Thats a great game as well, but I want a really epic Zelda that I haven't played in about a decade and a half.

If they did a proper remake, Metroid Prime remastered style I'd go for Twilight Princess. But if it's just the Wii U version, I don't see the point. Same for Wind Waker HD.

A proper Ocarina of Time or Majoras Mask remake would be epic.

This is of interest, to me at least.

So Nvidia unveiled DLSS 4 and said that it would work for older rtx series cards going all the way back to the 20 series, but without frame generation.

Switch 2 has been compared to a 30s or 20 series periodically.

DLSS 4 uses a transformer model for super resolution, rather than the cheaper to use CNN model of DLSS 3 and below.

But Nvidia said it was computationally 4x more expensive. There's been people flip flopping over this asking if it's 4x more intensive for training or for rendering.

Digital Foundry recently replied to a user question as to whether Switch 2 could use this model. They said before it was unlikely as they would likely use a more lightweight model. Then Rich said fundamentally it could as an rtx with tensor cores, but would it be practical as its more expensive to use computationally?

So DLSS 4 recently was released for the public to use, a famiboards user has an rtx 2070 and has been testing DLSS 4 with the transformer model on it. Mostly at 1080p and it seems to work and work well without a massive drain on resources. He also says it looks great on a 65 inch 4k tv.
