Eh, you're applying generalizations universally. These last couple weeks, I literally bought Zelda Echoes of Wisdom day one, even bought NSO vouchers so I can buy the next big game that comes out. Day one, I dumped the game from my own modded switch, and started playing it on Ryujinx rather than on my Switch.

I modded the game to change the resolution to always 1080p native, remove the double buffered vsync issue to smooth out the framerate and let VRR work, boosted LODs for better distant assets, and swapped the UI for Xbox controls. Ryujinx also let me play at 2x internal resolution, so I could run the game at native 4k.

My game looks sharper, runs smoother, and is a lot of fun to tinker with. I've had a blast checking gamebanana every day for new mods, or for Ryujinx patches. I love it, and I'm preferring that experience to Switch. I'm also getting fun stuff like discord rich presence, and being able to record with my GPU driver, stream my gameplay to discord, play with a controller I prefer to a Pro Controller, everything.

I'm also looking forward to tinkering with mods for unlimited echoes once I beat the game. I'm more than happy to pay for the game, but this is much more fun for me, and trades blows with the real hardware experience well enough that I'd much rather play here than on Switch.
