With all that free money, it looks like Nintendo will be just fine if I never purchase another one of their games. Hell, I may even offer to hack some of my friends’ systems just to spite Nintendo.
I’m gonna rcm my switch now and copy my animal crossing island to my PC to be emulated. Shoulda done that a long time ago to have a backup that I actually own instead of having to pay Nintendo to keep my save data backed up. I see no reason to play any more Nintendo games on my switch, much less purchase any more when I have my steam deck.
And no one ever pirated a Nintendo game ever again.
In other news:
- Switch sales up 2000%!
- Nintendo stock reaches all-time high!
- Half-Life 3 released!
The poor Nintendo executives can finally afford to go to space, like they deserve!
And just like that, Nintendo have guaranteed to never get a dime of my money again 🏴☠️
What a greedy corpo. I’ll be waiting on the MVG video covering all the legal details whenever that drops
MVG dropped a video today giving his thoughts on it
Saw this coming and made sure to update one last time. Ill probably just switch to Ryujinx at some point.
RIP Yuzu
It isn’t dead yet. The source code was downloaded by a bunch of people when the lawsuit was announced, so there’s already forks being uploaded to other accounts.
Its dead. Another project based on it source code might arise but it won’t be the same team and will take a while before it would be smart to trust the new project.
My guess is the most recent version of Yuzu, as a stand alone, will probably work for a long time anyway. So i guess there is that…
That’s what I mean. They say you aren’t truly dead until the last person forgets your name. Yuzu might not have the same team going forward, but the source code is there, and somebody will continue the project. We won’t forget where it came from, and so Yuzu will live on.
Source has been posted on Internet Archive (along with the latest builds for a bunch of platforms). Something will likely rise from the ashes of YuZu, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it takes a few years. Nintendo is probably gonna be extra litigious this year (even more than usual), due to them likely failing to have the Switch’s successor ready this year, and not really having a full slate of games ready, so with Switch sales projected to be down, best to lay low on anything that might get Nintendo’s attention for a while.
As of right now Citra and Yuzu are both available via Flathub!! If you want them there’s still time!!!
Lol install statistics shot up when initial news broke last week.
Installs are nothing. Fork it. Improve it. Even better if original devs would still contribute.
Honestly someone should just copy all of the files onto 10, 000 cheap small flash drives and just hand them out everywhere.
this case does not set any legal precedent, but it’s still a shame they settled.
Are there any viable Yuzu or Citra forks?
Anybody has the last citra build? The one I have is almost a year old.
It’s a dark day. I also miss the discord already.
Only a matter of time. Idk how they thought Nintendo wouldn’t come after them. That’s Nintendos whole mo
Cowards. Both Nintendo and the devs for not even bothering with fighting back.
Ahh look at that, a person on the internet having a big mouth without actually having knowledge into the matter. Nothing new.
They are not cowards at all.
Never take on a corporate company that has billions to spend for the suing. They took the smartest and best route for themselves and that’s what matters - what’s best for them.
If you want someone to “fight” against Nintendo, be the change! Do it yourself.

And also probably live in Russia (or another CIS state) you know, like most of the famous crackers who still do this and continue to get away with it. Otherwise they (Nintendo or some other western Corpo) will just do the same thing all over again.
Or you could just have a team there, but it didn’t work so well for Gary Bowser, so if you go that route consider the first option.
Sony shouldn’t sue anyone emulating PS4/5 stuff. AFAIK, PC is the king of modding.
Yeah maybe not, it’s mostly just Nintendo, I wouldn’t put it behind Microsoft to do something similar, though they haven’t tried anything yet, and also don’t really have any console exclusives anymore (that they care about, most of them are forgotten on Xbox 360).
