Tears of the Kingdom (self.games)

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?

TotK is absolutely amazing, no questions. However, while I have certainly noticed a few hiccups the performance has been more than adequate. Sure, it's not as good as any of the PC games I own but it's also not trying to be.
