Bleem! won lawsuits against Sony despite being a paid emulator, so Nintendo doesn’t really have legal standing just based on whether or not the creators make money.
Those were lawsuits over different things.
Bleem was being sued for using screenshots in comparative advertising and the courts ruled that it was fair use.
The switch emulators were sued for using proprietary encryption keys in a product they sold. Those weren’t a thing with the PS1 and aren’t a product of reverse engineering.
Sony sued over the screenshots, but also over unfair competition. Nintendo’s legal theory isn’t the same as Sony’s, but regardless I don’t think it’s based on whether or not the emulator makes money.
Nintendo’s case literally based on whether or not the emulator generates profit. That’s why they haven’t been able to go after Dolphin.
