[Maxrunner]

Can I take a moment to say fuck Capcom? This is what actual support looks like. Definitely getting these

It's legit:

The profile on the Switch cases actually really works well for the framing.

FUCK

YES

I'm gonna buy this just for that box-art.

Spoiler

And the game too, but yeah, that box art.

Crap I wanted to buy digital...

 

[Trago]

I've been playing my Switch more than I've been playing my PS4 or PC.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but depending on how well the port is, I might just start buying a lot more third party games on Switch, or at least double dip. The thought of playing DOOM in portable mode is really exciting.

Yeah, fuck Capcom. Late ports on Switch isn't actual support. Actual support is late ports, like these!

 

[sinonobu]

I guess Todd Howard was serious when he said he was very impressed with Switch .

And it's also weird to see the biggest support from the long time nintendo doubters while we get bare to none from long time supporters like Capcom

 

[Duderz]

Gyro aiming PLEASE!

 

[con-ca-te-nate]

FUCK!!!!! Wahhhhh!!!!

 

[jacobeid]

Capcom won't give us Okami but Bethesda who have never supported Nintendo before are going all fucking in.

Bethesda publishing has made some great decisions over the past few years, especially for the gaf crowd. Respect.

 

[KrawlMan]

I wonder how this'll turn out. Good sign for future Switch ports/versions regardless. I'm sure there've been quite a few people on gaf that have claimed that Wolfenstein 2 would never hit Switch because of it's visuals.

I don't own Doom yet, but shooters are just about the only genre I told myself I'd stick to PC on...a bit torn.

 

[The Hermit]

Doom will likely run like shit on Switch but I might get it for the funsies.

The game engine is very good and scalable.

I still can't imagine how it will run.

 

[Ricky 7]

I've been wanting to play Doom but never get time to sit down and play these type of games. I can play these on my commutes, crazy how these current gen games are now portable on such a small handheld.

 

[woopWOOP]

... Huh!
I might actually end up buying DOOM for this thing.
Crazy

 

[JonnyDBrit]

Gyro aiming PLEASE!

Ooooh, this could get interesting. Gyro aiming in a fast paced FPS would be neat to see in action.

 

[DVCY201]

If they run well, I'm all over this. I never picked up DOOM before either, so even better

 

[Blues1990]

nice boxart for the switch version

 

[Ex-Psych]

Guess I'm getting Doom and Wolfenstein for the first time lol

 

[BanjoLayleeYookaKazooie]

Yeah, fuck Capcom. Late ports on Switch isn't actual support. Actual support is late ports, like these!

I mean if Bethesda were able to release DOOM 2016 (wink-wink-nudge-nudge) day and date with the other platforms then they're better than I give them credit for.

Spoiler

Sarcastic comment gets sarcastic response

 

[RadioJoNES64]

I initially thought DOOM looked pretty bad from what they showed, but if they can get it to look like that and keep a consistent frame rate in portable mode then it seems acceptable.

 

[papercan55]

Doom will likely run like shit on Switch but I might get it for the funsies.

It might not, the switch supports Vulkan so i presume it can do a fairly good job.

 

[BizzyBum]

I already beat DOOM on PC but I legit might buy the Switch version just for that bad ass boxart. lol

 

[deleted]

What a cover :O

If they use all the control options of the Switch with Gyro-Aiming and if it's still 60FPS, this here version is getting bought!

Excited to see direct feed footage for both. This will be a Digital Foundry fest, mark my words.

 

[dafortune]

I'll buy Doom and Wolfenstien if they support gyro. My pc cant run those games and I'm not playing that shit dual analog on my ps4 or Switch.

 

[NotLiquid]

The fact that we can get Doom on the Switch almost feels like a challenge for other third parties in the field

One of the best looking games with a megaton of a filesize which was commonly thought to not be possible on the platform turns out to be made with enough care to easily scale to a platform like Switch

Time to start optimizing your games, devs

 

[Jawbreaker]

nice boxart for the switch version

This is the art on the game's cover if you reverse it for the other versions, so it's not new. It's nice that they made it the default side this time, though.

 

[Wet Bloodfart]

And you know it's gonna sell gangbusters only because come holiday Switch will still be a wasteland.

What?

-Zelda
-Mario
-Mario Kart
-Arms
-Splatoon
-Mario and Rabbids
-Skyrim
-Doom
-Xenovlade
-NBA 2k

Among others. That’s an incredible lineup for a first year system during the holidays

 

[Strike]

This is unexpected. Doom doesn't look half bad either.

 

[UnemployedVillain]

Yeah, fuck Capcom. Late ports on Switch isn't actual support. Actual support is late ports, like these!

How are some of you playing Wolfenstein already?!

 

[antispin]

Best news. Best. Now give us a Fallout pack.

Awesome!

 

[wild wild rice]

I do not double dip, but DOOM is like borderline game of the generation for me. Might have to...

I've heard that Doom scales amazingly across hardware.

Yep. They're a pos company.

Bethesda is showing REAL support.

 

[JigglesBunny]

2015 GAF: Nintendo is doomed.
2017 GAF: Nintendo's got Doom!?

 

[M3d10n]

I played through DOOM on the lowest settings at 45-ish FPS on PC. It still looked great.

 

[Muffin1611]

Is it time for the redemption story of the Todd?

 

[DooMAGE]

The feels

 

[goldenpp72]

How are some of you playing Wolfenstein already?!

And why didn't they release Doom on Switch before Switch released?!

 

[Kimawolf]

Oh you know Digital Foundry guys are sharpening their... computers? heh I await the comparison and breakdown myself as well.

 

[Sevyne]

Doom on the go? Sign me the hell up!

 

[IronicSonic]

Guess I'm getting Doom and Wolfenstein for the first time lol

Same

2015 GAF: Nintendo is doomed.
2017 GAF: Nintendo's got Doom!?

9/10

 

[Sarobi]

Doom on Switch? Double Dip confirmed.

 

[Neiteio]

Just checked the DOOM footage. That looked a lot better than I thought it would. Lighting looks flatter but the overall art direction is intact. Models also appear untouched. Good stuff. Wonder if they'll hit 60 fps. Game was super-scalable on PS4, X1 and PC.

 

[Zedark]

2015 GAF: Nintendo is doomed.
2017 GAF: Nintendo's got Doom!?

LMAO awesome!

 

[The Hermit]

60 fps is a must for Doom.

I have faith in the devs, so I shouldn't worry.

GG in making those games work on the Switch, it must be a very hard job.

 

[BFIB]

Buying both. This console is so amazing, I feel I need to buy Mario Rabbids just to support.

 

[Kouriozan]

So much doom talk about Nintendo that they decided to port DOOM, we reached a new meta.

 

[jmizzal]

Why are there people saying Doom looked bad?

It looked pretty good to me in those short clips

 

[10k]

Capcom post if you're ok.

 

[Mutant]

I am excited for the digital foundry video about the Doom port.
