This article is basically ”as it says in the title”…
A Nintendo Rep has claimed that both Batman: Arkham City – Armoured Edition and Assassin’s Creed III will run natively in 1080p when released for the Wii U later this year. Nintendo, Ubisoft and Warner Bros have yet to confirm the news.
read source, sounds promising, but will wait until further confirmation since most of the Wii U demos shown run at 720p.
Nope, you can't just flip a switch this late in the game and have a 720 rendered game magically render at 1080. And the feed to the controller is actually 720 downscaled to 480p to match the screen.
i don't think they have ever shown a 1080p showing of either games, its more that this will be the case when they are launced, also the feed to the controller is only 480p, the reason it still looks crisp is because of the low resolution.
Although the versions I played looks better than on other consoles, afaik, Batman doesn't render 1080p natively. It looked like 720p on the HDTV to me and another 720p feed for the controller. As for AssCreed, that is possibly 1080p native. However, both Wii U's I saw were outputting a 1080p signal to the TV's.
