There's definitely something going on with the character models in general. I remember seeing something similar on Sylux in the previous trailer.You can easily see the polygons in the hand and low res textures. Looks like the Switch 1 really held the Switch 2 version back.

I know 4 million is a low bar for Nintendo games, but I hope MP4 can break it for selfish reasons (so they won't abandon the series again).
How can you say this looks UGLY.
And it was made with OG Switch in mind.

1 million per a Prime seems reasonable, right?

Samus is actually C3PO?! What a twist.You can easily see the polygons in the hand and low res textures. Looks like the Switch 1 really held the Switch 2 version back.

The Switch 2 version is going to look pretty awesome on an OLED TV.

It's the same game game with either better textures at 4k or just the same game at 120fps. Also allows you to play with mouse mode on NS2. That's about it.
They had to make an open zone for Switch 1 that runs at 60fps since Metroid Prime is a 60fps series. And that's what they had to work with for the Switch 2 version. That's why motocyle segment looks rough.
I really hope the game delivers and I'm open about the open part despite looking straight out of another, lesser, game. I have faith in Retro and it seems they are either keeping a lot under they sleeve or the game is a really weird dud. But, as I said, I trust them. It would be outrageous if Nintendo released a dissapointing game after restarting its development over quality issues.

Why get a Sony Bravia 8 II over an LG G5? Genuinely curious.I just ordered a new 65" Sony Bravia 8 II to replace my old lg oled and another set of Bose wireless speakers to fill out my surround sound just for this game.

Better picture and color accuracy.

are dimming zones better too? I have an LG with NanoCell and I hate it.

oled doesn't have dimming zones. that is only for LCD tvs.

Look at the sharp rounded edges on the hand is what they mean. if it was just a switch 2 game it probably would look better. But the game was announced "first iteration" in some form in 2017 so it was always going to be based on switch 1 performance. It doesn't really matter to me, as long as it runs smoothly l'm good.It's a suit.

That's not zoomed in (by me). It's just a regular cutscene from the game.
Around 1:30.

I was so hyped for this game 2 years ago. Now it's just down to meh. Too many other good games to play to shoehorn this in, just because it's Metroid. It hurts to say that, but Nintendo is dead to me now. See y'all on the flipitty.

You can't shoot in morphball and traveling long distance in that mode is not a good idea.

Maybe Samus didn't want to get dizzy

Oh, I'm definitely not. That's just how it looks, I'm not sure why close-ups of the character models get that way.
Almost looks like the same thing that happens close-up in Mario Kart World:

Just want to see it at a scorching 120 fps.

Shit I forgot this was so soon. Time flies.
Still really hope they have some aces up their sleeves and this is a homerun. I love this series and just want a great new entry no matter how I feel about it now. Please pull a Silent Hill 2 Remake

I will opt for the 4K 60fps mode. Both modes should be pretty sweet.

It has the same drawback as in docked mode (lower res). But I guess the resolution dip might not be as noticeable on the smaller screen.
Docked: 4K 60 fps HDR
Docked: 1080p 120 fps HDR
Handheld: 1080p 60 fps HDR
Handheld: 720p 120 fps HDR

I don't know why I thought portable mode was 60FPS 1080p HDR and 120FPS 1080p no HDR. 720p makes much more sense. Thanks

As I'll wait for the next Zelda, Mario and possibly Animal Crossing and the revised version before getting a Sw2, I'm probably picking this up for my Sw1. It's going to be a nice swansong for it.I'm probably gonna wait for the next zelda to buy a sw2 so i'm probably gonna wait to play this one until then.
It already look pretty shitty graphic wise so i can't even imagine how bad it's look on sw1

can the switch output at 120FPS to tv? didn't Nintendo change it or something?

Afaik it can do 120FPS in any mode. VRR on the other hand is handheld exclusive.
Robb

Yes, as long as you have av display that supports it. I think you're thinking of VRR.

I'm definitely checking out both, but I want to run my screen AND my TV at 120 just to see it.
