I came in here looking for drama on the comments, and it did not disappoint.

I'm asking if those screenshots are true or manipulated to look bad. Because they seriously look bad.

So weird that people are acting as if they have played the final game, when the primary goal of this test fire is testing the net code. Also when we know that the system can run MK8 Deluxe in 1080p 60fps, why is it that people are acting as if that game doesn't exist and Splatoon 2 is suddenly the measurement of what the system is capable of...

"Underpowered." There is not a device today with a formfactor like this that is as powerful as this. It is anything but underpowered. That's like calling an iPad underpowered and then comparing it to gaming rigs.

How do you come to the conclusion (you cite yourself in the other forum, you making the conclusion) as this screenshot is 720p. I get that the screenshots probably are scaled, so how do you conclude this?

Yeah, because they killed your dog.

Whatever, I see sour grapes as some people are whining they don't getting the Nintendo-gameplay and pick on other stuff. You could just go play your graphics demo.

Luckily the world is a lot bigger than Japan and has a device called a pc and to lesser extent a PS4(pro). But if Japan thinks this is the best game available on their market noone is stopping the to buy it I guess. It doesn't look all that great to me though.

Sigh. These type of threads are getting tiresome. Post asceenshot so everybody can shit on the game. Nice.
Thank god I don't care about shit like that so I can actually enjoy the games. Both those screenshots look fine to me.
It's a portable-sacrifices had to be made and it's still amazing. If you don't like portables than you have no business complaining abou the switch-stick to your PS4/pc

Really hoping that it will get improved by the time it launches cause it really doesn't look very different than the WiiU version so it running at that resolution is just odd

According to Digital Foundry, Splatoon 2 was 720/60 in both modes back in January. I don't see why this would go down.
