I donât see how anyone didnât see this coming seeing as Nintendo has used emulation since the Wii

Would people out there just feel so much better if theyâd had somebody for-real port the old games to the Switch?

I think itâs more that people take issue with Nintendo using emulation for their ports when theyâre so hostile to the efforts of the emulation community, game archivists, etc. Just feels pretty hypocritical of them.

They write their own emulators, though, donât they?
Ugh, thereâs stuff in that thread misinterpreting a phrase âlazy texture replaceâ which is programmer jargon for swapping assets as theyâre loaded

The gamers believe that there is a man who lives in Japan whose name is Nintendo and heâs a very lazy man indeed.

On the one hand, on an emotional level, I get it, but on the other hand I really canât see how this is hypocritical. My understanding isnât that Nintendo is hostile to the idea of emulation as an actâa piece of software emulating the function of a piece of hardware to run a piece of software intended for that hardwareâbut that theyâre (over?)protective of what they assert as legally their intellectual property, that they have the right to dictate how that stuff is to be copied and commodified. I really donât see where the hypocrisy is.
Not that I want to defend Nintendo per se. Itâs a rich-as-hell company. Fuck it. I just canât follow this particular line of thought.

Historically they [Nintendo] were a bit quick to judge emulators as a hostile threat to IP. This timestamp relates their alleged change to policy on emulators which coincided with the release of their own emulation software (so chronologically not technically hypocrites?):

Iâm with you on this, I canât be bothered to see the nuance of the hypocrisy-as-written when itâs very clearly in the service of âdonât touch our IP, fuck youâ â no one is actually against emulators from a preservation standpoint and having to claim whataboutism is tedious
