Is the implication that they won’t be able to write an in-house emulator? So did they wait for someone to port an SNES emulator to Switch before they can put those old games on their online service?

the “implication?” they’ve literally already sold consoles that have downloaded roms on them.

Are they? They aren’t using Canoe and their own files?

files they’ve downloaded off the internet. its much easier for them and they only need to do a quick frontend to make it look official.
