Hell yeah, fuck Nintendo, don't let them take away your right to emulate the games you paid for (hell, I don't mind if you emulate games you didn't pay for, Nintendo is a massive scumbag company, it's totally fine to pirate their stuff)
Ultimately the theft of the ruling class from the average artist and person in general is so staggeringly big that who gives honestly gives a shit anymore? Support game devs you like when you can by buying their games from stores that pay well to the developers and artists.... but f&$@ big game companies, they dont need your money, they aren't going to give a meaningful amount of it to the artists and or programmers doing the actual labor anyways so shrugs.
When Nintendo comes after people for emulating (especially old) games they aren't protecting anything other than the ownership class who wants to continue to charge rent for absolutely every aspect of our lives whether they rightfully or ethically own the things they are charging rent for or not.
