| ToxicJosh said: I don't think it's accurate to say that we knew that. We were hoping for it, and assumed it was because of the screenshots, but a lot of people made the same assumption with MK8. So it's still good to have it confirmed. |
At E3 2013, Eurogamer said Nintendo confirmed the game is 1080p. Eurogamer also said Mario Kart 8 was 1080p, but we didn't know the truth of that until long after E3 2013. And anyway, the Mario Kart 8 thing was always sketchy. Eurogamer just dropped it into one of their articles like it was no big deal, then in a later article used as a source a seperate site which was using their earlier article as a source. It's a complete mess, an absolute failure of basic journalism.
I've felt that the writing was on the wall for Smash to be 1080p for a long time. I didn't doubt it. And I never believed that Mario Kart was 1080.
