Marseille mClassic OG - Gaming Resolution Upscaler and Image Enhancer for Nintendo Switch, Retro Consoles Like Xbox, PlayStation, Gamecube, N64, Wii, SNES, and More - Supports 1440p/60hz

So this thing is designed to increase visual detail by interpreting frame data from your devices and adding to it. It also has a free anti-aliasing level given to anything passing through it (smoothing edges that have stair-stepping/jaggies/aliasing).Wow. I tried this thing out on all my 1080p and sub 1080p consoles, it really makes the content look much better on my TVs. The device only forces whatever native output resolution your TV tells it to (a 4k that doesn't natively support 1440p will only tell the device to go to 1080p). My smaller 1360X768 tv forces that instead of taking a 1080p image and downscaling it like it does with a PS4 signal. Your mileage may vary if your monitor or TV can force resolutions. Nonetheless, it's going to be whatever your TV natively supports that is 1440p or below that will be your maximum output.That said, I am very happy with this device. On my Switch, the upscaling of sub 1080p content and even 1080p content looks wonderful with the built in anti-aliasing making things look so much cleaner that I was able to boost the TV's sharpness of the image without getting visual noise (aka much better visual experience). This led to better visual clarity because the image was allowed to be less soft without becoming noisy or aliased. My 360 and PS3 that are hooked up to that smaller TV I mentioned look amazing even with the meagre "pixel boost". Heck even the PSTV I have hooked up to my 4k display looks so much better. Muramasa Rebirth and Killzone Mercenary have never looked this good.This is a good device for hardware of older resolution levels. Your returns diminish with higher resolution devices (I don't think an pass of extra anti-aliasing is worth the money on near 4K resolutions) but the sizeable visual upgrades (especially if you are a multi-console owner still plugging through old libraries) are well worth it. If you can get a low latency splitter, it spreads the love across any devices inputting without the need to buy individually for each device which is a nicety I wasn't expecting. I recommend it but make sure you understand what you are getting out of it and whether your usage scenario makes sense.Edit 09/10/22 - The photos I sent are pretty jumbled up so I am resubmitting them in a order that has the mclassic smoothed one first and the native image second. Keep in mind these are taken on a 4K tv where the image is outputting at 1080p with an anti-aliasing pass. Games with lower native resolution have a more perceivable difference and a 1440p monitor will get better results (have one on the way so I may repost thereafter). I am going to point out areas to look at to see the perceivable smoothness difference or sharper detail for those maybe not seeing the benefit.On BoTW Link: Observe the handle of the weapon over his right shoulder as well his bracer on his right arm where the transition between the pixels on link and the background are smoother. Also the texture detail on his shirt, the sheikah slate and other items has a clearer definition between colors and sharper edges.Super Kirby Clash Mage Kirby: Check out the area where Kirby's head reaches the hat or the lines of the star on the hat. The orb in his staff also has far less issues with the edges stairstepping. Though the textures are minimalist there is cleaner lines again on color changes on the hat or in the staff orb.Smash Bros Link: The Sheikah slate handle is remarkably smoother in image 05 (Mclassic) vs 06 (native). In images 07 and 08 notice how much more "serration" exists on Link's ear in 08 vs the 07 with Mclassic) These are a handful examples on my current setup, may update further.Edit 07/23/2023 Having used this for close to a year. I really appreciate what it does. Partciularly now that I have a 1440p monitor I use, this makes my Switch and Xbox 360 games look much, MUCH smoother with that 1440p upscale and anti-aliasing. I jump between these consoles and my PS5 and Series X and this has made the visual difference feel so much less jarring. 720p on Xbox 360 has been OK but now going back and playing Resident Evil titles for achievements on that console, it feels smooth, clean and very easy on the eyes. Switch gets a more minor upgrade but playing Tears of the Kingdom I have felt less impact from the dynamic resolution compared to friends of mine. What you get out of this requires a lot of understanding of the tech around it. 1080p and lower consoles benefit and if you have a monitor or TV with 1440p it will make an even bigger difference. Still highly recommend!

First off, I'd like to point out two important factors when using this with the Nintendo Switch. I see a lot of complaints about the Switch specifically in the reviews section.1) You can get 1080P graphics refinement with any tv & hdmi cord.2) If you want to get the Switch picture to boost to Full 4k your TV has to be 2K & 4K compatible.2A) You also need an HDMI Cord that supports 4K output. (I personally recommend Rocketfish HDMI Cords)As far as performance, on the Nintendo Switch & PS4, I would rate it a 6/10. It does some nice overall smoothing out of the picture, gets rid of some jaggies & makes everything pop a little bit more. If you can output @ 4K that is the best way to utilize this device on the Switch/PS4 and it will provide a small but welcomed improvements to the Switch/PS4 picture. But DO NOT BUY this if you are only using it for the Switch or PS4, it's not worth it. It's value is in it's versatility & what it does with retro games.The PS4 & Xbox One are pretty much the same as Switch, minimal improvements, but welcomed improvements. It smooths out jaggies & makes everything pop a little more.Like I said, the value in this product is in it's versatility, It's super easy to switch it from console to console and if you retro game this graphics card is a must!Where the M-Classic really shines is on retro consoles. I'm currently using this graphics card on a PS3, Xbox 360, an Original Xbox and I would give the M-Classic a 9/10 when used on these retro consoles. It does some really impressive enhancing and graphics smoothing on the Retro Consoles, it's very noticeable right from the get go.Notes on PS3 & Xbox 360With the PS3 & Xbox 360 I just plug n play with these two consoles. Important thing to know here is that a lot of games on these two consoles only output @ 720P. So, it's better to go into your menu settings & switch your Output to 720P rather than 1080P & let the M-Classic do it's job from there & upgrade the 720P resolution to 1080P. According to Marseilles, this would be the correct way to maximize the picture. If you do come across a 1080 game, you can simply switch the resolution setting & the M-Classic will do it's part to upgrade the picture.NOTE: You do NOT need to use Retro Mode (Green Light) on the 360 & PS3, regular processing mode (Blue Light) is all that's needed on these.Notes on Original XboxAny console older than the 360 or PS3 you'll want to use in Retro Mode. The Original Xbox games were mostly in 420P with some being 720P so again you'll want to switch your settings to 420P for games that output @ that resolution & let the M-Classic upgrade the visuals from the games original desired output. Xbox does have 720P & 1080I options, but you never need to select 1080I with the M-Classic, that will only impede it's ability to do what it's supposed to. You only need to select 720 if the game supports that output.SIDENOTE: Experimenting with some other picture resolution techniques, I found that the HD Pound Cable for the Original Xbox works really well in combination with the M-Classic. I've been using this combo on the Original Xbox & it has been very impressive visually.Anyway, that's my review and input on this product. I think it's an awesome if you are an avid gamer & have multiple consoles that could benefit from it's features. It's super easy to use, switching consoles is a breeze so the versatility is amazing.If you're only buying it for one console like the Switch, I would probably say it's not worth 100 dollars just for the Switch benefits. However, if you have a house full of consoles & retro consoles like me, this graphics card is a must have.
