I remember seeing the argument that Nintendo has emulators ready and that means that they must absolutely use it for something else... but that's kinda false.
They had a GB/C emulator for N64 and they only used it once. They had a GBA emulator for GC but it's just used for GBA demos, they had a GB emulator for Wii but it's only used for Brawl and Kirby's Dream Collection...
They had N64 emulation ready for GC (to a varying amount of stability) and they only used it for Zelda games despite that it supported more games.
They also tried to make a GBA emulator for 3DS (probably because they wanted VC features) only to never use it and rely on GBA hardware mode on the system which is only used for people who bought the 3DS before the price drop.
Nintendo is absolutely used to make things, only to use them once or twice, or maybe even never.
