720p, upscaled to 1080p, drops down to 30FPS in an unnoticeable amount of time?! Drop to 40 on Metacritic confirmed.

Dooooooooom!   

Clearly it is. 

The 250k+ people who pre-ordered it in the USA just canceled it! 

Wii U selling 10k first week confirmed.

All the reviewers are turning in new reviews!  All of them 5 points lower.  

It is over folks!  The game is done.  

 

Seriously though, it's not that big of a deal. 

And this really didn't need a thread.  

Anti-Gravity or the graphics can't save it, it shall be Nintendo's lowest scoring game ever! All the current Wii U owners will return their Wii U's in disgust of 720p, 59fps, and awesome graphics!



Good on Nintendo for not succumbing to graphic whores. 720p is fine. No AA is fine. The game looks amazing, sounds amazing, feels amazing, and most importantly it runs amazing.



What I find interesting is the "59 fps" false argument that people keep mentioning. The thing is, no one is claiming that 59 fps is a problem. Rather, it's the duplicate frame that people are questioning. I mean, I know why people create false arguments, but doesn't that practice annoy anyone else? At least be honest about the argument you're disagreeing with.

Also, wasn't it a Nintendo fan who made that thread and tried to turn it into a big deal by picking out a minor complaint in an article with a lot of positive comments?

I was gonna buy it on the U, but am not going to buy it anymore now.

Am I a whore?

Yep.

racing against ai is 59 fps. not that far from 60. And pc's can do 4k 60fps so if youre buying a console for power, get over yourself





One thing I hope at these events there holding there supplying controller pro's and not just Wiimotes for people to play with, although I enjoyed the motion controls on Wii I think still think this will cause confusion and also think Wiimotes have a bad reputation amongst the casual crowd for having to constantly replace the battery's. I feel if you give someone a standard gamepad to play with they would be more inclined to buy the system,
