Pokemon Scarlet has a lot of issues
fun fact it actually runs better on PC than on Switch due to a lack of issues with the system memory (afaik- it might be something else, but I was able to get a pretty consistent rate on PC whereas a family member was regularly dropping below 20 on real hardware)
Most games i've tried on Ryujinx have worked well (BOTW, Odyssey, Three Houses, Scarlet, Shield) but some have shat their pants when played with Yuzu (more recent titles, at least). I think it's all up to the devs of each emulator at this point
 
b-b-but think of all the fun you can make yourself by being able to make things go backwards, put garbage on your weapons, make vehicles out of garbage and clip through ceilings!!!

And the story! THINK OF THE ENTIRELY NEW ZELDA STORY!!!
I mean, one of the appeals of BOTW for me at least was the fact that its systems allowed for emergent gameplay and creative solutions, so I'm not quite sure why this is a complaint.

And the story does have me intrigued based on what snippets I've seen, even though I'm not expecting anything amazing on that front.
 
Switch games run better emulated. What's the downside? No big clunky "handheld" that makes you look like an autist in public?
Just saying, Switch owners don't feel the need to go to PC topics to brag about their gaming habits.

It's almost like its infinitely more autistic to spend thousand of bucks just so you can brag about running games at uncapped framerates and 4K resolutions--features most gamers don't give a fuck about and aren't really much of a benefit and which only a handful of titles even benefit from anyway--and like maybe you have some insecurity about the fact that other people are still actually playing games and having fun while having only spent a fraction of the price.

That's not the point, the point is switch games run better emulated than on intended hardware, plus you don't have to play a subscription fee for 30yo games or online play.
 
And to be fair, frame drops and glitches are more of a feature when it comes to Suda51 games.
As long as the game is fun in its core and has a decent art direction, I can honestly look past the framedrops and 30fps limit.
Besides what I cited in my earlier post, the other problems I have with No More Heroes 3 is that none of the alien bosses strike as interesting so far and it doesn't help that two of them (8th & 7th rank) get killed off by human bosses who aren't any better either. I also prefer the old cel-shading look of the previous games, everyone look ugly in NMH3 and not just the aliens themselves.

The combat gets pretty repetitive, there don't seem to be other sabers that give different combo movesets, and it doesn't have the traditional stages that helped to build anticipation for the bosses either.

This is a far cry from the first game and I feel wanting to do a new playthrough of No More Heroes 1 than continuing further in 3.
Again it's a good thing I've rented that game because it would have been a bigger disappointment otherwise.

I believe you have issues to understand that people may have different priorities than yours, thus choosing other platforms that could be more practical in personal use and fit their lifestyles better. I find playing japanese games in the original text language to be far more important than framerate itself but that's how I roll, and you do you.
 
What's the matter? I just played 3 Nintendo games today, for free. How much a month are you paying again?
You do realize you don't actually need a subscription to actually use the Switch, right?

Also, Switch Online isn't monthly--its once a year.

Thirdly, you're coming here just so you can attempt to rub it in people's faces that "you bought a switch when you could have a gaming PC!" a PC that you're using to play.... Nintendo games. You know Sega's games have native PC ports, rights?
 
not many people know about this but it was rumored that the nintendo switch hardware is the same hardware ouya (a failed android console) uses.

maybe the rumor is true? who knows.

Most of the Switch library is catalogued as unplayable in the Yuzu database and the developers refer to the emulator as "experimental". If I spend $2500 on hardware and the game I want to play crashes at the start menu, it doesn't matter if the menu was hitting 4k 60 with SMAA. That's not an upgrade.

My nigger, we've known what's inside of a Switch for 6 years. They both use an Nvidia Tegra SoC but it's not at all the same hardware.

Yuzu is garbage and by trannies. Ryuijinx is the one everybody should be using, its better in every regard except for when games first come out and the Yuzu devs throw together a broken fix to make it run before Ryuijinx

The lead Ryujinx developer is a small anime girl avatar. All emulators are created by always online autists so unfortunately troons are inevitable. Ryujinx and Yuzu are pretty comparable and are seeing a lot of improvement but both are still considered experimental with a large chunk of the Switch library in an unplayable state. I don't have any sort of religious views on how people run the software they wanna run. Everything has its pros and cons.

does "a large chunk" refer to only the first-party stuff or does it also include all the eshop indie garbage the Switch has to its name?

Most of the first party stuff runs fine. It just takes a few days for brand new games to be patched into running properly. I think they had Xenoblade 3 running before it even came out because it leaked a week early. Metroid Prime was running with no patches day 1, just with a few broken shaders. The switch is not unique hardware, its not hard to emulate. I own a modded switch and I'm still going to choose to emulate some things over using the switch
