he's wrong

Like Nintendo was wrong to not have disc for the N64
To not have online and media capabilities on the NGC
To not have HD on Wii
Etc etc

Nintendo doesn't understand that consoles are one of the biggest way to spread new technologies, they need to be ahead of the curve, not behind.

Kotaku actually did a poll, and 40% of the people answering to the poll said they own a 4K TV. And 48%those who said they didn't said they'll proably get one in the coming year. https://www.kotaku.com.au/2017/06/do-you-own-a-4k-tv/

So right now the market is shifting heavily from HD to UHD, all those PS4pro and Xbox One X are going to help sell a lot of 4K TVs. It's going really fast, and the Switch, is already way behind when it comes to being a proper home console.  It will still be a good handheld in a year or two, but it will be completely outdated as a home system, and third party support is going to be non-existent.

That's the reality, and I hope Nintendo one day stop being such a dumbass, and makes a decent home console again.

HD. Aka. High Definition. = 720P.
Full/F HD aka. Full High Definition. = 1080P.

Nintendo is lacking in resolution. Which is par-the-course for over a decade/3 Home Consoles and several handhelds.

Titanfall 2 is just terrible optimization. And yet... Even when it drops to 480P it still gives any Switch game a run for it's money graphically.

However. You are correct. The Xbox One and Playstation 4 suffer from sub-par output resolutions as they fail to gaurentee 1080P. - And I have ridiculed them completely for that aspect for years now.

But just because the base Xbox One and Playstation 4 consoles are shit at obtaining 1080P doesn't mean Nintendo should get a pass.

HD, High Defiinition is also a marketing gimmick.

Everything is, it's all products, and it's just names, at the time 1080p was the best we could do, it was the top quality, so they named it full.

And to be honest, 720p has always been a little wonky, whereas 1080p is where it really starts to be high quality.

especially when their new system comes out 3 and half years after.

I'm all for a more a higher resolution experience as long as the hardware can handle it and there are no sacrifices. But if I can play PS3 games at 720p, I can play switch games on 720p as well. Again, it doesn't mean I'd wouldn't prefer a higher resolution, But I'll gladly play Mario Odyssey in 720p.

As it was once for 1080p

It's certainly a marketing term. A gimmick it is not. It's actually usefull. And it doesn't mean it's a useless term either. A Full HD display represents a display that is superior to a HD display in terms of resolution.

Also. We could actually exceed 1080P back when 1080P wen't mainstream. Professional markets had 4k displays as far back as 2003 with some NEC panels, they actually had to run two 1080P inputs via DVI to the display, each rendering 1920x1080 in Portrait.

Also... We had 1080P CRT monitors back when console gamers were still stuck on 240P consoles during the Playstation 1/Nintendo 64 era.

And during the Playstation 2 era the PC was starting to dabble in Tessellation. A technique we wouldn't see in full force untill this console generation.

I'm talking titles in general.  over the last couple of years they've struggled with 1080p. 4k will have to wait quite a while with Nintendo. 

I don't know why he's talking as if they could have focused on it. Not if they wanted to focus on being able to go mobile with their device, they couldn't. And if they stick with mobile/HH gaming, which I think they should since it is where their strengths lie, I think they have at least 2 or 3 more systems to go before they can even think about 4K gaming with graphics better than the Switch.

Well right now, 4K wouldn't work with what Nintendo wanted to do with the Switch, at least with the tech we have now and at the price it's at. It would burn out completely as a console with the ability to be played on the TV and on the go.
