i want a full emulator for the legend of zelda collectors edition that came with the initial gamecube release.
that would be a dream.
So you need to maintain an online membership to retain access to these games, right?
You will own nothing and be happy, I guess.
And they’ll only port like 6 games, ever.
Drip fed over the course of several years.
And the game you specifically wanted to play? It’s one of the last ones to be dropped.
Same as the current Switch online, Microsoft’s game pass, and whatever Sony offers then?
Yes. Does that refute my point?
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.
