    If I obtain all the original schematics and software and make 1 Nintendo internals for commercial purposes wothout their permission it would be illegal.

    If they do it, it costs them the price of a couple of family dinners at most.

    This museum IS NINTENDO. They are the only people allowed to do this job correctly.

      This is all just speculation. I have no idea how much it would cost for them to build new systems for every playable game in the museum.

      Entirely aside from the could argument, I don’t really understand why they would do it.

        Its probably against the Emulator’s License unless they built their own from scratch, and a Windows PC is actually pretty overkill.

          I suspect they have their own emulators.

          I mean they have old games available for new platforms and have had that for multiple generations. One of the things you get with a Nintendo online subscription is a switch catalog full of a bunch of SNES and NES games for play on the switch.
