It's just so much better than BOTW or TOTK. The linear design works a lot better. I love emulation.

A lot sharper and cleaner overall I'm guessing? That's one of the things that made it hard to take a lot of Switch games seriously for me when watching videos, and a lot of Wii games too come to think of it (loved Mario 64 and Sunshine but gave up on Nintendo because of how cheap the Wii felt overall, including the shakiness of the Wiimote's cursor)

I don't care about whether something looks realistic or not (loved Wind Waker when it came out, and it probably helped that it was my first Zelda game so I had no preconceived notions, just appreciated the game for what it was at face vaue), but a lack of clarity in graphics drives me crazy, when it's easier to see stuff IRL than in a game

98237489326472386423984238972398472389472, I might seriously be buying a Switch 2 one of these days because Nintendo games + clear graphics and good controllers would be a dream come true for, dare I say, blowing off some steam at the end of the day

(too much time spent browsing the web lately honestly - I can see why a lot of people choose gaming instead as a chill hobby to unwind after work and family stuff, and I've been looking for the right time to jump back in again over the last 10 years or so)

its fascinating, its Loserish (but kind of draws non-losers in for the drama), involves a topic that for some people has developed over their entire life with a lifetime of good memories and thus tightly-held beliefs, and there are sometimes very dramatic TMZ-style developments and people enjoy the "sports team" aspect of rooting for their chosen Console and the "scores" that they make (exclusives, having the superior version of a Title, Console sales, etc etc)
