You can compare directly captured screencaps/shots with Mario Kart 8s latest video. Please note that Youtube has atrocious compression that causes severe artifacts and compression blocks which can in some parts of videos lower IQ of footage by two thirds or to put it bluntly the compression decreases quality/detail of taken footage by over 50%. The proof is out there and denial will not make it gone... I am on smartphone so it would be a drag to respond let alone put links and only way I could be throught html editjng which would such a pain... If you resist the truth then it will be such a drag and Beyond 3D is now less in denial about Wij Us capabilities... The misinformation must stop sooner or later. |
That would still be misinformation. As those are guess work at best, just like everything else.
