    I can't imagine how Baldur's Gate is going to work with a controller.

    I can’t imagine how it’s going to look upscaled to 1080p, or even worse, 4K.

    I’ve played a few of these sprite based PC games @1080p and the image quality was hideous.
    A Black Falcon: no, computer games and video games are NOT the same thing. Video games are on consoles, computer games are on PC. The two kinds of games are different, and have significantly different design styles, distribution methods, and game genre selections. Computer gaming and console (video) gaming are NOT the same thing."

    That's probably not a problem for BG, though, since the standard practice for years (1080p hacks have been around long before Beamdog got the rights) has been to NOT upscale but just enlarge the viewable area. So your character appears rather small on screen. Text is enlarged so its not too tiny. It looks quite nice.

    Considering there are enhanced ports of most of those games (ported to tablets, no less) they'll probably be fine.

    I actually really want those games on my Switch.
