Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Digital Foundry vs FIFA on Switch

Just got my copy today. It plays very much like the pre frostbite games. I rather enjoy the title but it is nothing on the PS4 game and honestly, portability will not save it in my eyes. Still, I think I will get my money's worth out of the title.

Looks like a decent upgrade from last gen. The characters look incredible for a portable device. Now I want to see a comparison with the Vita legacy version.

how is it a half-assed port?

Matches don't play like in the current gen releases, can say it's not even comparable to last gen versions in a few regards, it's also missing content in FUT, can't play with friends online...I can give you half-assed isn't the proper term if you want, but I think it should closely resemble the major versions. 

I completly agree. The problems are not the graphics

Just saying with the exception of the Japanese store you can see that Fifa is competing in sales numbers against very popular games and against titles which cost €7-15 so just in terms of how much income EA are getting from Switch owners, I'd be confident that they'll be happy with how the port goes considering the DF video suggests a port which wouldn't have consumed a huge amount to create for the little console.

Given that Vita will be below PS3/360 which in turn fall notably short of Switch, we're looking at a fairly sizeable graphical leap for portable FIFA.
