Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii U games to run at 720p, 30 fps.

Some exceptions (Pikmin is 60fps)

http://wiiudaily.com/2012/06/wii-u-games-run-in-720p/

From article:

"While the Wii U technically supports 1080p resolution, current Wii U games only run in 720p, Wii U Daily can confirm. Yesterday, Nintendo released screenshots of New Super Mario Bros U, which were in the native resolution of 720p. So were the screenshots of ZombiU and Project P-100. We initially thought that those were simply the 720p versions of the game and that 1080p would be available. But as it turns out, all of Nintendo’s upcoming first party Wii U titles will be in 720p.

Speaking to a Nintendo representative on the E3 show floor today, I was told that all of the playable Wii U games at E3 will ship with native 720p support, including Nintendo Land, New Super Mario Bros, and Pikmin 3. However, the representative said that some of those titles, like Pikmin 3, will run at 60 frames per second. The representative couldn’t confirm whether the games can be upscaled to 1080p, only that the “native resolution is 720p for all titles showcased”.

The Wii U hardware is still very new and it’s likely that it’ll take developers some time before they can push it to its full potential. But for now, it seems that Nintendo and its first party Wii U games will be sticking to 720p."

 

Thoughts?

It's launch. People won't be pushing 1080p as a standard for another couple years.......

considering how a lot of current "HD" consoles don't even have the power to render a lot of games at native 720p res, I'd say that's at least some improvement...............

Right, as long as they are indeed a hard 720p, this isn't so bad.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Bummer. But maybe it's a good thing. Next gen multiplatforms are 720p on the Wii U and 1080p on PS4 and 720.

Not all WiiU games are 720p though, tekken tag 2 apparently goes under 720P.



Ouch, that's kind of disappointing. After getting a gaming PC, I'm really starting to love 60fps as well.



These are the new numbers then

Teraflops are old shit
