Depends. If your display uses a crappy upscaling method or algorithm, then the mClassic should show a more significant improvement. The non-hdr 4k TV I play my older games on has a really bad upscale algorithm, and older games look worse than they do on my nice movie-watching TV, which has a higher-end upscaler.

One good thing about the mclassic is you can hook it up to an HDMI switcher...I have 7 systems hooked up to mine so if I think about it as paying a little more than $14 per system I don't feel too bad that I spent $99 on it. My PS3 seems to really shine with it. I've been playing GTA 4 again, and it looks muuuuuch better than when I played through it the 1st time

"there was no post production done" Hey, we know who we're watching :)

I just started thinking about this when you video popped up. Very interested to see a comparison for the cable as well. Thanks for the great content, RGT!

I am inclined to believe that they had to make the mClassic "too big to fit" and require the dongle after they fleshed out most of the design. They probably underestimated the amount of heat it produced, which in turn transfers to the console and had to retro fit the design with the dongle. Or I could be way off, so who knows.

The Mclassic is a bit pricey at $99, but the fact that it works with almost all consoles (even all the way back to the Gamecube with the adapter that comes with the Mclassic) makes it more than worth it to me, especially for when I wanna replay some of my old Gamecube and Wii games with improved visual quality on my HDTV, and I've also heard it works really well for a lot of Nintendo Switch games too. Already put in my order for it, I can't wait for it to arrive :D

You didn’t get what this was made for, it does it’s best work with a 480p input. If you leave the switch at the highest resolution it’s basically going to pass it thru. 480p scales up to 1440p retaining 60fps if the game supports that frame rate allowing your switch to not work as hard but give you the higher resolution. Best example to use is a wii-u set to 480p, what happens afterwards is magical.

I own it for the Switch and I agree.. I put all my games at 720p in the Switch settings, and let the mClassic do the work... My TV is 1440p compatible and it up scales everything to 1440p... and it looks stunning. If mine broke today, I'd hop on Amazon and buy another one. I even thought about buying a 2nd one just to have for my other consoles, without having to switch cables... It's a great buy if you know what you are doing

I pre-ordered the mClassic. I’ve had it plugged into my Switch for over a year now. It’s definitely helped games look and play a little better. For example, in Xenoblade Chronicles, field items appear a little further away than without.

great video as usual! I had wondered what kind of impact a device like this would have and my doubts have indeed been confirmed. The quality difference does appear far too slight for such a price.

RGT and all of you up here need to read this! I see so many you tubers posting videos and using this device incorrectly on the Switch. Games like Doom, Wolf 2, Xenoblade 1 and 2, that run natively in 720p you are supposed to set your Switch to 720p and let the mclassic do the upscaling for you. It is a better upscale than your Switch or your TV for that matter. But games that run in 900p or higher like Mario Odyssey and Dragonball Fighterz you leave the Switch in 1080p. It will also upscale games and run them in 2K if you have a monitor or tv that supports that resolution. I have been running tests on this device for the past nine months. I was an early backer and I ended up getting 1 for about 70 bucks. If you are hard headed and just want to keep running everything set to 1080p on your Switch then you won’t see the results you are desiring and you will get frustrated and ask yourself why did I waste my money on this stupid device. All because you didn’t follow simple directions. Once I understood this then Doom looked freaking amazing on the Switch! Xenoblade Definitive and 2 which were blurry now look more like how the creator’s envisioned them look instead of that blurry mess that they look like when running them normally On the Switch in 1080p. Look if you want the best possible visuals for the Switch in docked mode then you will follow these directions. If you really don’t care about graphics much and you are satisfied with how the graphics look on the Switch then you don’t need to worry about it. Lastly if you are looking at this video on KZread you will not get a clear picture at what this device can do from this compressed video. Not at all!

If the Switch upscales it first, it screws it all up and the difference is WAY less noticeable. Watch Digital Foundry's proper review of the mCable, because this review is misinformation TRASH. I've owned the mCable for 2 years now, and have used it across a ton of games of varying resolutions, and it absolutely needs to work with the resolution closest to the game's native resolution for best results. Lots of Switch games are native 720p docked, so this is a great cable for Switch.

