It’s frustrating that a small number of really good franchises are locked into the Nintendo bullshit business model.
Xenoblade Chronicles, Zelda, Mario, and a couple of other series running on Steam Deck without the emulation nonsense would make me tremendously happy.
The worst part is, I consider myself a bit of a gooner; I like alluring, attractive characters. But that was meant to be a story-based game, and yet it designed so many jokes around attractive women dressing in rags, being clueless, easily offended, and seemed to design the story around an intense contact between a shonen hero and a large-breasted woman.
At least in something like Stellar Blade, they evade the subject because they know there’s nothing constructive to say.
Both BOTW and TOTK are some of the most well optimized games ever made. It’s truly wild that both those games can be played on what’s basically a suped up smart phone from 2016 and look and play as well as they do.
Unless you’re talking about everything else in the game, idk

Zelda and Mario are first party, so I get that, but Xenoblade kills me. I need a rerelease of Xenogears, Xenosaga, and Xenoblade on PC.
Monolithsoft has been 100% owned by Nintendo for over a year.
And they’ve been majority owned by Ninendo since '07.
Well, damn. I didn’t know that. Oh, bother.
The xenoblade game for the switch 1 was okay but the way all the women were depicted was fucking creepy and weird

3 mostly solved this, it was way more reasonable. 2 was a great game with fantastic voice acting that was really diminished by the character models.
Zelda with a competent production company would be amazing.

I was thinking of it not being the same story over and over again for 25 years
I think mask and oracle of ages/seasons was the last time they tried something interesting
Emulators work really well and are very cost effective
Meh most work on emulation. The only thing going legal would do is ease of use (maybe) and more $$ for nintendo.
