If it’s anything like how the Wii was basically a GameCube it may not even be all that hard to rework existing switch emulators to work with switch 2 games. Given that it’s going to have full back compat I bet that’s why they went after switch emus so hard. They wanted to halt development as much as possible for as long as possible so it doesn’t eat away at their switch 2 sales.
Until it eventually does come to steam. Please don’t listen to these fuckers. They will say whatever they can for profit. It wouldn’t be the first time these people have lied about this exact thing only for the game to come to steam a year later.
