Welp. I guess it's time to pirate double that in Nintendo IP.

I'm just sorry for them. 2.4M dollars? How will they ever pay this? Do you think they will actually have to pay it fully?

So, are Yuzu developers actually have $2.4M lying around, or will they pay for it in installment like Gary Bowser?

That was fast.
Glad I haven't bought anything Nintendo since the Wii.
They could disappear for all I care.

I got all the latest builds of Yuzu, which will I will soon upload to Mega, but it didn't occur to me to download the tools.
The GitHub repo (source code) for Yuzu now returns 404. It used to be here: https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu

Nintendo,
reinventing themselves as a law-suite company
which also publishes games on the side..
I'm not sure how it'll work since I'm sure no one wants to be sued over a commit, but you pretty obviously can't kill an open source project so easily.
Nintendo would need to prove that you had and ran the tools locally which is damn near impossible to do. I could create a commit without even opening the solution or compiling it.
It would also put Nintendo up shit creek by turning the entire FOSS community against them.
They kinda already did with this lawsuit. With this, no emulator is safe.

Damn, I modded my Switch JUST in time! Thanks for giving me the motivation, Nintendo!
Wait Yuzu were behind all the other tools?? Surely that was other people?
Pretty sure they're all by other people. Maybe they were hosting copies on their own server or something? Possibly they were just using them for Yuzu development.
I did not.... 😭
I imagine you'll still be able to do so for a while, if not forever. But probably worth doing it sooner rather than later if you're interested, just in case! Modding it has nothing to do with Yuzu, so I'm not sure why these other programs are involved.

The list of reasons why I refuse to buy Nintendo products is getting pretty hefty at this point.

I'm sure something else will eventually come along. The only way to stop emulators from existing is to not have a system at all. I.e., if Nintendo were to stop making video game hardware, then there would be no new emulators except for ones developed for previous/existing hardware.
Ryujinx still exists...though probably not for long.
That's wild. But I guess I'm not surprised since the emulator was really good and the system is still out there selling
Is yuzu really going to "shut down"? I have it installed on my computer at least. And it's foss, no? So anyone can clone the repo.
Damn, the repo is already gone.
It's gone from the Play Store as well. Glad I managed to grab a copy of the early access version few days ago even though my phone isn't fast enough to run it full speed. I guess the money I paid for the early access version went to Nintendo.

Here's my fork in case you want it: https://github.com/TxzK/yuzu. I'm sure some other activity maintained forks will pop up eventually.
Hello, it's me Nintendo please pay me 2.4M bucks in damages from sharing those links, you vicious criminal 😭
Saving this for when I get home. Ty!
Be careful, now Nintendo is out for blood. I would get it off GitHub at the very least.
Take a look here for some potential alternatives: https://lemmy.world/post/12529718

Doesn’t matter if it’s gone, as long as it is available elsewhere, which of course it is.
A fork will most certainly pop up. I’m curious what this means for ryujinx development going forward.
