It's not convoluted at all. It's extremely simple: if you want to (edit: legally) play first party Nintendo titles (or other exclusives), you MUST buy a switch. If you don't care about Nintendo exclusives, there's absolutely no reason to own a switch. That has been true of every, single Nintendo console ever released... except for the Wii. People bought a Wii so they could play a motion control game with Grandma once or twice, and then just let the console sit and collect dust.

Nintendo striking down emulators illegally?
How does that have anything to do with you pirating developers' hard work?
That only matters if you would have paid for it otherwise.
Hahaha holy shit this is so true.
Most people don't want to dedicate brain cells for that
I'd give up everything just to do this...
Yuzu would like to have a word
Well. NES/SNES/N64/GameCube/DS/GBA all had bangers. The well started to dry up around the wii.
