Nintendo has their own emulators for running these games on newer consoles.

If they would do that it would be very useful in court.

It’s not illegal for Nintendo to run retroarch.

Its not illegal for anyone else either, but them running such software for profit might be a licensing issue depending on the exact version they use.
