Thanks to u/nul9o9@lemmy.dbzer0.com for turning me on to Ship of Harkinian. It's my opinion after messing with it for a half hour that this is THE way to experience OoT again.

Here's a link to their comment if you'd like to upvote it.

"Hey, Mom. Can we have OoT?"

"We already have OoT at home!"

The OoT at home:

I've been running Ocarina when I can. I just completed the Water Temple. All I need now are the Fire and Shadow Medallions, then I can whack Ganondorf.

I don't even have a Switch 2, and I'm not buying it just to be sold nostalgia I can already relive with stuff I've had for like 20 years. That said, I am running it on Gopher64 this time around.

Dude, I wish I could launch this to the top of the thread. I just set it up, and it's so much snappier than running on emulator.

    Yep, that's because it's a decompilation of the original game's code under the hood, which was then recompiled as a native PC application.

    Meaning Nintendo can't do shit about it, unless HarbourMasters decides to start making charging for their PC ports?
