Digital Foundry analyzes Mario vs. Donkey Kong's Switch remake

Digital Foundry are back to check out the latest Switch remake of a Game Boy Advance classic - Mario vs Donkey Kong. Each level is recreated 1:1 to the original 2004 release, only this time using a visual style akin to the New Super Mario Bros games. As an extra bonus, we also get beautifully animated CG cut-scenes, based on the stills used in the Game Boy Advance version.

Want to know more about how this Switch remake measures up to the original? Here’s a breakdown of the finer points:

-1080p docked and 720p handheld - 60fps in either mode - no anti-aliasing - AMD’s FidelityFX is listed amongst the credits - enemies possess both circular shadows and more realistic shadows - evidence of color transfer from the environment onto shiny objects
