Pirated, or downloaded a back up of a game they bought a physical copy of?

All the people I know who emulated it also bought it in this case, because emulation was objectively a better experience for the game.

I bought it and played in on the switch, myself, but if I ever did another playthrough I'd want to higher res of emulation.

That's technically legal right? Kinda like ripping a CD?

Ripping the game from your own system/cartridge is legal, downloading an identical copy from the internet is not.
