Did a little digging out of curiosity. So I thought Switch 2 emulation may be a thing within about 2 to 3 years of Switch 2's launch. Turns out, some trying to figure it out, are saying it might take a decade. Mostly because of a few key reasons. 1. Nintendo upped the security majorly this time around, which isn't shocking after what happened with Switch 1. 2. The architecture is more modern and secure in general, with more power technically than a PS4 Pro, which also does not have an active emulator yet. It will be much harder to even run a Switch 2 emulator. 3. If you thought Switch 1 games were the way in, Nintendo had to create a translation layer for backwards compatibility, which has protected it from Switch 1 exploits. While a decade is merely an estimation, it is notable that a PS4 Pro, nor a PS5 (let alone Pro), nor a Series X/S emulator actually exists that works. Security around modern devices has gotten very good. If you're refusing to buy a Switch 2 and hoping to emulate all the exclusives, good luck. I might be over the age of 50 before anything viable happens.
