The game has a 98, so I would say its worth the money.

You could always buy the game, and not the crappy console it comes attached with. That's an option too.

Thats fair enough.

This will be cool. I'm not gonna have a system powerful enough any time soon, though.

And for those still confused, emulation ≠ piracy.

If the owner of the intellectual property can still make money off the game in question, what is the meaningful difference between emulation and piracy?

Piracy is illegally acquiring and playing a game in which you did not pay for. Emulation is playing a piece of software on hardware it wasn't made for. It's really as simple as that. You can play a legal game on a Wii U. You can play a legal game on an emulator. You can play an illegal game on a Wii U. You can play an illegal game on an emulator.

Case in point. I bought both Xenoblade Chronicles and Skyward Sword for the Wii. It was around this time that emulators were good enough to play these games on a PC. So I did, with superior graphics. My cousin definitely pirated Skyward Sword and played it on his Wii. I emulated. He didn't. He pirated. I didn't.

How stable is this emulator? Dolphin had a horrible memory leak until a couple years ago

Dolphine is insanely stable.

CEMU isnt yet,... and its too demanding (for me anyways, Id need a new PC).

Easier (&cheaper) to just play it on the Wii U.

Great news for people who dont want to give Nintendo any money for their efforts I guess.

Buying a WiiU and Switch copy prior to getting in on PC BotW. I paid price of admission.

Ah, I see. Fair enough.
