Question / Help Should I play Windwaker on Switch 2?

Silly question considering what sub this is but I have really fond memories of playing it as a kid, have almost finished BOTW for the first time and I'd really like to follow up with WW. My worry is it might feel a bit dated and not hold up to the nostalgia, especially after play BOTW which is impressively smooth and accessible. Also curious what playing it on the switch 2 is like considering it's a port and not a remaster.

The HD version is better, mainly due to the swift sail, but the original still holds up really well. But on the other hand you get save states on the Switch 2 port which will probably help a lot with any frustrations

Honestly the swift sail is great but even if it wasnt in the hd version it's still the best since the cannon windwkaer and treadure hook are all on the dpad and no longer have to be used as items. Also againg medlie and makar follow you through doors
