TL;DR 640x480
This should be illegal. We had webcams like this 20 years ago. But Nintendo customers seem to enjoy outdated hardware. It's a tradition at this point
I mean, it kinda makes sense as a webcam for only being used with the Switch 2... from a 'minimum viable product' standpoint.
4 picture in picture windows of 640 x 480 on a 1920 x 1080 screen?
Eh, good enough, rofl.
I mean yeah, this is a joke, I also had a 640 x 480 webcam 20 years ago... but its very clear Nintendo has pivoted to the 'milk all the accumulated goodwill out of our customer base' phase of grand corporate strategy.
They've gone full Mr. Krabs.
but they also sell an official, better quality one, 1080p, without the flower
matt gray made a camera cover for it
