I recently saw an article about how people are racing to perfect Tears of the Kingdom emulator.
I know Breath of the Wild has been emulated for awhile and there’s entire consoles worth of games being emulated. How and why do companies allow this?
Is it because they don’t expect to make any more money on a Dreamcast or GameCube game from 20 years ago so they just allow it?
What about when they remaster the game?

A lot of the older ones fall into a weird legal gray space known as abandonware. You can’t get the game anymore or the system to play it.
And although they would probably win a copyright suit, it would cost more money than its worth.
As far as newer games go, they may file lawsuits but often those are going to be cease and desist because it’s hard to figure out who to blame.
