The official Nintendo Museum appears to be emulating SNES games on a Windows PC, which is slightly embarrassing(www.pcgamer.com)

It’s a weird assumption. Like I said, emulation for backward compatibility is common. Do they always just wait for some random strangers to implement an emulator for them?

Nintendo has some serious emulation experts for building products, but this setup rigged by some museum staff could be anything.

Waiting? There is zero chance availability is an issue. There are many ready to go snes emulators for windows out there.

They have literally had their own emulators for so long. At least since the SNES Classic released. It is called Canoe
