That was DF's initial finding but they posted an update shortly afterwards:

Wrong, we are talking console generation 7, PC is not part of any generation.

Read the post topic before commenting, no one asked best graphics on individual console..

Switch far more capable than wiiU? Not really, its only slightly more capable, just like the wii was only slightly more capable than gamecube, not the huge difference we got from wii to Wii U or ps3 to ps4.

The switch came 3 years after the ps4, it still is not nearly as powerful, if you compare side by side witcher 3, its like a different game altogether.

PC has generations, it has hardware generations.

It's usually easy to pick out the lines between PC generations too, usually depicted by fundamental shifts in rendering techniques... Which are usually aligned with console technology.

PC had a fixed function pipeline era... Aka. Hardware Transform and Lighting which aligns to the Nintendo 64 and Playstation 1.

The rudimentary pixel shading era... Aka. Shader Model 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4. - Which aligns with the Playstation 2, Gamecube and Original Xbox.

The programmable Pixel Shading era (Shader Model 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0b, 3.0), hardware instancing and so forth. - Which aligns with the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.

Then you have the Geometry Units and Universal Shader era (Shader Model 4.0, 4.1 and 5.0) - Which aligns with the Xbox One and Playstation 4.

And the next console generation aligns with the Ray Tracing Era.

It was pretty damn obvious when there was a heading for each platform for people to list the best graphics for each individual device.

The Switch is not only running Wii U games at a higher resolution, but also at a higher framerate and sometimes with better visuals. - And those are the lazy ports like Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart and so forth.

The Switch is also pushing games like the Witcher 3, Doom 2016, Wolfenstein which would have been impossible on the Wii U due to the lack of DRAM.

Games like Links Awakening is showing us what the nVidia Maxwell chip can do when it comes to material shaders... Not to mention the GPU is a far more efficient beast with technologies like delta colour compression which bolsters bandwidth far more than the raw numbers would otherwise imply.

Is the Switch anywhere near an Xbox One? Shit no. No one claims that, but it's certainly a step up over the Wii U.... I have a Wii U and Switch (plus Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One X, Playstation 2, Playstation 4, multiple PC's and so forth) so I can make the direct comparisons in real time.

Yeah Witcher 3 is a remarkable port, and a great example of a game that simply wouldn't have been possible on Wii U.

And yeah, art goes a lot further than raw technical grunt for me too; I still reckon Muramasa on Wii is one the most beautiful games I've ever laid eyes on.

As I read his comment earlier, I thought “You don’t know what you’re getting into if you start talking out of your ass about hardware with Pema.”

I also just read a press release from an id Software dev regarding Doom: Eternal for Switch. He is apparently quite impressed with the work Panic Button did on making it look and run as well as possible on Switch, so I'm happy about that.

Are you guys serious? I love Nintendo, but wii games being in top graphically? They look beyond horrible, jaggies everywhere, bad textures, 480i resolution, which can be updated to 480p if you buy the cable for it, still very far from the typical 640p-720p last generation.

Mario galaxy looked decent, I still love it, but nothing like when Nintendo came with Mario 64 and it was a graphical marvel compared to the ps1, or even the gamecube when it had Mario sunshine and luigi mansion and graphics were really great compared to the ps2.

I don't think Nintendo will ever again be on top of graphics with their new approach. But I thought that's what people want, portability instead of graphics.

With that said the wiiU was the first time I saw beautiful graphics from Nintendo on an HD TV. Games like pikmin 3, Mario 3d, wonderful 101 all look amazing, but then again breath of the wild looks horrible with jaggies being very noticeable. The switch has even less of a chance because even tough its barely any more powerful than a wiiU (which was several times less powerful than ps4), now it competes with xbox X graphics and soon with ps5 graphics, so Nintendo wont even compete in graphics for the foreseeable future.

Which one of us said that Wii games were top graphically? I believe what it said is that the game The Conduit PUSHED THE WII in terms of graphics. Also, there are some surprisingly good looking Nintendo games out there like you mentioned. Nintendo is good at taking a very limited system and pushing that system graphically.
