12 Things We Learned At The Game Awards 2016

12. Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Has A Disappointing Frame Rate On Wii U

Nintendo Treehouse's Bill Trinen and Nate Bihldorff were on hand to show off some new The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild gameplay, and as enjoyable as the footage was (even if it didn't reveal too much in the way of new info), fans just couldn't stop talking about the worryingly low frame rate.

The footage, captured on a Wii U rather than a Nintendo Switch, frequently sinks down to the low-20s, making running and combat appear disappointingly choppy.

While it's extremely likely that the game will run at 1080p 30fps on the Switch, Wii U owners might struggle a little more with the performance. What a shame.
