It was one thing when enthusiasts were emulating systems near or past EOL, but at this point a Nintendo system is often not the best way to enjoy a Nintendo game.
- account42 3y ago> but at this point a Nintendo system is often not the best way to enjoy a Nintendo game. Perhaps Nintendo should provide a better way to play their games themselves then?
- CalRobert 3y agoI agree, but my point is still that an emulator could reduce Nintendo hardware sales. (And realistically speaking who's going to buy Tears of The Kingdom when they're running it on an emulator?) Of course, my other view is that emulators should be perfectly fine and a great exercise in reverse-engineering, but Nintendo won't see it that way. It would be an interesting experiment to release a high-performance emulator console that only worked with the physical (presumably legally-purchased) game. Perhaps it would fill a similar legal niche to DeCSS - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeCSS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeCSS
