I don’t like Nintendo’s attack on emulation any more than you do, but video capture cards have existed for a long time. You don’t need an emulator to record footage of console play
It's more about accessibility. It's not like they make the games anymore and the emulators they have on the Switch are lackluster. You could buy shit on eBay but if it's a super niche game it'd probably cost a lot of money. Money that doesn't go back to Nintendo. It's not like they're going to lose money for someone playing a super rare game on an emulator.
