Having user supply some copyrighted software that they should own (like BIOS or decryption keys) is entirely different from an emulator or a homebrew project taking and integrating copyrighted code. They’re lucky Nintendo didn’t sue them into oblivion like that modchip guy because they really could.

I don't think any other emulators or console mods do this either tho.
