When Breath of the Wild launched in 2017, gamers had been playing on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One for years, and PlayStation 4 Pro had already been out for months. Breath of the Wild was developed for the Wii U as the Wii U's major Zelda installment Nintendo tends to release at least one of per major console release.īreath of the Wild ran so much worse on Wii U because the Wii U came out in 2012 with the relative power and performance of an Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3. Breath of the Wild was ported to Switch, not developed for Switch.
What you may not know, however, is that Breath of the Wild isn't a Nintendo Switch game. This is all thanks to emulation, but not the kind of emulation you might think: Nintendo Switch emulators, like Ryujinx or Yuzu, do exist and can play Breath of the Wild, but performance isn't great, there aren't many features, and these emulators themselves are still relatively early on in their development, so they aren't super stable, either. Plus, you won't need powerful hardware to do any of this. You can even install, with just a couple of clicks, a wide variety of mods. You can push out graphics settings far beyond the detail and draw distance of the Switch. On PC, you can play Breath of the Wild with unlimited FPS, in whatever aspect ratio, and at whatever resolution you want. First off, no, Nintendo never officially released a PC port for Breath of the Wild, but thanks to the love, drive, and ingenuity of modders, fans, and developers across the world, the community has created a better way to play Breath of the Wild on PC than even an official port could provide.
