Engadget Logo Engadget Japanese version Improved to N64 game of Nintendo Switch Online. Improved graphic reproducibility and reduced input delay

At the end of October last year (2021), Nintendo launched the online service "Nintendo Switch Online + Additional Pack", making it possible to play NINTENDO 64 games on the switch. However, unfortunately, the emulation wasn't perfect, and the reproducibility was inferior to the original version (and the free emulator).

The last Nintendo Switch Online update reportedly improved it considerably.

According to the YouTube channel Modern Vintage Gaming, the input lag in N64 games has been noticeably improved.

For example, "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time" used to have an input lag of 5-6 frames, but after the latest update, the delay has been reduced by 1-2 frames. It's still not perfect, but the lag is definitely less and the game feels better overall.

Also, it can be confirmed that the display of the water temple in Tokioka was incorrect (objects such as trees were reflected in the water in the original game, but it was not in the Switch version). That said, some issues still seem to remain, such as the fog, which was unique to the N64, disappearing from some games (including Tokioka).

[NSO - Nintendo 64]It seems the water in the now-infamous Water Temple room has been fixed in the latest update? I think the fog is still missing, though.Haven't checked the rest of the game to see if any of the other issues have changed, but this is promising. pic.twitter.com/wcoG3hIxu2

Finally, in February next month, N64's greatest masterpiece (and the scariest traumatic work) "The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask" will be delivered. Until then, let's hope Nintendo continues to improve the N64 emulation even further.
