The official Nintendo Museum appears to be emulating SNES games on a Windows PC, which is slightly embarrassing (www.pcgamer.com)

You arent wrong and they have every right to use emulation themselves as the legal owners of their products.

The hypocrisy, as i see it, is that they have in the past painted emulation as bad. Fullstop. So for them to have had that opinion, then use it themselves is where they come into being called out for it. Hence the rules for thee but not for me phrase.

And its not a perfect fit which is why i said "more of a" if that helps explain how i intended to mean it

The inconsitency is in their past words vs actions especially where going after emulators is concerned.

Thats all i was getting at hope that helps
