That long intro makes TP nice the first time you play it, or when you replay it after -holy moly- 18 years in my case.
But replaying it shortly after makes the intro pretty boring.

On the subject of colours/lighting, not sure your emulator is to blame because this is one of two things I didn’t like about that remake, and I played it on Wii U. They made everything neon and cranked light effects to the max.
The other thing was removing the Tingle tuner, that was a lot of fun in coop on the GameCube, and replacing it with a soulless online message system that didn’t even last for the whole short life of the console (because it was tied to miiverse, a service they killed after a few years).
The game does have a long intro, but IMO Twilight Princess was even worse. That game took forever to start.

I played originally on Wii U but wasn’t sure if it was like that on there. It’s a shame because other than the gaudy bloom I’d say the Wii U version is one of the best ways to play it in the modern age.
And I do agree with Twilight Princess. I have still never finished it. I’ll start it, and maybe make it through the opening, before somehow losing my save somehow. I’ve legit been through maybe 10 different save files at this point. It’s a shame because I want to give it a fair chance but I seem cursed to forever lose my TP Saves

IMO the cool thing about TP is the weirdness. There are those eerie choirs, even in the jingles, there are some quite grotesque designs, and a few quite disturbing and puzzling cutscenes.
It’s definitely the Zelda game for weird moods, maybe not as crazy as Majora’s Mask but more like a constant feeling of something being not right.

I have fond memories of Twilight Princess’s weirdness and art style because when it launched I was a young kid and my Dad played through the whole thing with me watching. That weird art style is so charming in a way
