Nintendo's argument in the filing was that it effectively did, as the website instructed people on how to extract the keys, and that the software did real time decryption for which there was no legitimate source of keys.
That didn't get tested in court, but I suspect it would have succeeded (this is not legal advice).
So, the emulator did not contain the key but it made it easy to use one if you had one? Is that a suitable description?
How useful would the emulator without the key be? I guess you could still write and play (and share) your own software. Is that what people call "homebrew" in the Nintendo Switch context?
