Super Mario Bros. Wonder Spotted on Emulators Running in 4K at 60fps

This decision, while great for creativity, means the Switch's graphical processing power is now years behind the curve, which explains why the PC Master Race can easily emulate Nintendo games. Of course, the games still offering countless hours of entertainment and fun brings to question what the point of the hardware race even is, but we digress.

Fortunately, Nintendo does not need to do what PCs and consoles are doing to stay relevant. If anything, the Japanese company has proved that it is the indisputable king when it comes to first-party titles, a fact that was officially confirmed through court documents during the FTC hearings.

Titles from Nintendo have often outsold other console exclusives by a wide margin, which makes sense since many people who buy Nintendo consoles, especially the Switch, buy them for these exclusives specifically.

If you take a look at the top 10 best-selling Nintendo Switch games, you'll notice that six of the games on the list are first-party Nintendo titles, including two of this year's biggest Nintendo titles, Animal Crossing: New Horizons and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

In any case, Nintendo has taken steps to curb piracy and emulation by adding the anti-piracy software Denuvo to its Developer Portal. Though we doubt Nintendo itself will be using this absolutely horrendous malmiddleware for its own games, we're certain third-party developers will not have the same reservations.

Though PC players might have already gotten a taste of Super Mario Wonder in high resolution, the true home of Mario remains Nintendo, no matter what anyone says. Super Mario Bros. Wonder is scheduled to release on October 20.
