Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo Specs Revealed | Game Rant

Pikmin fans awaiting the arrival of Pikmin 3 Deluxe were recently treated to a demo for the Switch re-release, and while most players have been content with simply playing Pikmin 3 on the Switch, others have used the demo to figure out how the new version holds up to the Wii U original performance-wise.

With so many re-released games from previous generations running better on newer hardware, it’s understandable that fans are wondering if Pikmin 3 will be getting a similar upgrade on the Switch (especially in light of its full $60 price tag). Unfortunately, on a purely technical level, Pikmin 3 Deluxe performs nearly identically to the 2013 Wii U version of the game.

According to YouTube channel VG Tech, which did some tests, the demo has the same performance as the Wii U version when docked, running at a 720p resolution and 30fps. Handheld mode, meanwhile, does see some mild improvement, as the demo runs at 576p, compared to the 480p the game runs at when played on the Wii U GamePad. Of course, the demo for Pikmin 3 Deluxe might not be entirely representative of how the full game will perform, though it seems safe to assume that that is probably the case.

That’s not to say that the Switch version is a lazy port. On the contrary, Nintendo is adding a lot of new content to Pikmin 3. These new features include co-op support for the game’s story mode, new side story missions featuring Captain Olimar and Louie, reworked controls, and a new Ultra Spicy difficulty (which players will be able to access right away if they defeat the boss in the demo). So while the Switch version won’t offer much of a visual upgrade, it will still have more to offer than the original.

Pikmin 3 Deluxe will launch on October 30 for the Switch.