A few things, the switch (on the mclassic) actually toggles between THREE settings, as shown on the box, not hidden deep in some user manual, I find that the swtich (nintendo) actully works better on the "retro mode". Its milage will vary from game to game, some games like Zelda link to the past and BotW look way better. I will agree the size of your tv should play a factor. On my 55 inch the difference is very noticable but on my computer monitor not as much. I actually recommend you connect the adapter by the tv, not the switch (it will need some adapters but this way lets you use the usb power of the tv if the tv has one). It works through an hdmi splitter as well. I would recommend you try and see the difference between the settings on some other games. As far as "making the same adjustments" on the tv" is highly inaccurate. First off, the finagling would be annoying, and the changes for more vibrant color can deeply effect the colors of shadows. Last, in Beat ups review of the Xenoblad Chronicles there is a great example of what it can do, I wonder what setting he has his Mclassic on. I have it and while what you say here about the device I would agree with for higher res systems like the ps5 and xbox one, as in the difference is minimal, for the switch and more retro consoles it is a difference maker. Although, even in those games the mileage will differ, try paper Mario games with, as in the 64 or gamecube, I would love to see a more detailed comparison with the mclassic modes.

It works on the dreamcast too

mClassic looks great on larger TVs. There's a noticeable difference in games like Astral Chain with it on and off and it also sharpens up images on the PSVR coming from a regular PS4 console :) It is expensive though.

As others have stated this works so much better in retroconsoles such with HDMI adapters of plug ins such as the Gamecube, Dreamcast, and PS2. I do use it on the Switch, PS3, and Xbox 360 in 720p mode but it has mixed results. I still think it's worth it especially for retro games.

I use one and it does what it's suppose too. Astral chain, Mario Odyssey, & Pokemon sword are the main games I've tried with it and it does exactly what its made for. It's not super great but it fixes the jagged lines and makes them straight. I just keep my setting on automatic instead of always 1080p under my switches system settings.

purchased it and it's better than what I saw in this video, like in breath of the wild and doom and such.

Nice comparison. I've seen better results in other channels, that's why I'm a little confused if this is worth or not. Did you test the standard signal without the MClassic pluged or you just turned it off? Maybe it's still filtering the image even without the upscaling. Anyway, thank you very much for this comparison!

I'm kinda wondered what if Nintendo saw this unofficial Nintendo graphics adapter product and figured out to make it better for anyone wanted better graphics?

I just plugged this into my Switch to clean up the shimmering jaggies in Mario 64 for the Mario 3D Classic Collection and WOW👀👀, not only did it clean up the visuals everything is much sharper. This device is awesome for the Switch.

I would try it out, hooking the Mclassic to the TV and run old consoles to it through an automatic switch, with a framemeister in between if needed.

If you have a Sony TV thats newer you can put Reality Creation around 70 and put the TV in game mode. It vastly improves lower resolution video games and game mode will push colors a little more. Its also super easy to turn on and off and see an instant difference.

I actually backed the kickstarter for this and got one. The difference was barely visible; I tried it on my Wii U download of Mario Galaxy though, and I could definitely make out a slight difference. I have a feeling that these would work wonders for huge displays at conventions and whatnot though, but as it stands I wouldn't really invest in it if you expect it to really make a visible difference. Also, I'd really like to see what it looks like hooked up to the mCable!

Got this during its fundraiser for $70 and I keep it attached to my dock at all times, works great and you can tell the difference on most games

Oh man you have no idea how long i have been waiting for this video from you

There is an actual difference when using this in the Witcher 3, but you have to mess with in-game settings to notice. i also use monster cables instead of the stock one the switch comes with for faster transfer rates and it actually helps. i dont have this m classic, but switchup has a review for it and shows the best settings for it

Hi RGT85 . Great Channel. Cheers from Santiago Chile

Am getting this u sold me on this bro good video keep up the good work

Got the Mclassic specifically for the Dreamcast, and let me tell u running vga to the Mclassic and the old girl has never looked better. Everything is nice crisp and clear. Admittedly the antialiasing improvement is good but don't expect Razer straight edges. It can only do so much with a 480p image and is really dependent on the game. Evolution has very clean edges to begin with and the Mclassic really smoothes it out. Grandia 2 which at times can have some very jaggy edges u can see how it only does so much. Over all its a great product and paring it with a OSSC or Retro Tink 2X Pro is awesome on the 480 consoles. Just make sure to stay away from composite upscaling u end up with a bloby mess, go with svideo or component for best results. Ps. The Retro Tink 2X Pro can handle only upto 480/576i no progressive scan support for those resolution.

