The percentage of their customer base that regularly uses emulation is so insignificant you should be happy they offer it at all: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31093436

You're looking at nintendo customers and not old game players...

What percentage of eg Super Mario bros players, play the game on original hardware and how many emulate it? Or legend of zelda, link to the past? Wario land?

If you want to play these old games, emulation is currently the best and cheapest option for most people.
