Pokemon Scarlet and Violet technical woes have left me worried about Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet did what I didn’t think possible – make me worried about the quality of an incoming Zelda game. From what we’ve seen, Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom looks great, but can the aging Switch really deliver a blockbuster sequel? I love the best Zelda games – having kicked off the obsession in my youth with a double-bill release of Wind Waker and Ocarina of Time on the GameCube, Phantom Hourglass on the Nintendo DS, and moving steadily through the more recent entries like 2017’s stellar Breath of the Wild. But the latest mainline games in the Pokemon franchise have me concerned about what BOTW’s long-awaited sequel will be like to play on the Nintendo Switch’s aging hardware.
