But it isn’t a 1-to-1 simulation of the real hardware. Unless they have the original designs for the chips used in the N64, they’re still implementing something with likely very different internals on an FPGA.
You can get the same accuracy in a software emulator. If they want to claim it’s better because it’s more performant, or because it can use original cartridges, or it can produce better analog video output, that’s fine. But that’s not what they’re saying— they’re saying it isn’t emulation at all.
