If there happens to be any major Nintendo news at any point of the show, we’ll have it here on the site. We’ll also post the full lineup of award winners – hopefully Zelda or Mario will be taking home the “Game of the Year” prize.

Resident Evil Revelations Collection tech analysis

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch, Videos | 10 Comments

Digital Foundry has returned with its latest Switch technical analysis. The Resident Evil Revelations Collection has been explored in-depth this time around.

Digital Foundry starts with the sequel, Resident Evil Revelations 2. The game runs at the maximum 1080p resolution when docked and 720p in handheld mode. However, anti-aliasing has been entirely removed. Capcom has implemented some form of sharpening, which can make textures look sharper but introduces noise and shimmering. A few other graphical bells and whistles have been reduced or removed, but Resident Evil Revelations 2 for Switch stacks up favorably to other consoles.
