| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Mario Kart 8 |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | Graphics comparisons are important to the reception and marketing, as they were a popular point of contention for many outlets. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
Any non-copyrighted work can not, by definition, showcase the graphics of the work, only copyrighted material can. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | Used at as low a resolution as possible in only this article |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
Use of this screenshot in only this article will not harm any commercial opportunities for the owner. |
| Other information | While the resolution may not be as low as possible while maintaining broad gameplay details, as significant commentary of the comparison is centered around texture differences, a viewer needs to see the image at a high enough resolution to be able to make out smaller details, like textures. This resolution has been manually selected to be in that "Goldilocks zone", both respecting commercial opportunities and copyright of the owner, while allowing for commentary compliant with Fair Use. |
