Metroid Dread is already playable on PC in 4K via Nintendo Switch emulators

I’m sure that was sarcasm.

As for the debate below gamers are not happy with the emulation community.

I get both sides, in order for sequels / more of a franchise you have to support the game. If sales of the game aren’t high then the company will not continue to make them, so I understand the opposition to emulation.

I also understand those who are pro emulation. There are those who want free games which are individuals who were unlikely to buy the console or games anyway, and there are those who simply want to play their games without being held back by generation old hardware.

It’s a hard middle ground to find. The ethical thing to do is to pay for something you want to play / support. However, at the same time Nintendo does this to themselves making the most low-cost / low-budget hardware while selling it at a premium (No reason the Switch OLED / dock are still $300+), so when you do that you leave yourself open to easy emulation. PS / XB don’t have this issue and they’re not fighting ROM sites with constant legal battle, because they build consoles to push gaming forward which makes them hard to emulate, while Nintendo make consoles with a niche to make millions in profit Day 1.

If you own a Switch and support the game good job it’s how it should be.

If you own a gaming PC and don’t want to play games at 720p @30 – 60fps or lower on a handheld when you can be playing at 1440p / 4K 60fps everything with potential graphic mods and more I understand that as well (I know Metroid is 720p @ 60fps).
