Your reminder that Nintendo 64 games on the Nintendo Switch are using an open source emulator that Nintendo has not contributed to or endorsed in anyway, and is believed to be using game ROMs collected by preservationists.

I don't remember which game, but there was one that it came out that they straight up lost the files for and had to download from a ROM site to put on the virtual console thing
