I'm very keen to see Digital Foundry tackle this one.

It's an interesting case as Switch falls partway between 360 and Xbone in terms of power, both of which have versions of Skyrim.

Nice to know Switch can run X360 games.

It can do more than that.

But more importantly, its awesome we have a handheld console that can really deliver home console experiences.

This game is a great way to measure AAA games performance on the Switch. I hope this port become a success.

Is it though? Its a AAA game from several years ago. Yes, it has been remastered for current gen consoles. But, remasters generally don't look as good as current AAA games.

Well, compared to other western third party title available on the Switch, this is AAA for me

A handheld gamer only (for now).

We need docked gameplay for comparison, not portable trailer.

Video is a failure. Uses images from a compressed YouTube trailer against raw images from the xbox one s.

it really is a "just to give an idea" comparison, 200x zoom is a joke, the in-game time is not the same so the lighting and other effects are different, and obviously you must have docked direct gameplay for Switch in order to make a valid comparison

taking all the above into account, final Switch version should look almost the same for someone who doesn't pay attention to insanely little graphical details and effects

don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^
