ThisGenGaming says "The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild on the Nintendo Switch boasts some impressive differences compared to the Wii U version, and these comparisons images showcases how much better the game looks on the Nintendo Switch."

Even in portable mode it has all of what was mentioned in this title. Nice.

More powerful than Wiiu

I hope this stops people from saying "Wii U version is pretty much the same" the Wii U version looks terrible compared to the Switch.

They won't stop. Asking or hoping they will is like asking them to buy a Nintendo game or system.

I say the Switch version looks better but I wouldn't say the Wii-U version looks terrible either.

It looks better but not buy a new system better. due to the file sizes being nearly the same it looks more like better AF than better textures. It does have better lighting. I'll be getting it for the wiiu.

The difference is not as much as a next gen version should be. Looks almost just as good on wiiu

[Fishy Fingers]

They've managed to improve the visuals from a mains power system to a battery powered portable. Regardless what you think of the outcome that's no mean feat.

i'd rather play a game like zelda from my home, so i can experience it on the big screen. If the screen is unavailable i'll just sit on the other couch with the wiiu gamepad in my lap.

Well DUH
it's a port

[gamer7804]

best comparison video, basically better lighting, slightly sharper textures. In some cases without knowing i wouldn't be able to tell which was switch and which was wiiu. Remember this is a WiiU game, ported to the Switch. IMO not worth it alone to spend 370$ on a switch.

Unless you do not own a Nintendo console like myself. I would much rather buy the switch then buy the Wii u which is soon to be obsolete and roughly the same price.

[gamer7804]

yah if i were in your shoes i'd do the same, just keep in mind that the switch is not backwards compatible with wii and wiiu games.

I think a lot of people, including myself, who already own a Wiiu, are hoping the Wiiu version holds up well when compared to the Switch, mainly because I'd rather not shell out the $ for the Switch just yet. If the looks and performance of the Wiiu version is at least 75% of the Switch version, I'd happily add this to my wiiu library.

Looking at the gameplay, no it doesn't, not like the article says and it's certainly not worth paying 300$ for a new console if you can play it on Wii U.
