LA Noire is certainly unique and it'll be rad to play this on the go. Great to hear it's native res in both forms!
I want GTAV so bad on Switch

Very interesting to see a conversion of ps360 game. It may open doors for many last gen ports.

People say unfathomably silly things about the Switch. Of course a 360 remaster will hit 1080p.
LA Noire is a good game, I hope it gets a second life, especially on Switch.
Honestly, GTAV on Switch cannot not make money for Rockstar, they know this, but the desire to port the game remains unknown simply because they have a pending release in RDR2, and the only way I see it happening is to hand it off to the team doing LA Noire. If it has Crossplay with PC though, I'm so in. Just being able to build up my inventory for sales on the weekends would be huge for making cash and the possibility of LAN GTAV anywhere is still one of my favorite features of a Switch version of the game.

I never played this game. I may grab it on Switch.
Feels like this remaster could be another one of those games that sells surprisingly competitively on Switch. I hope so, it'd bode well for future Rockstar support.

Good.
Some people thought because 1080p wasn't mentioned as a bullet point for the Switch version in the first PR weeks ago it would be lower res for some reason. Talk about jump to conclusion when it was clear that they were focusing on the features that made the Switch version stand out, in hat press release.

Never played it. Will be nice to give it a go for a while and then just set it aside whenever I wish. Looking forward to seeing screenshots!

It seems like western third parties are making real efforts when porting games to Switch.
I wonder if the simple architecture of the console is the real helper here.

If this and the inevitable GTAV port do well, can we get San Andreas Stories?

I'd be interested to find out the framerate. IIRC, the PC port was capped at 30 because of something to do with the facial animations not player correctly if you went higher than that. I hope they managed to fix it!

Where is the source for the resolution? The website is pulling this info from thin air, and only links back to the main page for the game (which says nothing about the resolution).

Source? I couldn't find one.

Can someone confirm if Team Bondis old management stand to gain from this or not? I really do not want to reward McNamara for how he ran that team.
2-5 cases (depending on which version you played and which pre-order bonuses you had) sprinkled pretty seamlessly through the story.
GTAV is far too CPU heavy for Switch no?
Also. Would be horrible without analogue triggers. Solvable using the sticks and modifiers though I suppose.

Yeah, I can't imagine the Switch's CPU keeping up with a game that launched on PS3 and 360 at all

Gyro aiming and touch controls (and perhaps both at once if you play with detached Joy-Cons in tabletop undocked) are excellent assurances, signifying to me that whether or not I pick this up, port quality won't be the barrier. This doesn't clarify anything we've already heard, though. Motion aiming is a hard requirement for me and early press materials didn't make it clear if the Joy-Con mode was just a puzzle-specific pointer gimmick (like a TV mode stylus) or a full replacement for stick aiming in the standard dual Joy-Con controller setup. I haven't played the game and don't know how it all works as is.
This is one of the only Rockstar games to interest me and was in fact my theoretical first pick for a port from them anyway. I don't get along with most of Rockstar's output but I've heard good things about the adventure-game elements and the period authenticity of a setting/genre near and dear to my heart. I missed it when it was current and while I doubt I'll have the room in my schedule to justify picking it up at launch, a good Switch port would bump it way up my list of games I'd like to get around to eventually, but didn't actually expect I would. Receiving it with last-generation visuals isn't an issue for me and I mainly want to hear about performance and controls.

GTAV ran on PS3 and XBox 360 so no.
Rocket League doesn't really require lower speeds though. CPU in 360 is surely more powerful than that in Switch.

High price compared to the 4500 yen that the Resident Evil Revelations Collection costs here.

Yeah it better be in 1080p.
Mature and insightful. You do know that Switch is NOT running a full scale Tegra x1?
My god, stop!

Yup, if it doesn't, then that's on the developers really.
Are you really saying the CPU in the NS is weaker than the one in the 360?
