While that’s true, it’s incredibly reductive to a baseline of “nintendo should win because they are powerful and others aren’t”

How many of these emulators were shut down through legal action or threat of legal action? I mean, the list goes on and on

https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/PlayStation_3_emulators

https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/PlayStation_Vita_emulators
https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Xbox_emulators

Oh right, this happened https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Computer_Entertainment,_Inc._v._Connectix_Corp.

Nintendo is using every action possible to stop switch emulation, because, unlike other console companies, they don’t produce any advanced or specific hardware anymore, and they purely survive through their IP.
