Let's say, hypothetically, that I wanted to play Sonic Superstars but I consider the price tag of 90 fucking Australian dollaridoos to be highway robbery.

How good is Switch emulation right now? Do I need a good PC or will my mid-range potato be good enough?

In this purely hypothetical situation, I don't want to mod my Switch because I can't be bothered with the hassle of worrying about updates or the internet bricking it.

P.S. Sega is such a shitty company (the higher-ups, not the based workers that unionized). They've been getting super greedy as shit the past few years with their pricing and day one DLC.

You only need a VPN when you are torrenting. Direct downloads are much harder to track. Also fyi, cpu performance is by far more important than graphics performance for switch emulation. https://rentry.org/128bb
