The emulator is more likely that the Switch 2 was supposed to be released this year and ended up getting pushed to next year. This means they have to support the Switch fully for another year and it’s a harder sell when it’s easy for customers to make a choice between:
A Switch and 3ish games
Or
A Steam Deck that can play all the Switch games for free
When these are both the same price. The fact that instructions were easy to find and follow didn’t help.
