I’ll wait for an emulator

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip -2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Honestly, I won't bother. I only tried a few Switch games on emulator out of curiosity, and never played long. They don't make anything interesting enough for me to want. I don't get why people feel the need for Nintendo.

The mainline Zelda games were fantastic emulated, beautiful with graphics mods and at 1440p/60-120FPS! I also really enjoyed Link’s Awakening. I played Monster Hunter Rise on my regular switch for like 140 hours, but I wish I had waited for the computer version.

I’m definitely passing on Switch 2. I only ever played my Switch docked and always wished I was just playing it in the computer instead.