It depends on the game to me. When playing astral chain, this did make it look a bit nicer. On other games that aren't as graphic intensive, It can make it a bit harder for me to read text in the game.

Yes this works. A lot of nintendo First party games are so well done the most you get is a slightly cleaner image. But a lot of 2nd party or indie games can get real cleaned up thanks to it. Or games that were downgraded ports get a nice boost. xenoblade 1 and 2 get a real nice clean up and the blurry look goes away. You really needed to try this on a wider range of games. Breath of the wild gets a nice clean up with it as well. Also most TVs dont support 4k or you need a 4k compatible gable to get the best results you should set the switch to 720p and get a very cleaned up 1080p signal. It usually looks a lot better setting your switch to 720p and just getting a constant 1080p then dealing with dynamic resolutions of from 900p going all over the place.

Honestly, it works great IMO for systems like PS3, Xbox 360, or even the Nintendo Switch. I use it when I am playing on my modded CFW PS3 or my Nintendo Switch. The best way to use it is to make sure to set your resolution to 720p... that way it can work it's magic and if set to 720p, it will actually upscale higher than 1080p - I can't remember the exact number but on my TV I see confirmation that it gets upscaled to like 1380xsomething or whatevs. I wish I could say the exact number... but I know it only does this when the image is set to 720p. When you let the MClassic do the majority of the "work" with it's AI upscaling, picture rendering, sharpening, and it's slight color saturation boost (deepens the contrast just enough to make things pop a little bit more) then it really truly is like a graphics upgrade IMO. If you have the money, then get it forsure. You can find a used one for cheaper... It's tough to tell from a KZread video but in person on a non-compressed image feed coming straight from your console, it becomes a lot more apparent as to how much it actually does to improve the way things look. Now, I wouldn't really use it on a PS4/Pro, Xbox One, Xbox Series, or a PS5... I don't think it would do much good. You could try it? I might someday for kicks and grins lol... but for older systems or the Switch, I think it's pretty awesome. Pair it with a super good HDMI cable with an OLED TV or something, and you should be really happy. Even alone on your basic flat screen TV, it will look great! I am happy with my purchase no doubt!

Once you try it with GC, DC, and Wii games on the Wii U it makes a pretty big difference.

I got the MClassic to play Skyward Sword with better visuals on the WiiU. The main thing you need to know to use it properly, is that it alters the image based on the resolution output. Playing Skyward Sword on the WiiU, with the system settings on 1080p did next to nothing, however if you set the system resolution to 480p (the actual resolution of the game) it makes a vast difference. So, be sure to lower the system resolution to match what the resolution of a game actually is to see the best results. The upscaling and effects are directly related to the signal the MClassic receives. Unfortunately, the Switch does not have an option for 900p to match the actual resolution of Breath of the Wild, but lowering it to 700p might give better results than using it with 1080p. You should revisit your testing of this with the method I've described if you want to see how useful the MClassic can be.

Yeah almost everyone that reviews this never bothers to look up the Marseilles guide for optimal settings they put on on YT.

I think they are marketing the Switch to get some extra sales and appeal outside the retro crowd, but honestly, it's really meant for older consoles, where it does work some magic. Not worth it for the Switch alone, but if you'll get use out of it for older consoles, I guess it wouldn't hurt plugging it into your Switch too as a side use.

Thanks for that review bro 👍🏼

I myself can't speak for the Switch because I still don't have one but for Retro Consoles or stuff like the PS3 and Wii-U it is a Godsend device and delivers a true enhancement If you have a system from Analogue like the Mega SG or the Super NT it makes them look even better.

The device upscales to 2k and 4k resolution but you have to keep in that the monitor or tv have to be able to display those resolutions.

