Oh no, poor Nintendo, how could they possibly afford a custom IC fab? They only have more money than God.
The way I see it, they have two choices. Make the investment to supply their museum with original hardware, or be ok with emulation. They're trying to have their cake and eat it too, and that's shitty.
That would just be wasteful, and wouldn't really be the same thing? Analogue already makes N64 FPGAs make things that are almost N64s, and Nintendo doesn't seem to care.
Your forgetting that Nintendo emulates there own games all the time, literally since the GameCube.
There argument has never been about what they can do, it's about what you can do. Now they are wrong under US law, but it's not like it's hard to go find ROMs of these games, they aren't even on torrents or shady websites, you can download them directly.
