Good games are good games regardless of when they’re made

And in one sentence you've completely encapsulated the reason why Nintendo is terrified of emulators.

And they still remake the same handful of games every couple years. We JUST got a new Mario Party that looks identical to the previous two. The only different ones are probably Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

I don't think I'll ever understand Nintendo fanboys that replay essentially the same shit with a slightly different skin on it.

Nostalgia is a strong force. Nintendo is very good at capitalizing on it.
