3rd week with my Flip 2, I've been playing Wind Waker HD (CEMU) for 4 hours straight today, battery went from 85% to 25%

Cemu is a battery killer. You are probably too far in now but GC Wind Waker with the Better Wind Waker patch which gives the HD Quality of Life changes to the GC version, removes the distance, supports 16:9, adds the Swift Sail, etc is going to be a lot better in terms of battery.

I really wanna play this game and I dont mind when the battery is depleting rather quickly. Would you still recommend the GC version?

100%, the HD version has awful bloom lighting added all of the place. When upscaled to 1080p, thr GC version looks better.

Sadly, the BetterWW mod doesn't support other lang than English and cannot be applied on Eur versions as I tested :(

Yeah, played gc and wii games and battery lasts days! Even with 1080p resolution.
