The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is finally smooth on PC using Nintendo Switch emulators during both gameplay and cut-scenes.
I have a launch switch and a PC. I’ve mostly played on PC, and also recently got a steam deck, so add that to the mix. The SD isn’t much better than a switch, especially with the translation errors of emulation, but it’s still better and a better screen for sure. PC is no contest better. CPU is the bottleneck on performance for the game, so while I have a Ryzen 7, Yuzu barely uses it, at most 30% utilization. My 3060ti is running at almost max, but it’s also doing a solid 1440p60 with very little errors. What little graphical inconsistencies there are are massive outweighed by the better resolution, and higher framerate.
What version of TOTK are you using?
1.1.2
What do you prefer about the Steam Deck’s screen over the Switch? They should be the same (horizontal) resolution and I’ve heard that the color on the steam deck isn’t that good.
I’d guess that the 60Hz refresh rate is the top factor.
You can fix the color with software mods, 60hz refresh is better, the resolution is a bit higher (though if you’re emulating a switch game, you’re going to run it at the switch resolution, and it’s a bigger screen than the launch switch I have. The OLED might be a different topic
