In some cases, I even think Switch has the edge due to superior art style. Anyone else feels the same?
Edited to be clear: I'm not saying that the Switch is on the same power level but that the games look just as impressive or more so due to superior art style.

Maybe you should say that in your original post then. Some games do look great. Like Odyssey, but the zaggies are noticeable especially on a TV screen. The art style is good, always has been with Nintendo. They just don't push for demanding graphics. You say graphics not art style in your post. You got crushed so now you are back pedaling.

It's okay. I understand what you mean. I remember playing the Switch in a nearby Best Buy for the first time and being blown away by how great it looks. Not quite as good as PS4 and Xbox One, of course, but most people don't really notice that big of a difference anyway. Stand alone with no comparisons, it looks great. In comparison to othee consoles, it still looks great.

I think it looks fairly standard. Black case with a plastic LCD screen.
It's definitely a major step up from the 3DS and I even prefer it to the slick design of the Vita.

Artistically speaking, maybe. I find BotW stunning at times.
But as far as the technical side is concerned, definitely not.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe looks very impressive at full 1080p/60fps. It just depends on the game.

even with their art style, they're not as impressive as what games on other systems offer. hell, a game like journey or abzu for the ps4 looks as impressive stylistically as anything Nintendo has put out on the switch. ratchet and clank is another great example. unraveled. inside. furi. tearaway unfolded. nex machina. 

maybe you should play games on other systems before hating on them.

It honestly barely looks different from Mario Kart 8 on Wii U. I mean BARELY. The games look good but not as good as the base PS4 and most definitely nowhere near the Pro or X.

No, but frankly the gap from the PS3/360 era to the PS4/XBone era is probably the least impressive in gaming history, so honestly it's not enough of a difference for me to care in most games.
Power differences in this day and age only mean shinier graphics and little more. Giod thing I'm not a monkey, I don't really care for shinier graphics as lomg as the experience is the same.

But if you only like Nintendo games what would it be second to?

Does this apply to Japan because the 3ds sold the most.

Why NEED a second console? What if the PS4 is a secondary console to the Switch?

It's very similar, however their fanboys will have you believe that it might as well be the PS2 in terms of power. These same fanboys are often the ones downplaying the difference between PC and PS4/XBO however

Nah it´s just you. Sorry.
I mean, I'm sure if ps4 ran odyssey it would look even better. Some games look fantastic, but I'd say with all games so far I could tell it wasn't ps4 quality in terms of visuals, but that's okay.
Uhh... No?

Even these games with "superior artstyle" could be made to look better in the other consoles.

That being said, I do agree that just having high quality graphics doesn't mean crap if the art direction in the game is bad.

Technically, I'd say it can do what the PS4/XB1 can graphically, perhaps something they can't, just not as much at one time simply because it doesn't have the raw power to do so.

This. TC is comparing hardware with software to reassure himself. Even a game with a relatively simple art style like Super Mario Odyssey could have looked better with more horse power on the Switch.

All other arguments aside, superior art style pretty much guarantees Persona 5's graphics will age better.

Switch is my primary console, but I feel pretty safe saying it's a secondary console to most mainstream gamers as it's missing key third party franchises and online features.

Nintendo has a knack for using an art direction that looks impressive and ages well. Nintendo also is great at optimizing their software to get the most out of their hardware.

Sometimes when I am playing BotW, there are definitely aspects of it that are more visually impressive than Witcher 3 on my X1X.

Sure it’s the same game but the resolution bump from 720p to 1080p makes a big difference in image quality.

The thing's so close to the graphics of the other two it's remarkable. When docked you see the comparisons of well ported games the difference is barely there unless under incredible scrutiny looking closely at shadows, etc. Most would never notice it and the thing's also portable. It does takes a hit in framerate usually though 30's fine. The system's so new that it has yet to be fully tapped as well.

That the little NS has power/graphics that really hold their own against the competition it's absolutely amazing when you consider the size of it.

    The difference between PS4 graphics and Switch graphics is VISUALLY to little for me to care.

    Portability, convenience, and general time to get into a game on the Switch is a monstrous difference and allows me to game more than ever before, This I care about worlds more than graphics.

    Also, the games have been a lot of fun so I am happy.

    Let's clarify. The only games we have to compare are 

    Doom, Nba 2k18, FIFA 18, dragon quest 2, DBZ, WWE 2k18, la Noire, elder scrolls and many more.

    Is Doom that far away from the PS4 version?

    A console itself doesn't have an art style, individual games released on said console do. Comparing specifications, the Switch is quite a bit weaker than the base XB1, which is moderately slower than the PS4. But then, given its form factor, this is to be expected. Anybody who expected parity in this form factor needs their head examined. Granted, the exclusive games tend to look good due to designing their art style/environments etc. around the limits of the hardware, but if you compare the Switch versions of Rocket League/Doom etc. to the PS4/XB1/PC versions the power gulf is immediately evident.

