which is what the series is largely known for. I can only hope Furukawa takes hardware more seriously than Iwata did.
if you hide the characters is not that bad actually.
I approve.
Saying that I'm flicking through my screenshots(on twitter) and I think it does look better than Torna and comparable to a bunch of other big RPGs(of various origins)
Actually Ryza looks best lol

This is getting off topic now but how come Monolith was able to get a game as huge as Xenoblade at 480p and good-ish framerate on the Wii?
One thing people seem to not know is that Monolith soft built the XCX engine from absolute scratch without using any middleware specifically for Wii U. I'd imagine porting to a completely different hardware architecture and design was the bigger problem than actual hardware prowess. Anyway, no point in arguing about it. It is what it is.
Holy hell, I can deal with low res (I play retro games all the time) but that is so blurry that it's genuinely painful to look at for too long.
Yeah it's exactly like XC2 and all the hopes we had based on previous footage was just a placebo effect. I don't mind too much in the end, I played 2 mostly docked unlike every other game and I'll do the same again, and what I played in handheld mode never bothered me too much either way
Xenoblade didn't have a portable aspect to drag it down, it's framerate constantly dipped too anytime you fought more than 2 or 3 enemies so I'm not sure what you mean by that. XCX was the only xenoblade game with good performance and that came at the cost of ridiculous pop in. It's time for Nintendo to go back and implement a pre-wii mentality for hardware.
That's it for me. I dropped XB2 because I can only play on Handheld and the graphics were just too bad for me, so I guess I won't be getting this at all. A shame, since I really wanted to give it a try since it's the only one I haven't played.
oh godWoah this looks very bad
this is so bad, what the fuck
Some screenshots (handheld mode). On sceen it looks pretty much like XC2. On TV the same as XC2 as well.
I think those actually look better haha
Hey can you tell me if the game lets you remap any buttons? I want to change the target and arts select during battle, swap them around if possible.
