You can already connect switch controllers to a PC and play any switch title, legally, on your PC right now.

I have legally purchased all my switch games but I make backups and play on PC sometimes just because it is a better experience.

This doesn't seem unambiguously legal - it seems like the backup part is the legally grey bit.

The legally grey bit is that there's no method to make a usable backup without circumventing the DRM.
