Dark Souls: Remastered took its time to land on Nintendo Switch but the wait is now over. Without further ado, you can watch these few minutes of gameplay captured in docked mode obviously.
The Switch version looks very good. Much better than the X360 and PS3 versions. I would even say it looks better than the old "Prepare to Die" edition on PC without the DSFix by Durante.
The image looks very sharp, I believe resolution is at 1080p, though will have to wait for Digital Foundry's verdict. Still, the game looks much better than I thought it would.
Just interested to know how stable the performance is, specially in a place like Blighttown. Dark Souls doesn't require 60fps, as long as the framerate is rock solid. Other than that, this looks incredibly good, even more so keeping in mind the limited hardware specs of the Switch.
PS. It still blows my mind how great this game looks. At times it feels like I'm watching the Remastered PC version. Is this the best looking game on Switch?

And there is obvious slowdown on undead burg. framerate or shit framepacing. Still, PTDE is still WAYS better than Demaster edition, just for that.

I loved this game, you can play with different characters, each with their own abilities. You had a dash, that was basically like flying - Really cool mechanic. Squaresoft at its best. (1 Week ago)

Found the game I mentioned - never thought to look for it till now. The name is "Soukaigi": [url] Seeing some comments of people who looked for it for 10 years. Crazy! (1 Week ago)

But got to a place where I couldn't progress further, because I didn't understand Japanese - before 2000, I wanna say. Really liked it and still remember it randomly sometimes. (1 Week ago)

And then later their American versions. There was this Japanese game only released in Japan, I think it was from Squaresoft, the game was quite cool and I went very far in it. (1 Week ago)

@nostradamus: Yes, PSX, N64 & Sega Saturn as well. Those days, I played a lot of imported games. I believe I played Final Fantasy 8 around 6 months before the US release. Tenchu 1 & 2 in Japanese. (1 Week ago)
