RUMOR - Nvidia Shield version of Zelda: Twilight Princess is handled through emulation

GN Version 5.0

It seems like every month, there's another new tidbit about the GameCube games available on the Nvidia Shield. Today the saga continues, with an interesting tidbit about The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

Those more technically inclined than I have taken a look behind-the-scenes on the Shield version of Twilight Princess, only to discover that the game is being emulated. Why is this a point worth bringing up? It would indicate that Nintendo has a working GameCube emulator for the Shield. It's not too far of a logic jump to think that they could bring that to other platforms like the Switch.

Of course, that's all just speculation for now. Many people are hoping Nintendo brings GameCube games to the Switch. While we wait for any official news on that, this tidbit at least gives a glimmer of hope.
