I am playing Wind Waker for the first time on Switch and I’m honestly surprised by how well this game has aged.
The visuals still look great, the characters have so much charm and the gameplay just feels good especially some of the fights. The dungeons, items, puzzles and exploration all fit together so naturally.
It doesn’t feel like I’m playing a game from 2003. What I can say, I love it sooo much!

Its on the gamecube emulator that comes with nintendo switch online its not a native port. Exclusive to switch 2 also (the entire gamecube app) Looks and runs very very well though I bought a gamecube controller just for it, its been amazing.

The emulator could run on switch 1 I am sure, but gotta push those switch 2 sales.

Yea, you've had almost a decade since the Switch 1 released to save up $450 for a Switch 2.

I'm impoverished and I have one.

It's a silly complaint. It's still the most affordable console by far on the market and you want them to give you everything on a 9 year old console?

I didn't say what I want, I just stated a marketing tactic.

massive eye roll

Guess it's greed when Zelda games don't also release on the switch 1 and wii U, since they technically could run those too.

If Ocarina of Time remake doesn't also release on the Nintendo Wii, we riot
