Your comment is similar to saying that evolution has not been tested. If you watch the video you will see how many experiments confirm the simulation hypothesis. It appears to have significant explanatory power and alternative theories, particularly materialism, have been falsified by those same experiments.
There's a difference between a hypothesis and a theory.
Evolution is a tested and (mostly) confirmed theory.
Simulation hypothesis is well... A hypothesis.
You can look up the difference because I'm to tired to explain it today.
