Oh thank god. I'm okay with BotW at 900 since it's a big game. I hope Mario is 1080. The trailer graphics indicate it could be.

Not even 1080p
Disgusting.
720p undocked should be okay though since the screen itself is 720p. There shouldn't be much jaggies when playing on the go.
3 hour expected battery life tho. Damn that sucks.

I have said it for generations and here we are again...
The great artwork and visuals in al of these games are let down by being low res, lacking anti-aliasing etc.
Sure they still look very good, but it's such a disappointment.

Give it a year and it'll start pushing for 720p...
720p in handheld mode, as predicted. I'm ok with this.
Also, here's some wallpaper material to spice things up.
There, I fixed that for you.

No, a lot higher actually.
I'm just surprised that people seem to expect more when the specs for this thing have been known for awhile.
If people are expecting 4K then they need to pull there head out of the clouds.

The Xbox One runs 360 ports at 1080p most of the time.
It's not necessarily odd. Other factors like memory bandwidth play a role as well. They do not increase as much in docked mode.
And who knows, maybe the game isn't perfectly locked at 30fps in portable mode, while docked mode at 900p is.
holy shit this looks bad in screenshotsno way mario is 1080 native
Is anyone expecting 4K?

People were expecting 1080p on a 1080p console. Particularly since it's a cross gen title.
I'm sure everyone was expecting it to be 4k. Got em coach.
no way mario is 1080 native
much jaggies

Lol 900p what a joke. I dont mind a 720p screen because can you imagine what battery life we'd get if it had a 1080p screen? But it should be able to do 1080p when docked. This is ridiculous.

Sub-1080p gaming in 2017. Yep, it's a Nintendo system alright.
I don't know.

Not acceptable imo
Yeah, you could see the jaggies in most gameplay footage shown today. Even through the stream.

Characters were also running at a pretty low framerate in the background.
Switch is totally a underpowered device.
I was hoping I was looking at video compression but honestly this looks like sub-1080, as opposed to what compressed 1080 looks like.
So it can do 1080p no problem but their two hit first party launches are not. lol

What does that even mean? 1080p of what? Retail games, indies or movies streaming?

So a decade after 1080p tv's launch and with everyone else racing to support 4k, Nintendo still can't even make 1080p on their main launch title that's being up-ported from a console with hardware that is years old. I just don't even understand them. Is this a developer issue or Japan in general? I am at a loss to explain this.
Depends how you look at it. The entire console is in the tablet, which appears to be lightweight. Thats not underpowered.
That and not having to buy a Wii U

Probably not. What makes you say that?

I was actually expecting 720p in both modes, so this is a nice surprise. The trailer was running at 30fps, but unlike the Wii U trailers, it didn't seem to dip below that at all from what I could tell.
This. Cemu save us lol

my bare minimum expectations of a $300 platform in 2017
I laughed. Nintendo really should be embarrassed. Well, at least the execs...Zelda and Mario teams are probably annoyed that they can't work on better hardware.

Aaron Greenberg quote here
Mario is also 99.9% chance going to be 60fps.

I'm wondering how many people are going to follow this strategy. I'm tempted to do it myself. It's tough to justify spending $300 on a system for one big launch game that's coming out for the Wii U on the same exact day.
