    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Sorry, was busy finally getting some Mario time in on the 64" after playing on the handheld for the past few days. Just like Zelda, it looks drastically better on the TV despite those pesky basketball sized pixels. Imagine my total lack of surprise. And I will never pay for a Monopoly video...

    You actually have the option of IMAX without 3D? If so, you suck.

    Super Mario Odyssey

    The cap system is fantastic. Tearing through a busy area by comboing your cap across multiple enemies in one fluid streak is just pure Mario goodness.

    Super Mario Odyssey

    I'm actually quite content with the fact that the Switch's library but for a handful of bright spots is largely a wasteland. Maybe I'll actually finish up the games I want to play before it's two console generations later. For the whiners who want a lot more, I totally used to be you, but now...

    Well that was disappointing. 3 Worfs for effort. 6.5 Picards on execution.

    Lol, the fact that you are in disagreement with my reason for posting the graph puts you at odds with your buddy Rafterman, who claimed that Zelda looks better at 720p handheld than at 900p on a large screen, which means that perceived resolution changes based on screen size versus distance...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Claiming that someone "handled my sorry ass" when that someone is clearly challenged in reading comprehension and in following basic, simple conversational progression isn't doing any favors for your side. And in an appropriately related topic, I not only mentioned in the same fucking sentence...

    Jesus Christ. If this keeps up I'm going to start another tedious argument about pixel density. Watch your asses.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    It started because you responded to a retarded comment about Zelda being a top tier title graphically by going full retard in the other direction. But whatever. And no, I don't think blowing up a low resolution image to a much larger screen improves the picture...everything else being equal...

    I see we still have work to do to address illiteracy on FOH.org. Here, I'll simplify my repeatedly-stated positions to bring aid to those who posses the reading comprehension skills of a sleepy first grader: Zelda rendered at 900p at display sizes typical of consumer TVs does not remotely...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Holy shit you two are fucking special. No kidding. That's the point, genius. An 8k smartphone would be just as pointless as a 16k smartphone because modern high end phones are already sharp beyond the ability of human vision to resolve individual pixels with the naked eye at anything...

    Super Mario Odyssey

    Game is a lot of fun if a bit too easy so far (only about two hours in). I haven't come close to dying yet which is a Mario first. It feels more like the Galaxy games than 64. The only things I don't like so far are the lame looking rabbit bosses.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Not one single person has claimed Zelda wouldn't benefit from a higher resolution. At this point you're just arguing with a strawman while contuining to hold to the retarded notion that increasing resolution always makes for a better image. That's like saying a car with a top speed of 250MPH is...

    No worries, it's completely Ut's fault anyway.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Just because people had dumb, exaggerated shit to say about it over the years doesn't make the fact that resolution is a game of diminishing returns any less true. I've been playing computer games since 1983. I know what resolution can do on a screen that is two feet away from you. It's much...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    No, contrast doesn't address any of those issues you just mentioned, and I never claimed that it did. What I did claim from the beginning is that none of those issues cause the game to be "eye bleed material", which was your initial assertion in response to another grossly exaggerated...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    You know, you're right. I've been doing this all wrong for years. Bros, I'm gonna throw a Blu Ray party at my place. I'm gonna stream everything to my Switch so that we can get maximum sharpness! Lol at that stupid big screen TV with its dinosaur pixels. Oh man this is gonna be awesome. I can't...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Contrast setting? I'm talking about contrast ratio, which is, you know, the single most important aspect of picture quality, period. And any truly high end TV is going to blow away the Switch's screen in contrast. I never said the difference between 720p and 4k can't be massive, just that a...

    Go for it, Ut. I'd be happy to make you both look like the morons you are. No need to derail two threads with abject stupidity.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Lol, the irony of this is hilarious. The vastly superior contrast ratio of a high end display is going to pound the Switch's little IPS LCD screen into the dirt in terms of quality. Jumping from 720p to 1080p or even 4k isn't nearly as massive of a picture quality improvement as the jump in...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Looks like it has a bunch of perfect scores so far. The influx of traffic apparently took down Metacritic (still down). My copy's on the way. I look forward to enjoying it for a few hours until real life punches me in the dick and it's tossed onto my growing mountain of other...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Uh, I don't need to go searching for footage. I own the thing and on my 64" TV it looks nothing like that garbage picture. If yours even remotely does, something is wrong. I don't care how amazing your TVs might otherwise be. Either your settings are grossly overcranked or you're just being a...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Yeah, I see now. I didn't take note of the other monitors in the background. But yes, that looks like shit and is a terrible representation of how it actually looks on my TV. I'm also struggling to think of a high end set that was available in 49".

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Mine looks nothing like that. Your sharpness looks to be set waaay too high for starters. The color looks way off as well, but of course I'm looking at it through a phone combined with whatever your camera was doing. If you really have super high end displays, you should give thought to...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    I have no idea what you're talking about here. I have the Switch and a PS4 hooked into a 64" TV and Zelda looks great. It's certainly not the most amazing looking game I've played by a long shot, but neither is it a jaggy/blurry mess. Maybe your TVs are shit at upscaling? I'm usually the first...

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

    I've been debating blind-buying the Blu-Ray since I love the first one. Baby Groot annoyed me in the commercials, so if he's really all over this one, maybe I'll just save the cash and wait for Netflix or HBO.

    It (2017)

    I liked the movie, but didn't love it. Pennywise was great in the opening scene. After that most of what he did was CLANKSCREAM rapidly across a room as slowly as possible. I just didn't find it that effective. I got a small thrill when he popped out of the projector screen, but that was...

    I look forward to Jamie, Bronn, Jon, Robb, Ned, Robert, Tyrion, Tywin, Khal Drogo, Sam, Stannis, Hot Pie and two of Littlefinger's whores all having exactly the same voice.

    I haven't watched it yet. If spoiler tags upset you, create another thread specifically for leaked content and have a ball. I don't think I've watched a leaked show/movie since the LOTR EEs. Cut out the Mouth of Sauron? Fuck you, I'm cheating.

    Oh, the Cersei note from season 1. That seems pretty flimsy on LF's part. Everyone with two brain cells at the time immediately figured out that Sansa wrote that at gunpoint.

    So who screenshotted the LF note? Also, why are warhammers horribly underrepresented on TV?
