Nintendo Switch UI Always Renders In 720p
This was first picked upon by Digital Foundry. “This flags a surprising design choice from Nintendo,” they said in their report. “The Switch outputs at a maximum of 1080p, with options for 720p and 480p in there too. However, even while docked to a TV, the UI still renders at 720p. When connected to a screen, all the graphics, text, and even the Mii Maker app upscale from 720p to whatever resolution you have set as your output” the report reads.
That means if you are viewing the UI on anything beyond 720p (1080p or 4K), the image quality will be less clear. It kind of makes no sense- and maybe this is something that Nintendo can address with a firmware upgrade over time. The Nintendo Switch launches on March 3 worldwide.

Won't be a big deal for me, I'll just be playing games the entire time, not sitting on the dash creating my Mii.

The wiiU2 oh I mean switch is the most pathetic excuse for a console OR a handheld I've seen since GRAPHX 16. Huge Fail! Not even HD? It's Barely more powerful then the Wii U which was barely more power full then the Wii. It's less powerful then my iPhone or an Xbox 360. That happened to the good old days of Nintendo actually being revolutionary. They keep feeding us this bullshit and expect people to buy it for the name. PATHETIC. I so wanted to like this, I really wanted it to be good. But it's not.

I would of expected 1080p atleast, nobody wants a console like this to have 720 when its capable of 1080p.
