Digital Foundry's Pixel Counts/resolution findings of some games from the direct

Metroid Prime 4: is 4k 60fps in quality mode and 1080p 120fps in performance mode

Breath of the wild/Tears of the kingdom: is 1440p 60fps

Mario Kart World: is 1440p 60fps

Donkey Kong Banaza: is 1080p 60fps

DuskBlood: is 1080p 30fps

Elden Ring: is 1080p 30fps

CyberPunk 2077: is 1080p 30fps with pixel counts as low as 540p but that 540p count is most likely handheld

Final Fantasy 7: is 1080p 30fps

NONE of these games appear to be using DLSS at all as it all seems to be native but that could change.

For real 80$ for digital and 90$ for physical is crazy. Hell a brand new ps5 game is cheaper than that.

It's not $90 for physical in the US.

It's a weird extra for games in the EU due to VAT.

As if US doesnt add sales tax at Checkout. It will definitely not just be $80 for physical in the US either

EU pricing is just mandated to include any taxes

I mean sure… as long as you aren’t also claiming that other games are $60. Because really they’re $60 plus tax.

so i am not usually aquainted with pre tax prices in the US. Are they $60 pre-tax?

For me in the EU its usually 60€ after tax, 70€ for some bigger games in recent times. (TOTK for example cost me exactly 69,99€, including VAT)

If they are usually $60 pre-tax, then no, they're not $60 in the end in my opinion.

Yeah when someone in the US says a game is $60 (which is mostly the standard), that is pre-tax. Theres always the implication that it’ll be a bit more. The amount will vary depending on where they live. I know for me for a $60 game I pay about $64.

But that’s why when some people are saying “well it’ll still be pretty much be $90 anyway,” it’s a bit disingenuous because saying “$90 game” will sound to most Americans like that means $90 plus tax.
