So the switch itself emulates older consoles... I could have swore I remember reading something like the anniversary bundle that they put out for a limited edition had a emulator that someone made.

This is what we get because Atari fucked up with E.T.

It's so nice to see all the Nintendo haters. I wonder if they've taken down any of my videos. I've gotten no notifications.

I have a hard time defending the YouTubers on this one. I mean, Nintendo has been pretty good about allowing older games to be played on its modern consoles. See VGC, the NES/SNES/N64 pass, and the multiple re-releases put out for the Switch. At some point just pony up the money or play the older games on a physical older console.

Where the hell am I supposed to get a N64?
