Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker has been delayed to January 2015, as shown in a new Wii U trailer.
All 12 games are getting different upgrades. Some get full visual and frame rate enhancements, while others get GameShare support only.
hmm... those improvements for the zelda games is kinda weak. I was expecting improved frame rate, or at the very least more stable. Sad there is nothing for Paper Mario, that one could use a 60fps mode like the original GC version.
Both Zelda games both run at 1440p and 60fps now. On the switch they both play at 30fps.
The main issue will be if they don’t remove the double buffer vsync in them.
Yes, they are technically already 60fps capped, but that vsync setup means even a single dropped frame below 60 sends it to 30fps.
Now if they are also increasing the resolution and visuals in the game, unless there is a pretty significant overhead, which is still likely but not fully understood due to the unknowns of the “emulation” setup, if the 1% lows in the game still drop it every now and then anywhere below 60, they will still end up having massive stuttering drops from 60 to 30fps.
The two Zeldas - EoW and LA - already run with a 60fps cap. I would hope they're not mentioning improved frame rate because it's just assumed that the Switch 2 will smooth out the drops.
Whereas the specific callouts for Bowser's Fury and Pokémon indicate a raise from 30fps to 60fps.
So... They're not gonna do anything with that Xenoblade Chronicles X 60fps mode, huh?
12 is a bit weak. The whole switch library is in need of a boost. Exclusives like the Xenoblades and Astral Chain would be great to see get a free update. Initially surprised Mario Wonder wasn't on the list, but I imagine they have a paid upgrade planned for that one.
Nintendo has kicked off a big Summer Game Sale on the North American eShop. Switch owners can save on a bunch of different tiles from both Nintendo and third-parties, including Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Dragon Quest XI S, and much more.
Took them forever to put it on sale on the US store! It was on sale for the EU store back on the New Years sale, and at least 1 other time. I had waited so long, I just knew the minute I dropped $60 on it, it would end up going on sale. Took longer than I thought though. I nabbed DQXI S and also DQ Builders 2 last night. Both great games!
I had 7 1/2 hours in the DQXI S demo, so I already knew I loved it. Glad my progress carried over.
Amazon has once again discounted the physical version of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker to $29.99 on the Nintendo Switch.
So discreet, much delay
IN EUROPE
Just a simple few weeks get over it geez
Didn't Nintendo already announce that Captain Toad was coming out in January of next year for Europe??? I don't know where the delay is?
People complain about the gaps between games on Wii U. IMO Nintendo would be smart to spread their games out
very interested in this game
