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?

I think the performance isn’t very good, especially coming from PS5.

However, my opinion is that TotK is an incredible game despite its performance problems. It’s a testament to how great the game is that it can be enjoyed so much even with the performance issues.

I would say it’s one of the most “fun” games I’ve ever played, even though it looks so much worse than games like Demons Souls, etc.
