DLSS 2 (too) - I am amazed at how many people are able to talk cogently about GPU performance, then totally fall apart when they try to talk about upscaling. It seems like even tech minded folk just don't get how you can have PS4 level power but get a PS4 Pro-esque experience.
aye. don't recall what engine it's on (the vr game is UE4)
I typically don't like to add in DLSS because other systems can use FSR2. we're already starting to see those games target lower resolutions, and Epic's best practice for lumen is to render at 1080p. even with cuts, resolution will take a lot of rendering power
Thanks! This looks so busy visually hahaha. Even the VR one doesn't look like a leap over MK8 (Except in lighting) due to character modeling being sub-par. Gosh, MK8 really goes to show what talented artistry can do even on low-end hardware.
that's pretty telling. because they're animated and dynamic actors, they're kept out of the bvh because constantly refitting them would take too many resources
I don't even care if Nintendo to pushes the cutting edge with that power lol. They could maintain the same graphical ambition they have now just use the new horsepower to lock every release to 108060 lol. Anything else is bonus in my eyes.
I get that, when talking about current gen and big multiplats. But when people hear "PS4 like performance" their brain says "PS4 games" which becomes "no way they can do 4k lolz". Not "PS4 Pro experiences will be possible with any half decent port."
Well then, so this is new development by the GPU overlords
When people thought it would look... Bad?remember when people thought Mario Kart on wii U would have looked like this?
Wouldn't be the first time users wrongly trusted someone lol. I wonder how Polygon is doing.
I mean I think there's a difference between vaguely leaking generalized information, and essentially outing your source given that MS is the only Spanish dev Nintendo works with.
Is that supposed to look good? I much prefer what Mario Kart 8 became.remember when people thought Mario Kart on wii U would have looked like this?
As someone whose brain hates dangling threads I actually sincerely do wonder how Polygon is doing
And maybe Mariokart.
I'm not sure if I ever specifically expected that, but as someone who did not like the look of Mario Kart Wii at all and felt it was a disappointing progression compared to other Wii Nintendo franchise entries, seeing the leap Mario Kart 8 represented shocked me. At the time, I probably did expect something closer to the aesthetic of that screenshot you shared as opposed to the beauty of what we got. With my mindset coming directly off of the Wii, I certainly would not be anticipating Mario Kart to be a graphical showcase for [REDACTED] like I am now.remember when people thought Mario Kart on wii U would have looked like this?
Hey, at least the new console is 100% coming next year unless the sun explodes or something. The wait is almost over.

Nintendo will almost certainly use raytracing in all of their exclusives, if not RTGI in their biggest ones considering RDNA2's poor support can already do that in select titles. Their cartoon styles are literally made for it, the implementations are likely to differ in intentions but it'll 100% be a thing in their overall rendering pipeline.
What makes next year any likelier than 2025?
Your a real imagineer?
I stand by wanting a Fluidity game on Drake where you use water to manipulate light. Take special shapes and become lenses, lay flat on a surface and become a mirror. A 3D space where you manipulate the gravity, and use it to get the light and the water to its goal.
There'll be a peripheral to attach an original Switch so you can play DS/3DS games as they were meant to be played.
This recent article comes to mind:I don't think a foldable screen is a good idea, if a good portion of your audience are kids.
Is this tech kidproof enough?

I think Nintendo can push Next Level Games for next LM to be a 3D game with free camera movement. Switch NG potential HW can make a very pretty/ambitious game and LM3 proved to be a +10 million seller. I think its worthy to give it more budget.
I think any franchise games that are already known to play in 30fps would benefit. Zelda would benefit a lot. DLSS will ease the load on framerate when it comes to RT.
I mean, last year everyone was saying 2023 is guaranteed. Now everyone says 2024 is guaranteed.
But in Zelda they want to utilise the hardware to expand the gameplay in new ways. Even more realistic physics, even more crazy ways you can interact with the world, who knows what they come up with.
I would change up those numbers a bit.
Depends on when the launch titles are ready and how much steam the Switch will have left, the latter being crucial for the transitional period, imo. Frankly, I see no reason to wait that long to release the successor, when things seem to winding down.
Ehhhhhh.... I'll say 40% for 2023. My cutoff point is the end of the month.
