Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch, Videos | 2 Comments
Super Mario Odyssey’s E3 2017 trailer demonstrated how Mario can capture a whole bunch of objects. In a Twitter update, Nintendo gives a first proper look at the Capture Bubble in action as played in the Luncheon Kingdom.
Using the Capture Bubble, you can jump through lava. Shaking the Joy-Con allows Mario to move more quickly.
Here’s a quick bit of footage:

熱い溶岩の上もすいすい自由に移動できちゃいます。Joy-Conを振ると、水切りのように水面を素早く移動することもできるんですよ! pic.twitter.com/dBMJj9Q48T

Now that Nintendo is distributing final copies of Splatoon 2 to the media, Digital Foundry is back with a new techn analysis for Splatoon 2. The game has not only been improved compared to the original game on Wii U, but also back when it was originally shown a few months ago.
What’s interesting is that Splatoon 2 offers an adaptive resolution. It can go up to 1080p – higher than Wii U – but also lower resolutions like 1536 x 864 and 936p. The adaptive frame rate is for both docked and portable modes.
