Very much a thing within the reach of the average consumer with something like the MigSwitch Dumper. You get the game you paid for and none of the nasty bits (other than some emulation pain here and there).
Owning alone is not enough. You need to dump it yourself. Downloading others Roms, even if you own the game, is illegal. Because you are only allowed to play what you dumped yourself, not the backup copy of a different individual cartridge.
Yeah but you can’t legally play Mario on it
Who gives a fuck whether it’s legal?
Please do not swear at me
Actually, you can download and play roms legal in switzerland.
I don’t legally play Mario on my switch either

Actually you can, as long as you own the game and are playing a backup of it.

You can if you own the Mario game…
