Seeing these problems, albeit on the Team17 developed versions, makes me very worried for the inevitable Switch version.

Not only would it be an undetermined length of time after other versions (Hooray...) but it'll also likely run far worse.

Doubt it, I have faith in Playtonic and Nintendo.

Yea, I don't know. I feel like they'll get the Nintendo version right. Maybe some holdover Banjo-Kazooie magic lol

@BLP_Software The response I got on Twitter leads me to believe this is being handled by Team 17. As long as they can keep a consistent 30 fps I already know the game will look good. Keep the dips to a minimum. The fps will be the make or break.

@Spoony_Tech I think Team17 is doing it to, as you said on Twitter.

Which now makes me wonder what Playtonic are doing.

Then again, Team17 are also the marketing guys and publishers so....

@Pigeon Playtonic has been so tight lip about it no one knows for sure. I personally think they will but they may want to minimize any potential loses by doing eshop only. If this had released the same day as the others I bet it would've done the best on the Switch.

I sure hope they fix the supposed framerate issues Gamexplain mentioned in their review.

Well considering they partially fixed them like days later, I'm gonna assume they will.

I find it hard to believe it won't do semi-well on Switch. It seems like every remotely noteworthy game is doing at least decently on the console, and Yooka Laylee exists mostly because of N64 nostalgia.

Normally I would say true but I already know a lot of people that would've been day one on it if it had released with the others but picked it up on another console instead. How many of those will buy it twice when they most likely already have the better version. I'm holding out because I have no other choice.

@Spoony_Tech Portable version IS the better version. 8)

I've played a bit of it on PC. Gorgeous little game so far. I'm not too far in, but I've seen nothing that throws up any red flags so far.

I agree on the performance: a stable framerate is paramount. I'd be happy with 720p and a locked 30 fps.

I have literally every other system this game is currently out on, but there's no way I would buy this game for any of them. Switch all the way for a Banjo-Kazooie successor, no questions asked.

I picked-up the phyical version of Yooka-Laylee on the PS4 (best version phyical), it also runs at a locked soild 30fps if you was wondering. I believe it was the XboxOne version that had frame-rate issues, but thats been fixed with the camera issues on the latest patch. Oh & it's a lot better than some reviewers make out especially if you like Banjo-Kazooie, you'll love Yooka-Laylee which isn't really surprising considering it's a spiritual successor.

Yea - it sounds like if you're just wanting to play a Banjo-Kazooie game, it's going to be awesome. If you want innovation, not so much.

Man, I'm really excited for this game. Nintendo consoles feel so lacking without 3D platformer.

So I wonder if the delay means this will be the highest rated version of this game.

That'd be kinda funny.

The more and more time goes on with this game the more I'm losing interest. I've also seen a few Banjo fans say it's just not the same. Amazon just had this game on sale for the PS4/X-one and watch, when it releases on the Switch it will also go on sale again.....

...Yeah, almost forgetting about this game...wished they would say something about the Switch version of this game. I get the feeling they're going to delay it even more or something.
