I mean, that's basically what all of these are. However the official online titles sometimes have little fixes that aren't present in regular emulations.
Not necessarily; there are a few SNES games in the Switch Online library that weren't localised and hence remain untranslated from Japanese, namely Super Puyo Puyo 2, Panel de Pon, Mario's Super Picross, and Kirby's Star Stacker. Though all of those games are puzzle games, which don't necessarily need language to be enjoyed, whereas an RPG like Mother 3 would likely be much less enjoyable without understanding the dialogue, battle UI and so on.
Can't you just change zone on your Nintendo account and download the Japan app like you could do back in the day? Sure, the game is till in Japanese but you get the game :p

You can change your location in the settings and get Japanese games.

Fingers crossed someone will hack the NSP for it and translate it. Bit of a long shot, though.

Why not just play on an emulator at that point?

just means it'll probably come to the US soon. Holy crap, finally, this is nuts.

Not true. It would require Nintendo to make an English translation. The one we have isn't an official translation.

I dont personally, no. Emulation is a trivial task to accomplish on every device, really.

Aww man, I thought it was a new game for a minute there.