In the other hand, it's a huge difference to watch this channel at 1080p (like this video), compared with the usual 720p that is normally used for the rest of the content.

Nice video RGT 85 👍. The Marseille mClassic looks a very neat Product, Cleans Up and Clears Up the Graphics, makes them abit Smoother n Smarter aswell but for the Price I think I'll live with the difference without it. Definitely interested in seeing the Comparison between the mClassic n mCable tho RGT 85 :-).

I would suggest testing on your Genesis with the retrotink2X in the mix.

ty for the review bro!

@RGT 85: It's not how you are supposed to use the mClassic. You won't see any difference if you don't give this upscaler something to upscale. So, you have to set your Switch to output 720p docked and let the mClassic handle the upscaling. Then you will notice that this 1080p signal is better than the regular one. And it can also help to achieve better performance since the Switch has less pixels to push at any point in time.

I own the Mcable, and don't have the Mclassic yet. That said, I can't wait to get it for a way better boost in graphics. The Nintendo Dock upscales, the Mcable upscales, and then with the Mclassic sprinkled in... Well, to say I'm excited is a understatement. Looking into other compatible tech to help with my Super-Switch if anyone has any ideas. Please feel free to reply to this comment and let me know:)

Mario yawning during your 1st example pretty much summarizes this video

I have it and def see some difference, but the best difference i see is actually through my NES and atari 2600 putting the mclassic on the 3rd setting (the retro mode), i have those two consoles running through a retrotink2 then going through a hdmi 5slot switcher with the mclassic coming out of the end of the switcher, so all consoles r getting that, even made my neo geo mini look much better running it through the retro mode which allows you to accually put the neo geo mini into a 4:3 ratio

The games I have noticed this thing helps the most (from my testing), is zelda links awakening and bloodborne. Those games really lack resolution and AA.

I've got one, it's not worth buying for newer consoles but it does clean up the 360, PS3 and original Xbox with the pound cable a good bit. I backed it on Kickstarter and am happy with the discount I paid, I probably couldn't justify $100 though

I have a MCable and it’s night and day. Especially games like Xenoblades Chronicles 2 that need anti-aliasing. Sharpness is also noticeable but does not make a worlds difference.

I got one of these recently and I honestly don't think it was worth the 100 bucks, especially not for more modern consoles. I do find it works best on older consoles like for example the Gamecube, and when combined with an HDMI adapter like the Carby I feel it makes a decent difference though even then I don't think it's worth the asking price. It seemed to make an okay difference on the PS3 as well, though you need to set the console's resolution to 720p otherwise it doesn't seem to do much (if anything). I've also noticed no picture (just a black screen) when it comes to PS1 and PS2 Classics on the PS3. I haven't figured out what causes that so it could be something I'm doing wrong, I just know that it is because of the mClassic since I get a picture if I remove it. That doesn't mean it may not be worth it for someone else though, it's just that for me the differences aren't worth $100. I guess in the end, it will all come down to personal preference and if the differences are worth the cost.

Now what I wanna see is the M classic or cable used with a modded over clocked switch. I think that would show a true difference.

1:26 I saw Nintendrew!

Are you able to cut the side by yourself? I am curious if there is anything inside

Good honest review!

Probably a dumb question but I bought the OJO projector & that thing only allows 480p so does this thing work with projectors?

excellent review, I was on the fence for this, it definitely is not worth the money. Thanks alot for the detailed review

if the adapter was meant for 4k upscaling i think it would have been interesting to see but it was tested at 1080p here... so i dunno. i think these adapters are niche and like many pointed out. better for the type of audience that play on older consoles. i did see a nice difference on n64 but nothing mind blowing. at 34.99 i would buy it. but doesnt seem worth it.

