glad they managed to get it up to 900p when all earlier builds were only 720p
900p is dissapointing but at least it's 60 fps.
I never understood people who felt like they could have a platform game spoiled for them.
it's almost October!
I'm pretty sure there is some form of AA.Yeah, or at least some form AA.
Summary:
- 900p/60fps in docked (NO dynamic res)
-720p/60fps in undocked (NO dynamic res)
- Cutscenes in portable mode have the horizontal resolution halved, so cutscenes run at 640px720p (no mention about the same for docked mode)
-Snapshot mode runs at 30fps, but adds AA, expands geometry quality, and improves texture filtering
- Lower res lighting buffer in portable mode
- Shadows in portable mode are lower quality than in docked mode
- The game feels like a game made specifically for the Switch, rather than a transferred Wii U project (jab at Splatoon 2?)
According to old leaks by Laura Kate Dale or Emily Rogers, it is actually a transferred Wii U project. Who knows how accurate these leaks are though.

In what way? Are there really people still expecting 1080p out of the Switch at this point?

To be fair is in the minority of Nintendo developed games that don't hit 1080p 60fps, I can only think of BotW.
According to wrong (and old) "leaks" the game should have been a launchtitle too and not BotWAccording to old leaks by Laura Kate Dale or Emily Rogers, it is actually a transferred Wii U project. Who knows how accurate these leaks are though.
Any type of travel-adventure game is going to have a lot of people that enjoy being surprised at the locations and sites you end up visiting. I don't think it is that different from people spoilering some of the more arresting locations/views in Dark Souls 3. Different strokes for different folks.
But if they're on blackout, then they really should know better than to wander into any thread for the game, because they should know they are in the minority.

I think it's okay for people to try to read about a game's performance and visuals without being spoiled on locations.
It was an easy guess, due to past releases.Time to see if my 900p pixel count was correct.
Edit: It sure was.
Unfortunately, we'll be saying "it's almost November!" before we actually get to play it.
Considering how dated the graphics look technically, I would hope it would at least be 1080p60.
Not thrilled but I can definitely life with 900p60
Can't wait.
Base ps4 and Xbox one were struggling with 1080 p 60fps games, they hardly hit that. I remember Xbox being 900 p many times, and ps4 hitting 30fps
If anything I'm glad it's 60 fps for Mario.
Game looks beautiful, and the art style really helps
Not dated at all.
Should be. Puts the game on par (in terms of pixels per second) with BF4, BF Hardlines, SW Battlefront, Mirrors Edge Catalyst, Tekken 7, Uncharted 4 Multi and Nier Automata on base PS4. And that's not counting games with dynamic resolutions that can drops below 900p or games running at an inferior 900p30.
Of course those games all push a higher graphical fidelity than SMO, but given the performance gap between the two systems keeping up in that regard is good enough.
But it is done by videos. They inherently spoil stuff. Digital Foundry shows stuff to demonstrate the tech. It isn't just footage of them talking at the camera.
I didn't know these existed! This is a great idea, thanks.
No AA is disgusting!

Well, the OP claims that there's no AA, but that's wrong.
- locked 60 fps docked and portable
There is definitely some sort of AA applied. Game looks not as jaggy as MK8 for example outside of New Donk (which has very noticably AA turned off).
This. Either people aren't actually looking at the video, or they can't tell the difference between the two, in which case they are complaining for nothing.
I watched the whole video and don't remember ever saying no AA, not sure why it's in OP.
