Which is why they always bring up that graphics don't matter when having arguments with other people. Obviously gameplay is king, but they were pretty excited when Metroid Prime Remastered looked like a modern game.
Both extremes are retarded. Aesthetics matter, but those can work or not work regardless of the hardware.
SMB2 technically had new assets but you'd be hard pressed to tell. The All-Stars version still looks better, all things considered.
Gonna get that lol.
So that's the reason the Japanese went with that layout, its a cultural thing. Huh. Fair enough. I've gotten mostly used to it by now, it was just strange going from Xbox for so long, to Nintendo.
Having both is awesome, but given the choice, I'll take a smooth running game any day of the week, old graphics or no. A remaster is nice when they nail it, but many times, it's better just to have the game than risk a fuck up. Also planning on getting MPR, I have a fair few games on my list lol.
I regret my LED "upgrade", it makes the buttons harder to push. I have to get the - button with my fingernail.
This is probably the single worst thing that I've ever seen in my entire life.
No joke, this shit looks like something off of emulator from the 90s
What’s wrong with it?
Maybe the Mario illustration in the background looks a bit off? It's not offensive at a glance though.
Interesting. Considering that the Joy-cons are 80 bucks a pair, and that means a lot to me at this point in my life, I'd rather go after practical, proven upgrades like metal rails and sticks.
Backwards compatibility would mean keeping the same chip port. From what I recall, it took them forever just to bump up the cartridge memory to 64gb. The wii got away with it with game cube games because both were disc based.
I mean on one hand I'm not getting points for beating games, which is a little sad. On the other the Switch is the first console I've had since the Wii WAY back when I was little that doesn't feel like a glorified multimedia player, but a genuine game console you're meant to PLAY with. There's a certain amount of joy I get that just doesn't happen with my Xbox One X.
Yeah, I understand that. Even the Wii sort of felt that way, in fact every system since the PSP has.
It's not that that isn't cool, I absolutely abuse my Xbox One X for blu ray playing and streaming. BUT... I miss the days of just me and my DS lite, playing Lego Star Wars II and Pokemon. No internet, never got the pack that allowed that, so it was completely off the grid. Just me and my games on a system that felt barely more powerful than 1960's NASA flight computers. The Switch has given me that back. Sure it has the Shop but that's all it is. It allows me to focus on gaming and not think " hey, I wanna watch a movie now", completely ruining the session.
