I dont have any nitendo emulations but i guess this tells me i should collect some and save em on a harddrive just in case i ever need it.

Software preservation is a nobel act after all.

I immediately sought out working backups of both Yuzu and Ryujinx. The "bright side" of this situation is that it pissed me off enough to go acquire both the new Zelda game that potentially caused this whole situation by being leaked early, and the game that was at the absolute top of my to-play list: Unicorn Overlord. So far it is looking like a fantastic game.

For anyone curious, Echoes is definitely playable on steam deck

Is the new one better than Tears of the Kingdom?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

I like it more, but I'm a fan of the more classic Zeldas. It's good, but it's marred by the same technical issues that plagued the LA remake, and the lack of some basic QoL features like a Quick Select or Favorites wheel is bringing it from 'great' to 'good.'

Looks like the github is still up if you're willing to build yourself

Inventing dynamite is also a Nobel act.
