I played the Switch 2 Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake on PC without an emulator, and it runs shockingly well
It runs almost as good as it does on the Switch 2 (and even better sometimes).
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time has been remade for the Nintendo Switch 2, featuring overhauled visuals, improved controls, and various modern tweaks to the original Nintendo 64 classic. According to Tom's Guide, the remake is stunning and provides a way for players to experience the acclaimed title in a more modern format.
The game launched a little over a week ago and is playable on high-end gaming PCs through bleeding-edge Switch 2 emulators such as Lichii and Fritzi, which are forks of the Eglantine emulator. XDA Developers notes that players are currently pursuing various methods to run the game smoothly on PC, including traditional emulation and static recompilation.
