console manufacturers might start slapping DRM into their consoles

You been living under a rock bud? That's literally the idea of a game console, it's ultimately what separates console gaming from PC gaming.

now sure, this is a piracy sub, but i'm not sure if the yuzu devs are keen into piracy...

They literally sabotage their emulator so it can't play certain games in case of leaks, they're well past that point.

i also wonder if there's any way to fight back. people who dump their legal copies are being screwed as well.

Could develop the emulators from a country that doesn't respect intellectual property rights, it works well enough for Empress, obviously it would absolutely not work out for her if she tried to do what she does in America.
