Actually, charging people for emulation isn't illegal. The main problem, that I can figure out, is that they specifically marketed / advertised that upcoming Switch games (TotK) runs better on Yuzu than Switch. Main issue is that they did it before TotK was released.

Disclaimer: Not a legal expert, just what I could figure out from reading different stuff / articles.

Exactly, which is why I said “charging people to play pirated games” (though I suppose it was really just one game, so no plural was needed.)
