Why emulate? They could simply publish their games natively for PC and iOS/Android if they wanted to. They choose not to do so to control their platform end to end. That control nets them 30% from all other publishers who publish on the Switch, while they pay 0% themselves.
The real issue is that they didn't update the Switch hardware for so long that the Steam Deck became a better Switch than the Switch. Maybe they'll fix that with the Switch 2.
- papichulo2023 3y agoProb the source codes of most games being emulated are lost
- emodendroket 3y agoI am almost certain the source code of recently-released Nintendo Switch titles has not been lost.
