    Probably to use the emulator for their own shit, since they keep reselling the old games over and over…fuck Nintendo.

    Somewhere in the future there will be an information leak or some other reliable source of information from which it will be made known that at some point Nintendo lost years of code due to pure incompetence of some bored employee (even better if an executive ordered the destruction of such data on basis of being obsolete) and had to viciously attack this creator and their site in order to attain a viable way to rebuild their original technology, after realizing people want to play old titles.

      HDD storage used to be expensive. It wouldn’t be any surprise to hear they did it to save on costs.

      considering someone got 2tb worth of data going back to the snes era, aka the gigaleak. there’s a 0.00001% chance of that actually happening

    Is there any other maintained switch emulator currently? I did not play anything since the last Pokémon but that was on Yuzu…
