Again, I am reserving some judgement until we get the final game.

But part of Mario 64 was looking at distant objects in 240p. Mario Sunshine was large in scale at 480p. Then we've got many examples of large scale portable games running at 480p or less.

As a few posts before this mentioned Mario Odyssey used a technique to improve image fidelity while maintaining 60 fps. Shame they didn't offer something like that for Bowser's Fury.

Visibility on big/complex games running at lower resolutions on Switch definitely suffers, I can attest to this from personal experience. I'm just theorizing here, clearly they had the option of going with a low resolution and 60fps, something about the gaming experience they were trying deliver just must've worked better at 720p/30fps.

Given the lack of options we just have to believe Nintendo's vision is best.

My gripe isn't just with Nintendo by the way. I just get annoyed when developers don't give us choices when what we want seems feasible. More games given visual and performance options is a great thing.
