PS4

Switch

PS4/Switch, showing lower polygon counts:

 

[PorygonVandal]

So a game running on inferior hardware is downgraded?

Dang!

 

[Dr_LucienSanchez]

Well, yeah. Kind of makes sense considering the specs.

 

[Ibuki]

Did anyone think this wasn't going to be the case?

 

[James Scott]

It's not finished yet, but yeah. Switch, the portable home console, isn't as powerful as PS4 in case anyone missed that news

 

[Hugstable]

Surprise!

 

[BY2K]

SHOCKING

 

[CronoShot]

You don't say

 

[Richie]

Necessary sacrifices of portable gaming, place where it will look great anyway.

 

[The End]

can we get a Switch vs. PS3 comparison

 

[Megatron]

Did anyone think this wasn't going to be the case?

Dq heroes is hardly a graphical showcase. That screen is much more prominent than I would expect.

 

[PSFan]

Glad I'm still getting the PS4 version then.

 

[Ray Down]

Sad !

 

[Arzehn]

The downgrade that matters is that it's 60FPS on PS4 and 30FPS on the Switch.

 

[onemanasylum]

Well DUH, it is far weaker. This will be the norm.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Not terribly surprising. No way the hardware in a tablet is going to stack up to what's in the Playstation 4.

 

[Skittzo0413]

So basically fewer particle and lighting effects? Sounds about right.

 

[purseowner]

Water is wet.

Slimes are slimy.

 

[Newtype-001]

Expect nothing less

 

[Max_Po]

Glad I'm still getting the PS4 version then.

It should have been obvious since the start.

 

[Ray Down]

The downgrade that matters is that it's 60FPS on PS4 and 30FPS on the Switch.

Frame rate doesn't look stable from the footage I've seen.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

The downgrade that matters is that it's 60FPS on PS4 and 30FPS on the Switch.

And looks worse too? Lol

 

[Skittzo0413]

Water is wet.

Slimes are slimy.

Except metal slimes...

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

I hope we won't have to do this every time there's a PS4/Switch game even if those will be few and far between.

 

[Aostia]

Already discussed in its topic btw
Some footage is better than other, it seems in between PS3 and ps4 version (as expected)
Waiting for actual news on EU release and frame rate performance before deciding between ps4 two games I still have to buy or the double pack
The video of the live event played in multiplayer was pretty good

 

[Kyari]

That game came out on PS3, so its likely going to be punching similar to that in terms of how it looks on Switch.

 

[Jeels]

I just don't see many instances where I'll be choosing to get my multiplats on the Switch. :/

 

[TheMoon]

We're gonna have this kind of thread for every game, aren't we?

 

[Kyou]

 

[Ibuki]

Dq heroes is hardly a graphical showcase. That screen is much more prominent than I would expect.

So yes, one person is surprised.

 

[fernoca]

SHOCKING NEWS

Still, this is the version I might get, as it has both games.

 

[Branduil]

This is going to be the case for literally every single game that's on both systems.

 

[Shizuka]

They do have to fit both games in one card, too.

 

[Chanser]

No brainer.

 

[Shikoba]

Is there any difference between switch on the go and switch in the dock for this game?

 

[guek]

when is this coming out?

 

[LordKano]

Frame rate doesn't look stable from the footage I've seen.

Eh the framerate in the multiplayer footage (from a stream) didn't look that bad. It clearly wasn't 60fps but it looked playable enough (for those interested in a portable version ofc), especially considering it's a rushed port for japanese launch.

 

[_Ryo_]

Makes sense. I wonder if DQXI on Switch will have such a prominent visual downgrade.

 

[Alienous]

A handheld is a handheld, even if you can dock it.

 

[Acquiescence]

The Switch is still going to dominate the PS4 in Japan in terms of sales though.

 

[RedEther]

Switch version looks terrible

 

[brawly]

The downgrade that matters is that it's 60FPS on PS4 and 30FPS on the Switch.

So worse framerate, IQ and resolution? wow

 

[Blobbers]

I guess you could say there's a particle of the game missing

 

[platina]

Damn what a difference for a new console.

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

Are you serious?!

 

[bobbychalkers]

Spoiler alert, the PS4 version will always come out on top. With that said, portability is a nice thing to have for a game like this.

 

[Chubzdoomer]

Wii U 2.0

 

[Kathian]

Horror.

 

[Teletraan1]

Moar liek Bait and Switch.

 

[Rncewind]

Well OP i hope you are ready but on a technical level the switch is on 360/ps3/wiiu level



So yes if there is a port it gonna look like last gen and many games are not gonna have a port at all
