table games that are available for free on any smartphone are being sold by Nintendo for Switch for 40 bucks? Nice business they have.

If it really includes all DLCs, it sounds like a good deal.

I judge by the fact that XC2 looked absolutely terrible in handheld mode (google for screenshots) and there doesn't seem to be any improvement compared to a 3 yr old game. Numbers don't lie, as the great Scott Steiner said.

I also judge by the fact that other nintendo first party titles are running in more-or-less stable 720p handheld and 1080p docked. Xenoblade is not a photorealistic game, so with examples of much better performance on the same hardware I come to a conclusion that it's possible to achieve better performance, it it was not done for some reason.

I know that numbers don't matter in general, but damn, when I played it in handheld it looked so ugly, that I decided to wait til I come back home to complete the game on my tv, instead of enjoying it anywhere as it was advertised.

@mazzel So in your opinion 378p on an 8th generation console is absolutely ok, right?

What I mean is that they shd have some respect for the fans. We all know that the game is great, but it's not ok to play the game 'despite its technical issues' in 2020. If you ask the full price for a 10 years old game - please, make sure it works fine.

If it's really true, it's such a shame. People can say all they want about "gameplay being more important than polygons", but it's unforgivable to release a game with such resolution drops in 2020! Ok, the XC2 was their first attempt, and they had 3 years at least to optimize an engine! With BotW running in Full HD I can't believe that the Switch can't handle higher resolution, it's a matter of optimization.

Ok, in docked it looks fine, but the handheld performance is pathetic. Basically it runs in a lower resolution that the original wii game sometimes.

It's ridiculous and it's a shame because these games are great!
