http://i.imgur.com/UCrTCj0.jpg

 

À french journalist from Gamekult reports serious framerate problems for the Wii U versions , basically " physic powers + camera moves = framerate death "

 

He also specifies that the game has a strong aliasing and doesnt make use of thé gamepad.

 

For him, the WiiU version is " unfortunately an Incredible advertising to Switch version "

 

 

Interesting to know before considering the choice of One version or an other.

"Playable" is different for each.  Another review did make a point of saying the Wii U version *was* inferior but still playable. 

But playable or not, yes, the fact that the Switch even in handheld mode outperforms the Wii U version is a very good look for the Switch. 

But that's no different than the numerous performance issues in The Last of Us on PS3 ultimately proved very good for the PS4 version of the game as it was very often pointed out how big of a jump it was from one version of an amazing game to another version of an amazing game.  This isn't news for a crossgen game :P

Now I'm concerned. As someone who is going to get the Wii U version, I don't want to put up with shit framerate. Honestly, I've been worried since the footage shown off at The Game Awards. Looked really poor.



bet: lost

If you plan to buy à Switch in à near futur id advise you to wait, at least to see other WiiU reviews
