## Key points

- New footage claims a steady 60 fps on PC.
- Earlier tests still showed flickering and stutters.
- The emulator remains highly experimental.

## Summary

New footage from X user akakevinvro claims the *Ocarina of Time* remake runs at a steady 60 frames per second on a PC emulator, just hours after its official Switch 2 release. The claim points to rapid progress, though the game’s performance on PC remains experimental and the footage does not establish a stable, playable experience.

Earlier videos showed gameplay improving from around 20–30 fps to between 30 and 60 fps over 12 hours, with flickering and stuttering still present. The tests used Lichii, an experimental open-source Switch and Switch 2 emulator; one ran on a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 64 GB of RAM and an RTX 4080. The game’s files were reportedly dumped before launch, and Nintendo has previously taken legal action against emulation projects.
