The Wii U Is Faster At Loading Shrines In Breath of the Wild Than The Switch

Now that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is out for both the Wii U and the Switch, more comparisons have been made between the two versions, including the difference of load times.

In a video by YouTube user Master0fHyrule, we get a look at how fast the load times are on the two versions. From the footage, it appears that the Switch is a bit faster at loading the game and starting the quest, while the Wii U is slightly faster when it comes to entering Shrines and continuing on after a death.

Additionally, Digital Foundry has shared a new video comparing the frame rate of Breath of the Wild on both consoles. You can check out the loading times and frame rate for yourself in the following videos.