    Yeah, you can bet Sony/MS would be selling "Ultra Slim"/handheld versions of their consoles for extra profit if they could process shrink that level of power down that far.

    There may be some nice looking games that compete with games on PS4/XBox One in terms of appearance, but that is the skill of the 'artist', not the console its on. In attempts for games that go for realism though, XBox and PS4 have more potential.

    The graphical capabilities of the Switch aren't on the same level obviously, but they're pretty close in general capability wise (with some devs being worse or better at optimization for exclusives and multi-plats alike). 

    That said, consoles still look like ass up close after coming from PC. The forced motion blur, depth of field, lack of/poor anti-aliasing, and more post-processing effects of current consoles is quite noticeable to me which is why I sit further back when playing on consoles and prefer the smaller screens on handheld systems.

    Regardless of horsepower, art style always goes a long way though.

    Looking good has not only to do with graphics. Art, execution, and sheer level of detail immediately come to mind. Nintendo has of course mastered this. Games like Zelda, Mario, and Xenoblade have stunned me at times with an almost unparalleled level of detail.

    Most games which have been ported over to NS from PC, etc. with any effort look almost identical to the untrained eye. Many are actually exactly the same (Setsuna, Disgaea, Has Been Heroes, etc..,). Example: you likely wouldn't notice if you were playing L.A. Noire on Xbox and someone switched in the Switch.

    Whether these similar games push the more powerful systems and PC isn't really the issue here, it's simply that NS plays many of the exact same games and looks almost exactly same when doing it.

    Whether these similar games push the more powerful systems and PC isn't really the issue here, it's simply that NS plays many of the exact same games and looks almost exactly same when doing it.

    I can definitely say someone would notice if you switched versions of LA Noire. The Xbox has better textures, reflections, resolution (on One X), and most importantly, the framerate is rock solid on Xbox One X.

    My Switch is cool and all but there's nothing on it that looks better than a 4K game on my One X or even PS4 Pro


    What about true 4k on a gaming computer at 200+ fps? :)

    In some cases, I even think Switch has the edge due to superior art style. Anyone else feels the same?
    Edited to be clear: I'm not saying that the Switch is on the same power level but that the games look just as impressive or more so due to superior art style.


    Stupid post to be honest. 

    There isn't a single game that looks better than some of the Pro or X titles.

    So the title says graphics but your post talks about art style. I mean, it's blatantly obvious that this is bait. Anywho, yes I think Nintendo games have stellar art style but unless we're talking about old ports or indies, the ps4 is more graphically powerful than the Switch. But this doesn't make it a lesser system. A gaming system is judged based on the games it has and given the Switch's 1st year, there's no doubt that the Switch is an amazing system (it's currently my favorite gaming system)!

    It's very similar, however their fanboys will have you believe that it might as well be the PS2 in terms of power. These same fanboys are often the ones downplaying the difference between PC and PS4/XBO however


    I wouldn't say "very" similar (Doom 2016) but at the same time it isn't a ps2 in terms of power.

    There is a huge difference. There s a reason as of why Assassin's creed origins cannot be run on a switch.

    Except la Noire switch is clóser to la noire ps3 than to la noire ps4.

    In fact, la Noire ps3 looks arguably and dubiously better than the switch versión, whereas you can tell what the ps4 versión is immediatly.

    Look at last of us or god of war 3 on PS3 they actually look better than switch games. I like the switch but it’s gimped graphically to be a handheld hybrid

      Having gamed almost exclusively on PC at Ultra/High over the last 5 years, I can't say I find the Switch's graphical prowess to be weak or sub-par in any way. Sure, I noticed some minor jaggies in Odyssey, but the system is a fucking handheld that plugs into a TV, so I don't expect PC on Ultra/High visuals.

      Welcome to the world of “knowing the difference between good engineering and good design”, not that they’re mutually exclusive, just that one usually gets sacrificed for the other in what pragmatic people call “compromise”. Limitation is an asset to creativity, not a detriment, some really impressive things have been accomplished working with less-than-stellar tools, and some truly awful things have been passed off as genius with the best tools. Of course, it’s always impressive when that rare fusion of best performance and best design blossoms. But too many people use specifications as a ruler for greatness when overall enjoyment is a far better measure.

      Edit; In before the “good engineering IS good design” crowd lights torches and sharpens pitchforks. You know what I’m saying, don’t be petulant.

      Or this Doom game looks so blurry

      The difference in Doom is very noticeable. Is as if my witch was getting Frozen when playing the game in higher difficulty settibgs. Is like slowmo playing 

      You are even dumb enough to say that the switch is close to having a great looking game as uncharted 4 or horizon.
