I’ve been incredibly happy lately dumping my GameCube/Wii games (using a softmodded Wii) and running them on PC with Dolphin. Perfectly legit way of playing games I already own, no matter what Nintendo says, and this is also a way to futureproof my GC/Wii collection the way I can actually trust.
I’m sceptical about how close to Dolphin the official emulation experience on Switch will be able to reach. Based on the N64 debacle, I don’t have massively high hopes. Either way, wouldn’t be paying extra.
So you need to maintain an online membership to retain access to these games, right?
You will own nothing and be happy, I guess.
Same as the current Switch online, Microsoft’s game pass, and whatever Sony offers then?
And they’ll only port like 6 games, ever.
It being exclusive to Switch 2 is kind of lame. It’ll be a feature of a subscription you can’t use unless you find and purchase new hardware. And most games probably won’t play well unless you purchase the Switch GameCube controller which will be constantly out of stock like the n64 controller.
i want a full emulator for the legend of zelda collectors edition that came with the initial gamecube release.
that would be a dream.
