DF - More Switch Wii U Ports Incoming? Mario 3D World, Zelda Wind Waker + More Look Great At 1080p

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Considering how good the games were on the WiiU and how much I kinda haven't enjoyed Nintendo's recent output.... great! I want 'em.

Nobody (hyperbole) cares about Wonderful 101. Platinum Games has been trying to drum up publisher interest and there isn't any.

The problem is the hardware, not the software. Wii U is bad console, but you can't denny his software list.

Cool. New games for me.

Still no reason to get a Switch. Why no new games?

The hardware was certainly limiting, but I feel like porting wii u games to the switch is kind of like pushing what it did and what happened under the rug. I have it because I like the games, but now that they are porting things over it loses some of its use, it becomes less special to a degree.

I so badly want 3d world, pikmin 3 and Wind Waker....
But it’s Nintendo, so it’s likely something else

Agree. In my point view they could get Wii U ports if they don't fuck the process of bringing new games for Switch.

Yes. Why wouldn’t they? It cratered at a level close to the Virtual Boy.
To experience its games, in its time, which you did. Buying a Wii U did not give you an irrevocable license to keep those titles to yourself for all of time. If you can’t handle this, are you going to fall to pieces when the Series X comes out, and probably runs this entire generation at better resolutions and framerates?
I’m sure the skeleton team/outsource team will be able to handle it just fine.
It’s either trolling or retardation to comment this on a Digital Foundry article looking specifically at old games, whilst new games constantly come out for the Switch. Either way, knock it off.

The Wii U was only "Special" in the sense it should be riding the short bus.
Not really understanding the problem with people getting the opportunity to play good games that would otherwise be anchored to a disappointing console.

Not terribly impressed by the 1080p boost, tbh. I think these games were artistically designed to look fantastic at lower resolutions like 720p, and it shows. There isn’t a whole lot that you can do to these games.
That said, I’d love to have them on Switch, with true handheld functionality (and Switch would be a big step up from streamed 480p), and something like 3D World certainly fits the Joy-Con concept to a T.

Wind waker please, one of my favourite zeldas! I'd also like 3d world as I never owned a wii u and definitely metriod prime trilogy.

Never seen anybody defend 720p, in favor of higher resolution...
Not even sure if you're being serious, it's that ridiculous of a statement.

This. It was the best Mario game since...SMB3. I enjoyed it far more than 64-2 aka Odyssey.

Who’s defending 720p? Learn context, and how to read, go through that comment again, and tell me what you find.
The detail level of something like 3D World doesn’t really lend itself to major improvements. Thus, the 1080p looks better, which was never in debate, but not to the same extent of a detail-rich game like say... first thing off my head, the new Modern Warfare.

Dont need Wind Waker. One time is enough and even then i almost quitted the game without finishing it.
Would like to see Twilight Princess and W101

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
New games should be #1 on Nintendo's priority lists, however it's great Nintendo leads consoles in quality HD remasters.

From your lips to God's ear! Star Fox Zero is the most disappointing game I have ever played and yet...I long for it to be good. I will defend the Wii U till the day I leave as a great system marred by the lack of basic comprehension however, SFZ is not the game to show off.
Also PORT NINTENDOLAND AND MAKE IT ONLINE YOU COWARDS!!!!

You still have Devils Third and Xenoblade Chronicles X and Wonderful 101 (1 of these things are not like the other)

Really hope 3D World and Twilight Princess get ports, the later because I never got around to finishing it, and the former because my wife will love it.

Sounds like you spent all your money on the complete WiiU games collection and had nothing left for the Switch.

Pandora's Tower, The Last Story and Skyward Sword should definitely come to Switch!
