Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Best looking Switch game so far?

HylianSwordsman on 28 April 2019

I feel like BotW takes the cake here, but that's for 1st party and overall. For third party, I'd have to mention the newly released Mortal Kombat. It's just kind of amazing that Switch got that game.

Smash.

Implosion, Manticore, Mario Kart 8, and Octopath are also up there.

I am also a huge fan of Ultra Street Fighter II's new graphics. They blew me away.

What about Mario+Rabbids: Kingdom Battle? In my opinion the Ubisoft Italia's game is, graphically speaking, the most beautiful title on Nintendo Switch.

I wouldn't put it at the top spot myself but it's definitely in my top 10.

I think Mario + Rabbids was Ubisoft Paris... but don't quote me on that.

It was Ubisoft Milan.

In terms of keeping up the resolution at 720p or about less at some points 60fps undocked and looking gorgeous through some trickery and Nintendo Wizardry ...Mario Oddyssey... In terms of looking like a "wow I can't believe I can run this on a portable system"...Hellblade.

Pretty much how I feel; in terms of polished beauty Mario Odyssey, in terms of sheer graphical power, Hellblade.

Honourable mentions in one or both categories go to Fast RMX, Outlast II, Doom 2016, Wolfenstein II, Kingdom Battle, and Yoshi's Crafted World.

Wolfenstein II is the ducks nuts, followed by Doom.
They don't look as impressive as they potentially can due to the lower rendering resolution, but they are still impressive technical achievements all things considered.

Smash takes it for it's stylized approach, it may not be pushing the most effects, but it's overall package is certainly fantastic.

Probably Hellblade Sesuna's Sacrifice. Even after impressive ports like Doom and Wolfenstein I'm still shocked a game that technically demanding runs so well and looks so good on Switch.

As far as first-party games are concerned, probably Mario Odyssey. I don't think that game gets enough credit for how demanding it is.

Big world design too like BOTW or just the art style only?

Yep both. 

Well, then need Monolith Soft again

Depends on what you mean by “best looking.”

Doom and Wolfenstein 2 are both definitely technically impressive, and play GREAT on the Switch, but are also pretty clearly downgraded from WAY more powerful hardware, which can become especially apparent in handheld mode.

I’d say, overall, Super Mario Odyssey looks the best all around, with XC2 being a runner up largely thanks to its performance in console mode.

Agreed on both counts.

With regards to Odyssey, attaining 60fps in an open-ended game is not an easy feat as the developer has a lot less control over what is on screen at any one time versus a more linear game, so hitting that mark in Odyssey's worlds while looking as beautiful as it does is nothing to sniff at.
