I want to know the answer to the following question:
What was Nintendo's first approved emulator?
All the background I'm provided with is that "While individual games have been included with emulators on some GameCube discs, Nintendo's Virtual Console service for the Wii marks the introduction of officially sanctioned general SNES emulation, though SNES9x GX, a port of SNES9x, has been made for the Wii.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
