The official Nintendo Museum appears to be emulating SNES games on a Windows PC, which is slightly embarrassing (www.pcgamer.com)

I think, like that post mentions as well, that prices were the biggest issue. The points system being a garbage system in the first place, easily a system I would instantly be turned off from, I absolutely hate buying currencies to buy something, instead of just outright seeing the actual prices in the store. But if you'd want to buy a small collection for a couple of decades old games it would add up quickly.

The problem with Nintendo's always been the insane prices. I'm especially hesitant to buy anything digital or any services from Nintendo. Knowing they could decide to pull the plug any time again.
