      They’re not bogus. The emulator that shut down were selling a product using a proprietary encryption key owned by Nintendo.

      That’s why Dolphin still exists.

        I disagree. Sure, companies have a moral right to recoup their R&D costs on a console, but I fully reject the Divine Right of Shareholders. As long as the emulators aren’t sold for profit and no one is hurt, a multibillion dollar company like Nintendo has zero moral ground to tell us that we cannot emulate consoles that we have bought to play games that we also bought.
