The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom's dedicated Switch 2 edition promised to clear up some of the original's rough edges, and it did so with smoother performance even when you're falling through the sky, much quicker load times, and an upped resolution. But the next-gen upgrade also unintentionally broke the game in ways some players are actually having fun with. You don't need to look much further than a newly discovered duplication glitch that's much simpler than any other method.

With a new-gen copy of Tears of the Kingdom, you can pretty easily make almost any item in your inventory multiply. All you need is at least three of whatever item you want to dupe, one item you're willing to sacrifice to make the exchange, any bow, and the Fuse ability, which every post-tutorial player should have access to.
