So as expected, the kind of barebones spit-and-polish seen in HD remasters like MH3U on Wii U and the console version of RE Revelations, where image quality is cleaned up but the game still looks extremely simplistic and dated.

Hopefully XX is the dying gasp of the 3DS era of Monster Hunter. The series has been held back for far too long.

Curl is probably not satisfied with this upgrade :P

Gee, there's a bold prediction. :P Naturally I'm not, the system is capable of graphics superior to PS3/360/Wii U, and this looks like an up-res'd Gamecube game.

Reminder

These are from PS3 Japanese games.

Still looks better than XX. Meanwhile, here are some of the graphics achieved on hardware weaker than Switch:

Guys it's a 3DS game in HD. Considering they want to support cross-play I don't even know what else they could do with it. Doubt they could change any geometry.

lmao, WhiteKnight chronicles+Tales of Zestiria and 100 more Japanese PS3 games not even better than MHXX in term of texture works and animation works

oh great no we are comparing between AAA western games to a Japanese game but nice to the changes in the narrative from PS2-like into PS3 AAA Western-like graphics

Don't see what Japanese/Western has to do with it, plenty of great looking games come out of Japan.

Heck, even Capcom's own Dragon's Dogma on PS3/360 slaughters XX graphically.

You don't need a big budget to make a Switch game look massively better than XX. And Monster Hunter sells well enough that it can justify a decent budget anyway, it routinely clears the 3 million mark. There is no excuse for the garbage-tier production values on display in XX.

Did you really think capcom is channelling all the sales profit from MH series into the MH series itself? Dragon's dogma with AAA budget failed to meet capcom expactation they created that bomba by using the Monster hunter's series profit sales and they bought 2 buildings with Monster hunter 4 profit sales to expand mobile game division. 

 

Monster Hunter budget is tiny compared to other capcom games like SF, DD and RE and yet the MH graphics on 3ds still looks better than 100 ps3 jrpgs

MH sells enough to justify production values that aren't 2-3 generations out of date. There are Dreamcast games that look better than MH 3DS.

then show me which action/advanture games on dreamcast has better animation works, model polycounts, physics, effects and etc better than MH on 3ds with 240p resolution.

FYI this is how MH look on 3ds with 240p resolution vs Phantasy star online dreamcast

vs

 

 

graphical quality alone MHX is superior than any action/adenture dreamcast games now with animation works and combat physics, oh boy
