heh you are the first person i heard say this, even a developer who is a huge nintendo fan BTW, say's other wise. I mean just look at zelda on wiiu when it goes in karoki forest it doesn't have nearly as much as going as GTAV, yet its start running at 20fps, here is whattaht developer said in regards to GTAV port on switch, and switch has a much better cpu then WII u.

"GTA5 has lots of simulated people and lots of cars and lots of other simulated systems running concurrently. The city feels alive. PS2 would never been able to achieve that. Last gen console versions had much less cars and people on the streets. You can't really simulate rush hour traffic without being able to simulate enough cars. Highways simply don't have enough cars in the last gen version to cause traffic jams. The city feels less alive. 

Haven't got experience from Switch, but 3x ARM cores are likely a significant downgrade compared to 7x x64 cores for this kind of highly parallel city simulation workload."

You see, this is why people accuse you of cherrypicking. GTA V on 7th gen console dip below 30 constantly. The PS3 version almost never stays 30 during driving of all things. Since you love DF so much: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPzMZ_Cz7iI Most of the fps issues you mentioned on the Switch have been patched away already. Repeating "but b-but korok forest" doesn't change the fact that BotW is stable throughout, while GTA V on last gen is not. The visuals and IQ (lol) of BotW and GTA V is nothing but subjective because of the difference between artistic choices. Breath of the Wild has a different style of visual artstyle which emphasizes brighter and more vibrant colours. The amount of assets, even the fields with many blades of grass, is much more than any version on the PS3 or the 360 can handle in a playable form.

frame rate was only improved in the switch version, not the wiiu. this isn't going no where, until there is zelda port on ps3/360 or GTAV port on wiiu, this is all baseless speculation, and a waste of time.
