Yeah, there are lots of people (like me) who don't have any other Nintendo console other than Switch, so getting them all accessible would be good, but as they say, it's Nintendo, so who knows.

If you have a PC, they run very well in an emulator. Dolphin even runs on Android, though I've never tried it so I can't judge its performance.

Dolphin runs pretty badly on low-end hardware in general. That being anything worse than mid-grade desktop hardware.

Depending on the specific game, it may be playable, but I wouldn't bet on it.

As a specific example, I have a laptop with an i5-1335u, and it can't run Twilight Princess playably at all, and Metroid Prime 2 doesn't work great either.

But my previous 10600k desktop had no issues.

And as a general rule, phones are less powerful than even low-end desktop hardware.

I would prefer to just wait for the official release 😀

Thanks for the suggestion though!
