Resident Evil: Revelations comparisons, performance analyzed

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments

Digital Foundry is back with another comparison of a recently released multiplatform game: Resident Evil: Revelations.

Revelations appears to be the worst on Wii U out of all HD versions from a technical standpoint. Digital Foundry concludes that on Wii U, the title suffers from a “more erratic performance” and “less precise controls”. Still, “Revelations is still well worth buying on the Wii U”, Digital Foundry says.

You can find a few video comparisons of all versions below. Be sure to check out the full piece here, which also covers the impressiveness of the 3DS version.
