* QRes.exe download: https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/qres.html
You'll need QRes.exe to make this work too (download link below). No install required, just copy QRes.exe into a folder you'd like to save it in.

Change the directory path in the code to suit where you have saved QRes.exe
 
Note: 1: The resolution and refresh rates are tailored to my monitor (4k 240hz). If you have a different refresh rate you want to use across all resolutions, change /r:240 to be what you need (240 = 240hz, 120 = 120hz, 60 = 60hz, etc.). The resolution is self-explanatory, and is in the ChangeResolution(x,y) loop section.
 
Note 2: I've only populated Luigi's Mansion so far but will add more games later, and will try to make the original resolution and hz more smart (currently I hard code 4k 240hz).
 
Note 3: If you have any issues, try setting your display scaling to 100%.
