    Visual Glitch, strange horizontal lines while walking

    I bought AC III Remastered from the Nintendo E-Shop and when I walk around in the Handheld mode, strange horizontal lines appear on the screen. When I don't move, the lines are not visible. There are about 5- 6 of them across the board, very fine but clearly visible. It only happens to occur with AC III and not with other games. Any Idea?

    I also get this too, im on Switch Lite, no other games, thought my screen was defective, but its just this game. Will get horizontal lines, 6 or so of them, very prominent in the snow.

    I get the same issue as well. Must be inherent with the port. I’ll tolerate it but that sucks...

    Same issue here.
    I’m using the new revision from 2019.

    Hey folks,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    Can you provide us with any screenshots or video of these fine lines on the screen?

    Hello,
    I made a short video that shows the visual glitch (difficult to spot on video due to poor quality), in reality when playing it is easy to see on a white ground, such as snow.
    Happy Holidays.

    Thanks for the footage Baikonator
    Just to confirm, this only happens in handheld mode, yes?

    Yes, only happens in handheld mode, no problems in docked mode.

    I got the VerrySame issue with mine, i owned a physical copy of this game and the Horizontal lines is annoying for me , icant enjoy the game since i updated it today . i tried to delete the update and try to play again then the lines gone , but i want the new update since it improve the framerate of the game , just those lines are the only annoying.
    Hoping to get new patch update to fix it.
