Players complain that Switch 2 has a bad experience in playing NGC games! Not as good as a simulator

Jun 18 2025

  To attract players who love classic consoles to upgrade Switch 2, Nintendo has added a new NGC (Nintendo GameCube) game library for NSO senior members, but the simulation performance of the new console disappoints some players.

A player who started playing when the F-Zero GX (GameCube Classic Racing Game) was released in 2003 and had a cumulative game time of more than 1,000 hours said on the Reddit forum that the official simulation had problems such as input delay and excessive operation sensitivity.

The other players' feedback includes: There are screen errors and performance problems in works such as "The Legend of Zelda: The Staff of the Wind" and "Soul Ability 2", operation deviations in racing games, and difficulty in precise defense in fighting games, and additional delays in cloud streaming.

Due to the above problems, some players say that the official simulation performance is even worse than the folk Dolphin simulator. This cross-platform simulator not only runs smoother when playing GameCube games, but also provides screen and control customization options far beyond the official ones.
