Lost in Blurriness
Posted May 15th 2008 2:00PM by Chris Greenhough
Filed under: Screens
One of three things is happening:
- Lost in Blue on the Wii is actually this blurry.
- Our sight is finally going from spending too long looking at Doki Doki Majo Shinpan Duo screenshots. Mother said it would happen!
- Somebody broke in overnight and maliciously slathered our monitors in Vaseline.
As it stands, those are the only three explanations we can muster for these blur-o-rific
Lost in Blue screens, the first English language shots to appear. They actually look a little better shrunk down (see above), but the same can't be said for the
full-size versions. Are we being harsh by suggesting those smudgy textures recall the dreaded Nintendo 64 fuzz? We only criticize because we want this to be just right!

There is no excuse for that kind of quality.

If you told me this was an N64 VC title, I'd have believed you.
Disgusting how little regard developers have for graphics on Wii games.

It may not really be that bad, it might just be a poor-quality picture.

I felt a flash-back, just like if we went back to the N64 era....
Now, it's to hope that these screens are LQ, but the screens show few polygons as well!

Just as I thought.
The Dreamcast could do better then this. What a shame.
