anyone notice the excuse to bring attention to show bias. They did say they hold Nintendo to a higher standard, then use that to bring more attention to nitpicks. 

 

granit i will say they are supposed to present the issue, the problems come when they try to show the nitpicks and ignore the good/ or vise versa.

 

the 59 fps dip. That is certainly a glitch or similar. If there is no patch from Nintendo about it, (unless Nintendo doesn't patch at all), then id want to test on a different wiiU,

But now what you have are a bunch of so called experts who CLAIM they were all in to buy a WiiU but now because of this issue they refuse to and as one poster of Neogaf said nintendo "BLEW IT" damn gamers make me laugh now and days


But on the plus side, at least the morons going around claiming that the Wii U was more powerful than the XB1 "becuz it haz mor 1080p games" will finally shut up.

Not really, they're that picky with very game they analyze.

i wasn't arguing that they were netpicking, i was arguing based on how much attention they put on the nitpicks, though eurogamer put more effort into that than DF

No one should have taken them serious. It was a tiny chance the game was 1080p but the majority new this was a blunder and it was a case of all other major releases up to this point. 720p upscaled and from what we see on screen there is nothing wrong with that

Would anyone realistically cancel their pre-order because of this?

That's not really an average.

We will have to wait and see if the "judder" is noticeable.

The article touches on a possible patch by Nintendo and could this 1 frame from perfection be just a glitch?

Maybe NTSC consoles will be solid 60fps? Kind of like the old 50hz Euro games from Nintendo past that run better on consoles from other regions. Dunno.

 

It's not like the framerate fluctuates or ever lowers than 59fps (which would indicate optimization/hardware spec issues). Hopeful Nintendo will be aware.

Seriously guys, forget about it. It's not going to make a snitch of difference when you're trying to fire those green shells at your foes.
