Haven't found any, but I haven't really looked. Just kinda stumbled on the Dualshocker's confirmation.

Just drop it to 720p docked please, probably wouldn't look much worse on a 4k screen with a good upscaler.
No it's not. I'm playing it and there are framerate hiccups all over the place.

From the Wii U vids I've seen it's not that bad at all.
It doesn't. I doubt Nintendo will ever do a performance patch.

Do we have hard evidence either way? Or do we gotta wait for DF?

Splatoon Inkopolis update, although small, brought if from 30 to 60 fps... I'm sure eventually they could tweak Zelda to be 30 across the board.
We shall see!
I'm pretty certain inkopolis is still 30.

Pretty fine for me and Switch drops in the exact same places it seems where the WiiU does drop

I've been playing it as well and it's fine if you're not a frame diva. Towns get a bit chunky but nothing to skip the game of the year over.

Could it be a lack of triple buffering ?

Just looked into it a little more. It seems as though it's not 60, but at some point early in the game's lifespan there was definitely an update to the frame rate in Inkopolis.

There was absolutely an update that fixed the frame-rate in inkopolis. I remember it clearly because pre-patch it was a stuttering mess. It's much smoother now.
Forget stability and quality, we're all about comfortability now

The WiiU actually looks to have faster loading times when installed to internal NAND vs. Switch on a game card lol
Nah. Put it on the new robot with the wheel legs.
Well, that's obvious, as there's a direct link between the NAND and the RAM.
Yeah, seems like a hiccup somewhere that's causing those pauses.

Hah that sounds like control options rather than framerate. But I guess it could be referring to framerate.
Is it confirmed to just be cosmetics? I was considering getting it but I don't want to get overpowered items right away and screw up the balance.

From what I heard it's just crafting resources and a Switch tshirt. So probably no balance screwing.
There was but I'm pretty sure it's not 60. Going from inkopolis to Octo Valley there's a definite difference in smoothness.
Yes. It's not 60. But it was a noticeable improvement compared to pre-patch.

Why can't we get a framerate comparison, it's killing me lol.
There is, I got the WiiU version of the game yesterday, played an hour or so. Just played it again today and there was an update/patch, which installed. The game seems to be running a little smoother now, but maybe that's just my imagination.
Inkopolis was lucky to hit 30 fps before the patch. It was baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.
Even if it's only a small improvement then I'm happy, thanks!

Sorry if my posts weren't clear, but I am in no way sold that there's a frame bump yet. I'd like to believe Dualshockers, but it's hard when they're the only decently credible source for this there is.
I wouldn't take the translation too literally

Any info on Wii U version's off-tv play? Does it run better and possibly only run at 480p (native gamepad resolution)?
sorry i'm tired and thought this was also a wii u day 1 patch

Ah I didn't realize it was a translation, I hadn't clicked the link.
I'm guessing we'll see a DF pre/post patch analysis within a few days. Also a Wii U/Switch analysis.
I'm not 100% sure on this but I don't think that's how the Wii U works. The images are always rendered at only one resolution and then they are sent to the 480p screen, rather than being rendered specifically for the screen.

It might not be 60 (though I'm almost certain it is), but it is absolutely significantly smoother than it was at launch.
Slick Butter

I figured it may be possible for it to switch rendering resolutions on the fly if it was told it was switched to off-tv mode.
Didnt know if there was any precedent for any function like that, though.
it was lower than 30fps at first then they patched it to be a solid 30fps, it's not 60fps

Will there be a wii u patch?

I do not believe that there will be immensely crippling frame rate issues on Wii U. They've been making the damn game for 5 years, I simply do not believe it

How many patches are there?

I don't believe there is; off-tv games are effectively super sampled as a result, which is why the image quality on the gamepad is actually pretty decent (color issues notwithstanding).
It's worth noting that the isn't a precedent for a Nintendo game with off-tv that struggled at 720p either, though. Who knows, they could render at 480 on the gamepad.
The game was designed from the ground up for WiiU, not Switch. It was just ported to Switch, and apparently didn't take long either.
