It's not "retro gaming" but that doesn't make emulating switch games a bad thing. I dump and emulate my own switch games off my own switch because they tend to perform better via emulator on a PC. It's really unfortunate to see Nintendo shut down what ultimately is the best way for us to preserve switch games long-term.
I wasn't saying emulating is a bad thing. I was saying THIS community may not be the right place hor THIS particular piece of news.
Now if they shut down an SNES emulator, then I'd see why it's here.
Also, it just occured to me that Wii might be considered retro.......god I feel old.
The Wii U is considered Retro
STOP MAKING MIDDLE AGED MEN FEEL ELDERLY SIR!!!!
..........oh god. I guess I am on the younger end of middle aged.
sigh Guess I'll buy a walker or something.....
It's not by almost any definition
I think the point was this community is for retro games. I do see why it's relevant.
