Note that it will only drop to 540p if you prolly stress test the game on docked lol.
Seems to be stable 30 fps on handheld/docked.

How much can we trust this analysis? Even Xenoblade 2 ran at 720p in docked mode according to Digital Foundry's analysis, so the original running at less sounds definitively weird.
Switch is truely the Vita 2 including its resolution for some games. Hopefully its fun enough to make up for its lackluster resolution in portable mode
Hey, as long as the performance is consistent, I don't mind this. Yes, it's not ideal, but better than having the game chug.

Its might just be in the absolute worst case scenario it drops to 540p.
So like in 1% of the game. Maybe less lol.
Legit day 1 and can't wait, but garbage honestly. Rubbish iq. Docked looks like it should be 900p as a fuckin minimum. But I'm immune to switch IQ disappointments now. Used to it.
Even if the game maintains its max docked resolution 90% of the time (unlikely), that's still going to look rough as hell on most TVs. You'd expect Monolith Soft would've spec'd this game to hit native resolutions after the amount of flack XC2 received for its poor resolution, doubly-so considering this is a remake/rework of a Wii game. They didn't have to go so hard on the visuals as to compromise this aggressively on resolution.
Apparently it's from the game's configuration files, so it just says how much it can drop, not if it actually does. I mean, it's a Wii port, so thinking about it, I honestly don't think it will drop so often.
Even if it's mostly 720p docked that's still disappointing tbh....like I've seen more demanding switch games. Switch pro or switch 2 cant come fast enough
Good to know. Maybe putting that in the OP can help avoid misunderstandings?
It's just annoying considering it's a remaster
Performance being stable is fine but it's not unfair to have expected 900p docked or something like that.
XC2 looked really nice at 720p as well, some of what we have seen looks great anyway in fairness

I'm gonna wait for the Digital Foundry analysis before giving this too much weight. Either way docked mode should probably be fine. It's interesting that Nintendo seems to be pushing a lot of more modern rendering techniques without the hardware being quite able to handle it, at least when the Switch's successor comes out all of these games should scale up really well without much effort (hopefully)
I played the entirety of Xenoblade 2 in handheld only so I'm happy as long as the frame rate keeps up
you should fix the title, its misleading. just put 720 dynamic for docked mode and 540 dynamic for the handheld mode.
