Skyward Sword grew on me. Especially w/o the motion controls.

I've tried it and can confirm that you can enable HDR using Special K and it looks beautiful.
First, set the API to DX12 in the game settings. Then, download and extract SpecialK64.dll in the game directory, renaming it to dxgi.dll. In the game, open Special K with Ctrl+Shift+Backspace, click on HDR, then HDR Setup and enable scRGB. You'll then need to change the display mode for the change to take effect, just toggle full-screen on and off in the game settings.
Then adjust the settings to your liking in Special K's HDR menu. The settings that have worked best for me are Brightness Scale at 2.0x and Middle Gray at -5%.

I think TP, WW and SS both suffered greatly from anti-QOL. SS in particular had insane choices, like re-forcing slow "New item" pop ups for rupee types every session. Strip a lot of the annoyances away and you're left with fun games.
I'm sure part of the reason people love OOT is that it doesn't get in its own way as much as the others, but even that benefits from some QOL features. MM even more so.

It has QoL features, many of which are turned on by default.
The "console accuracy" bit is about speedrunning tricks like L-Targeting the boomerang and superjumping to it.

This is turned off by default in this port. You only have to view the message once.

Can you use save states on this? TP is one of my favourite Zelda games, but I ain't playing it again for the nth time without those.

You wouldn't happen to have a list of all the games that have been ports, recomps, decomps, and fan made that you've covered, would you? Somebody asked in this thread and honestly I'm interested too

The thing that I'll never understand is how Nintendo of all devs deliberately went out of their way to make those games so annoying.
All three have some egregious design choices that were completely unnecessary and that Nintendo surely knew better not to do. It's not a coincidence almost all of those were corrected in the remasters.

A quick simple guide on how to add a texture pack.
TLDR: copy the GZ2 folder to %AppData%\TwilitRealm\Dusk\texture_replacements
Played it for a bit and it works great. 240fps @ 2560x1440 and 8x shadow resolution + 4k textures without a hitch.
Evanft mentioned turning on FXAA in Nvidia Control panel, added that and 16x anisotropic filtering too. Does it actually work? Dunno! But it looks fantastic.
Tried to play the game emulated twice before, but the 30fps was such a tough pill to swallow (it's a suppository!). No excuse now, except poorly aged controls and mechanics.
