If this is a 60$ release, I am sorry, but it is unacceptable in this stage. Looking at the DF video it became painfully obvious that it's a cash grab on Monolith's side. I am really sorry, but X2 looks poor and they should have taken their time to figure it out how to "remaster" a 2010 Wii game for it to run at 30FPS locked at 1080p docked mode and 720p handheld mode...

It doesn't even need to be 1080P and 720P.

1600x900@Docked and 1138x640@Portable respectively is perfectly adequate, even lower than that if they employ decent Anti-Aliasing and upscaling.

Depending on the complexity of the visuals (I.E. Low Geometry thus less pixel crawl), even 1280x720@Docked and 853x480@Portable is fine.

We need to keep in mind this is a Nintendo platform, the expectation that games on a Nintendo platform are going to chase industry standards in terms of resolution/framerates/graphics effects has been out of the window for almost 15 years now... And that is okay. What is important is "good enough".
