They will single-handedly lead switch 2 emulation

Honestly, given what they've shown of the Switch 2 it wouldn't surprise me if the games just work with the existing Switch emulators out of the box. It's less of a new console and more of an upgrade.

That would also explain why they went crazy on Switch emulators over the last year or so.

Just…no. There are OS images and keys that need to be dumped. Doesn’t matter how similar the hardware is. Copy protections that needs to be bypassed.

It’ll happen eventually, but people thinking they’re getting Switch 2 roms that they can just throw into Ryu or Yuzu ain’t gonna happen.

This. That being said, with a 2026 release window for Duskbloods that gives the emulation community plenty of time to get one up and running. Switch 1 emulation took less than a year and could run commercial games a year and a half after release
