So, the ROM leaking early has...what to do with emulators?

Outlets reporting on how Metroid Dread was running on emulators pre-release and describing how to pirate it makes Nintendo pursue actions to prevent that shit. They can't prevent their games leaking, so they attack the emulators.

Is this so much harder to believe than Nintendo having a personal grudge?
