Tell me if I'm wrong but isn't there a resolution between 1080 and 4k? Can the console hit that on some games and make a smooth transition to 4k while also updating from 1080p? Perhaps in two-three years we get an scd that makes 4k Nintendo gaming possible? My question is what resolution will PS5 support?

There is indeed an option between FullHD and 4K, usually referred as 1440p (2560x1440), but it's only available on PC monitors as TV manufacturers have skipped it.

 

OT: Since all Nintendo games hit 720p with ease on WiiU and the Switch will be more powerful, there's little reason to doubt that Nintendo can launch all their games at 1080p. Third party games, tho, that's another story.

But, given that the resolution of the Switch screen will be 720p and that we still don't know if the dock does anything besides charging the device and connect it to the TV, it wouldn't suprise me if Switch games on TV were just upscaled to 1080p, not natively rendered at that res.

I searched and found out. Thankyou anyway
