Tears of the Kingdom is exceptionally well-designed, offering mechanics that are so refreshing that they surpass even Breath of the Wild, a game known for its brilliance.

However, the performance limitations of the Nintendo Switch significantly hinder the experience, leading me to believe that the current state of the game upon launch is unacceptable.

Currently, there are no viable alternatives to playing the game other than on the Nintendo Switch, except for using an emulator, which performs poorly. It's puzzling why Nintendo hasn't considered developing a new console with backward compatibility to address these issues.

What is your take on this?

An emulator that "performs poorly"?! Maybe if your PC sucks/is out of date.

I completed TOTK via Yuzu at a near locked 60fps, native 4k auto-HDR with reshade. This was on my HDTV with a pro controller.

If that's poorly performing then I'm gandalf's aunt

Edit: I have TOTK on the switch too. It is absolutely no comparison - the switch is at the point now where you absolutely get a better experience on PC than on the switch. Switch 2 plz, Nintendo.
