    Nintendo needs to issue quality control on what is priced at the eshop and the ports they get. You obviously have brainless people in the comments section of this video who think the switch can't handle RE4 at 60FPS even though it is a 2005 game, but this just sets an overall bad image for the switch. It is underpowered compared to the PS4 and X1 but it can hold its own in its own right. The Switch would be far better if Nintendo stepped in and said the Switch ports need to be treated in parity to other versions of those same games. Its sad really.

    @starlitalpha7 Před 5 lety +8

    To anyone who plays this game... I would highly suggest you jump into the controls immediately and set them to type 2. The reason for this is by default the aiming is done on the right stick, but this removes your ability to quickly hit the face buttons with your right thumb. Use the left stick for movement and aiming and that allows your thumb to use the face buttons to shoot, sprint, etc.

    On RE4, I remember the aiming being difficult way back on the Gamecube version as well. To be honest, the Wii version with the Wiimote aiming reticule may have been the best version as far as lining up perfect shots since the reticule can be moved freely on the screen even while moving.

    • @alanlee67

      All of the modern ports have a giant dead zone in the middle of the stick. It does make it extremely difficult to aim. The pc version with a mouse is not bad but it takes some getting used to. The game was clearly designed for the cube controller and doesn't play well with any of the ports.

I watched full seasons of TV shows on that little thing. Anyway, I live in Western Australia so I reap the benefits of our advanced timezone by default. Not all good news down here though, considering it wasn't that long ago we had no proper R18+ adult classification for games, causing countless classics to be neutered to protect our delicate Aussie sensibilities. Thank Christ we dealt with that clusterfuck a few years back. Now if only new release games weren't $80 on the lower end, I'm sure they're still more like $90 if you're silly enough to buy from EB.

      The small dips DO NOT add up to the "old feel", because the old game played perfectly at 30fps, and if it dipped, it became slow, remember? Just like arcade games, and that I would prefer. Instead the Switch version, at least to me, is unplayable, but not really because of the "dips", but because of the judder and bad frame pacing.

    1080p docked and 720p handheld at a 30fps capped option would have been a good addition for RE4

    Me and my GPD WIN cry in the corner when people say "fist time portable" for all these switch ports. Everything is portable if you want it to be

      Pretty sure when people say "portable" they mean dedicated handheld consoles and not (miniature) laptops.

    I owned these games on the Gamecube back when they first released them and I loved them. I personally wouldn't pay more than $20 for this 3 game bundle on Switch, when it drops to that price I'll pick it up.

      The only problem is that the button mapping would still be designed for the more traditional diamond layout that the Switch has, which means, for example, shooting would be on the Y button instead of A like it should be. It might fix the deadzone issue, but the button mapping would basically negate the benefit.

      the button mapping mirrors the original release on gamecube when used with a gamecube controller on the switch

    I got this game at $20 now. And to be honest, it's not bad... I think the only thing that is a con for me is I have to adjust myself to the Switch controllers since I've played this on PS2 and PC. But the great thing here is that, after 20 long years, you can now finally play RE4 whenever you go!

    I like playing the uhd pc version on a 4k screen in 720p windowed scaled with integer scaling app to full screen. Makes it look low resolution but not blurry. Kinda like gc looked on a tv or a monitor.
    This game was created with low resolution in mind but playing low resolution looks terrible on lcd. So integer scaling makes it look like if I had 27" 720p monitor native!
    Other settings are motion blur off, aa x4, original textures, 60fps and brightness max 50 so the fire looks correct and white is white
