The important thing to remember is that not a single person posting in this thread should be hindered by whatever so-called input lag exists because no one here is good enough at video games for it to matter.

Same with framerate drops. Just shut up and have fun.

That's why the N64 is the best system, everything runs at 5 FPS giving a gamer like me the chance to keep up with the action.

lol what are they doing

its apparantly using the same emulator 3d all stars mario 64 used but uhhh yeah. this is funny because for the longest time people wanted an n64 classic so nerd could get a proper working n64 emulator and then a proper accurate one gets done this year and nintendo just release a poo poo one instead.

What the hell lol do you work for Nintendo or any major corporation for that matter? I'm a "corpo" as my unemployed friends like to call me and this is extremely weird behavior.

They have shown that corporate logos light up the exact same parts of the brain that religious icons do. Maybe that can help us begin to understand why you're having this reaction

E: trying to find an academic source because unsourced commentary is worse than trash, so far I just found this BBC article promoting a documentary vaguely quoting "neuroscientists": https://www.bbc.com/news/business-13416598

Google scholar had something a little bit more promising but it was from some spiritual journal which is also kind of a waste of time imo.

The point is criticism is cool and good when it comes to consumerism and no poster should take it personally even if your uncle works for Nintendo

Admittedly I'm an idiot casual and probably wouldn't notice most of these issues, but we also can acknowledge some of this poo poo sucks?

Why we gotta be the this way, Nintendo thread?

Seriously. I looked at those three screen shots of OoT and thought "oh wow, they got rid of the annoying fog to hide the inability to render poo poo in the distance, and the edges look more crisp!" because I'm a loving idiot and maybe don't care that much.

Like I have no idea why this is so hard. I also can't ever get N64 games to emulate properly in the first place, so it just running at the same frame rate as the old games is enough of a win for me

Supposedly uses the exact same mechanism but I refuse to believe this. Nintendo is not that incompetent are they?? The one report I saw did not open it up/break it down they just went by look/feel

If so do you guys realize this means they are producing two controllers with known defects in their joystick? Honestly on a corpodrone level it's a huge achievement to be able to get away with something like this

Go Nintendo!

even if the issues are minor i feel like it's a pretty valid criticism to have, especially of a company that is so litigious of any preservation efforts. if you're gonna charge me 50 bucks every year and do your best from keeping me playing the games any other ways i think it's pretty fair to criticize graphical glitches and input lag and shoddy multiplayer.

im still planning on buying the animal crossing dlc and all the new pokemons and rune factory 5 and have both a switch and a switch lite so this isn't from some "i wasn't going to buy this anyway" perspective. i am pretty deep in nintendos pockets, i give nintendo a lot of my money , and im pretty happy even with games most people criticize (pokemon swsh, dark souls on switch, etc.).
it just seems like kind of a half baked implementation for the price point and it's killed any excitement i had about playing n64 games in bed

Immediately obvious is that it uses a 4-wire connector rather than the 6-wire on original N64 controllers, so it's not a 1:1 clone

🚣RowboatMan: ❄️Freezing time🕰️ is an old P.I. 🥧trick...

Some of us truly have no other way, currently, to emulate N64 games, so this whole "you're excited about roms! Lol!" bullshit is just that.

Right now, if I want to play (some) N64 games, I'd have to boot up my modded Wii, and let me tell you, the unofficial emulation there is atrocious. loving Mario Tennis can barely run, and there's invisible poo poo everywhere. I'm glad it's now available on the Switch, despite the button weirdness. I'm looking forward to playing more games. Is the emulation perfect? No, but it's better than what I've got otherwise.

And if you have a pc that's giving you crisp and perfect N64 emulation, congrats! You don't need this service then, obviously.
