There's a lot of buzz surrounding the Zelda franchise

You mean about this? ...
 

I enjoyed all of these back in the day, sure.  Windwaker was one of my favorites, as well.  I haven't played the Breath of the Wilds or Switch titles yet, though.  It sounds like a thing to plunge into -- the whole franchise -- in the future.  I may decide to grab a Switch 2 some day, if emulation isn't a great option then.

That. When I saw that I had to measure how powerful is the damn Switch 2. It's ranked between the PS4 and PS5. Compared to PC it's as powerful as an RTX 2050. ( Soft ! Which isn't such a bad thing if you're looking to run S2 games on PC with your current hardware. ) 

Here's my prediction. There will be a Remake for Majora's Mask.

If they remake Super Metroid, it won't be a good time to die. I can be 100 years old and if they finally said Super Metroid remake is coming, I'm not dying anytime soon. 

Never played Breath of the Wild or Skyward Sword and most Zelda games either. ( There are 21 games in the franchise. If you have the time it'd take months to a year to complete them all )

I first emulated a Switch a few years ago just to play the Link's awakening remake, then right as I finished it, The Legend of Zelda Echoes of Wisdom came out, same style and visuals. I played for awhile but then never made it far and put it away.

Another game I had to play on Switch. Pikmin 4. 

.

Last Night I started playing Shinobi: Art of Vengeance and I'm thinking this will be boring. Then I couldn't put it down and it's my favorite game right now.

Looking at high quality video footage of this game is not even close to playing it in person.  

Already up to 6 Switch games. The other 3 are ran in YUZU, though Eden did offer to transfer them over. I never liked the switch Emulators, so I asked which is the best Switch Emulator, and it said Eden. I recommend it. 

Just got Shinobi and already the playtime is nearly 3 and a half hours. The file size is also bigger than 2.8 since there's another 6GB of maybe DLC or the game itself in the folder.

R-Type Final was a banger so I got the sequel and tried it for 12 minutes. 

Honestly don't have enough time to play these games. Playing them too much will steal our dreams, there are projects on the backburner that need to get done so I'll limit playtime to the weekends.

I'm also surprised I'm finding interest in Nintendo. Something about that company and the direction the world is going.

- They always use less powerful hardware for their consoles and unlike the others they sell the consoles at a profit.

- They make cartridges and from the looks of it, they always will and won't make the same mistakes Sony does.

- They will charge more for the game if it's on a cartridge. Just a little more. That's fair.

- While most don't care these days, the gaming world has those who want the option to keep games on disc or some kind of media.

- It's 2026 hardware costs have gone up. Right now a PS5 is going for $1000. This will shift consumers to get the S2.

- They are going to win the console war. Steam Machine won't do it, nor will Sony or Microsoft, they are all expensive in the land of inflation.

- They probably did use Ai to make the Ocarina of Time remake, as it really doesn't seem to be humanly possible to make something look that good on a 2050 and make it run at 60 fps.

- Switch 2.... In this case is selling a Switch game ( Same game that got me into this shit) and appreciating in value, like many of their other Nintendo games do.

- I'm deadass getting a Switch 2, just for 2 games. It will live behind my screen and behave as a stationary console. 

- A PS5 is as powerful as an RTX 2070. It's going to be possible to tweak GTA VI to run on Switch 2 and it will look great even if it's slightly toned down.

- GTA VI is the one every developer and game company should fear, respect, and aspire to be in terms of volume and popularity. The 2nd most anticipated game in the world now is the Ocarina of time remake. GTA VI will cost $150 dollars.

So yes. That company is on it's way to a glorious victory. They don't give up on their franchises even if one of their titles doesn't do well in the market, it's coming back and with each passing wave it'll get gobbled up. That approach is paying off.
