Emulators are primarily used to play games that are no longer available on hardware that no longer exists.

That is preservation, not piracy.

Yes, and in the case of older games it is incredibly difficult for a company to prove any kind of damages against an individual since they no longer make the games available for sale.

That doesn't apply for current generation consoles and games.
