Nintendo's Tears of the Kingdom is back with a shiny new coat on the Switch 2, promising "buttery smooth" performance and enhanced visuals. But are players cheering or crying over the cost? Join us as we dive deep into the community reaction to the "Tears of the Kingdom on Switch 2 Edition."

Commenters aren't holding back, debating intensely whether the cost of the game/console itself is justified. Many argue the performance boost, offering "locked 4k60fps" or at least much smoother gameplay, is a "dream upgrade" or finally makes the game "playable". They praise the sharper image and improved visuals.

However, the sentiment of "Tears of the wallet" is strong. Critics feel this "should have been a free update", questioning "What work, exactly, did they put into this upgrade to justify this price?". The absence of a Master Mode is a frequent point of contention, seen as a "missed opportunity" or even "criminal lowkey".

We'll explore the mixed feelings about the included Zelda Notes app, which some find helpful for completionists or lore, while others feel it's a "gimmick" or just "stupid", questioning why features aren't integrated directly into the game.

We'll also touch on the common thread of players revisiting the game, some feeling burnt out or suffering "BotW fatigue", but now motivated to start fresh or finish the game on the new hardware.

Is this simply Nintendo "milking it" with "anti-consumer" practices? Or is it a "fantastic upgrade" that makes a "masterpiece" even better? Tune in for the full breakdown of the community's passionate and divided opinions!
