Why no down sampling from a higher resolution in portable mode ?

Honestly, a lot of the work that was done is nice but what hurts this is the same thing that hurt Twilight Princess HD: geometry. A few things have been fixed up but most of the geometry is identical, which really limits how good the new textures can look. If they had taken the time to improve polygonal complexity of scenes and levels, the game would look twice as good. And if they claim they didn't for crossplay parity with the 3DS, imo forget that. If this is going to be the Switch's monhun for now, push it as that.

From this video, its evident the Switch is just slightly more powerful than the 3DS.