I play with both as mcable and a mclassic on my switch. Crowd funded the classic for 65 I think and got 3 cables from amazon on a buy 2 get one end free sale. I play on a 55 inch 4k tv so for me it notice it alot on all the systems. They do upscale to 4k 60fps if you have 4k yuv 4.2.0 tv most modern are yuv 4.4.4. I posted for someone to try both in another video and they sayed the sharpness was to much. You can turn it down on tv.... the anti-alising effect does stack with them both or if you use 2 cables inline with a female to female adapter. One thing people also dont seem to notice is the cables ( haven't tasted on classic but I'm sure does) enhances lighting. When I was playing warframe on the plains of eidolon on one X it enhanced godrays made them more noticeable. When I modded skyrim I had to unmod lighting mods because the cables made the Ray's too potent. I recommend them for people that have bigger displays. Playing starlink on switch with 2 of the products looks as good as playing on ps4 pro with 1 ( minus the weaker graphic textures of some things like water).

From their website The mClassic graphics processor enhances every pixel on the fly with no lag time. It will up-scale gameplay up to 1440p60 on supported monitors. 4K movie upscaling

I bought one and in my opinion the MClassic works better on games using polygons rather than pixels. You can see a good enough improvement from consoles such as Sega's Dreamcast and Saturn. But it doesnt do so well on 8 -16 bit consoles / Mini's. To give an example, the difference in picture quality is going from component to HDMI. Castlevania Lords of Shadows 2 on the PS3 showed sharper, darker images which looked great. At 100.00 the price is a bit steep but still worth it.

Haha I saw this on Wood’s Xenoblade Chronicles review.

He showed the mcable not the mclassic

I own this thing and I think it's great. It's not a huge upgrade but it's worth it to me. Been using it for over a year now.

But how does this compare to a typical upscaler in a 4k TV?

im here for the RGT 85 cable and subway experience

I use one of these for my retro systems and like it. I wouldn't use it with a Switch because to my eyes the jump from 720p to 1080p isn't all that significant as your video shows.

Doom got an update that upgraded the switch to output 900p docked. It was a little over a year ago so maybe check that out?

Great review RGT.

@RGT85 it upscales to 1440p and is great for titles lacking in anti aliasing like Link's awakening.

There is a device I use for my projector called Darbeevison video enhancer. It works great for 720p and 1080p but does not upscale to 4K. It’s pricier but gives a much better picture plus it allows you to tweak the settings for the device. All Switch owners should own one!

It upscales to 1440p pretty well though which by marketing speak is 4k even if it isn't actually 4k.

I know Woods used the M Cable in his Xenoblade review and the difference seemed night and day. Maybe the games you chose just aren't the ones targeted

Dude how did that much dust collect in your dock lol. I’ve had mine since the start and it’s never collected haha

Would love to see this with the PS3/360 gen and see if it makes a difference

I love it. I use it on my monitor to play smash and and mk8 deluxe and it makes it look so nice and clean. I got it when it was on for 70 bucks over the 100. So I love it

Wait did you try to up the resolution to 2k or 4k? also is your capture device a 4k capture device?

In my opinion, the main reason people would buy this is if you have a 4K TV that doesn't natively upscale upscale. I don't think the device is trying to market that it will enhance your graphics. Rather, the major benefits are up-scaling to modern resolution and offering enhanced anti-aliasing. That being said, I don't see the value with a $100 price point. If this were $60 (the cost of a standard game), I'd likely make the investment.

Solid review. I don’t think it is worth the price tag, but to each his own.

This device was made more to be a better 4k upscaler, so I would be trying it out on a 4k TV. 1080p footage can't really do it justice.

You should have gone into the Switch settings and lock the games into 720p

It makes a lot of difference on a lot of games when you do this.

I love your honesty bro. Big reason I'm a fan. I'm a sucker for products like these but good to see it won't really make a big difference. Just saved 99 bucks

It works great on the Wii with the Hyperkin cable. But for any console 720p and up, you’re not really getting your money’s worth. RGT I think you need to do a part 2 on this with your retro consoles. You’ll have a better idea of where the m classic really shines.

I disagree. I like it for bumping my Switch from 720p to 1440p on my 4k tv. I do turn it off for some games on my PS3 on my older 1080p tv because it does crush darker colors, but still use it for stuff like PStv (720p) and Wii games on my WiiU (set to 480p). Even have a weaker Ryzen APU only PC on the same HDMI switch with those older consoles and like setting games to 720p on that and having it upscale/AA for 1080p.
