My guess is they're realizing what Nintendo tried to do is futile with how advanced AI coding is getting.

To be fair, in Nintendo's case, shutting down emulators still fragments development as emu devs are more spread out. Some will quit or split teams.
Like, Eden is currently the most activly developed Switch 1 Emulator but a lot of its development stalled for a while. In contrast to say, the RPCS3 team or Dolphin Team who were able to cook non-stop. Switch 1 Emulation would have been farther along if Nintendo hadn't nuked a lot of the more popular ones.
