Controller Pak emulation seems functional in N64 Switch Online so I don't get it, it just needs file management I believe... but when I looked even further I found out something else about it.
They can literally make a combination of Controller Pak and Rumble Pak with some hacks, I don't see any addressing that actually conflicts with each other.
The N64 Transfer Pak emulation is just turn the power on and off. That's it.
But since they do have the basic Controller Pak and Rumble Pak read/write logic, this should be mostly easy to implement...
Now emulating Controller Pak is one thing, but I can guess reasons why it's not used: It's a save per controller, and therefore, user. How would it be possible to manage saves in this manner?
Should we discard saves for Player 2 and up in local?

Should they manage only one Controller Pak per user and therefore maybe use them for netplay for each user?
These can be tough questions to bother but honestly they should just discard player 2 and up, and use the unique user Controller Pak for each player on netplay?
