I did not know this, I will now go see if there is anything worth playing.

Good advertising! I just hope the dev gets out of this without consequences and the project lives on.

Time to sell my switch, i only have it because of yuzu.

Considering that the keys are not unique per console, it's kind of weird keeping the Switch around just for Yuzu. I mean you can get key dumps online and those work the same since they're all identical.

Only real reason to do it is because Yuzu devs said so, and that's not a great reason because they don't have any authority to say so, nor any way of knowing if people are actually doing that.

Yuzu struggled running zelda on my pc, zo i bought a switch to play zelda again.

I'd think a ryzen 7, 64gb ram and 3070 shouldn't have a problem with a switch game but i might be wrong because i don't know the specs of the switch.

Just found out about yuzu today, wasn't aware you could get the key dumps online. How can I find sources for those?

Yeah? Such a dick about it, Nintendo. Your platform is not special and people will run software however they please.

Emulation is legal. Emulation will remain legal. If you can't deal with it except through courtroom bullying, may devs should look into SLAPP defenses.

Devs have to give up, companies have limitless funding for these things while people don’t

They have anti-piracy measures in the emulator though and it’s not like it’s any more difficult to play pirated games on the Switch. So this is sad to see
