I guess this is damage control, since they are afraid of setting a precedent of potentially killing off legal emulation in the US for good.
There's no chance, an emulator dev team can take it up against Nintendo's lawyers.
Don't blame Nintendo, blame capitalism.
True, if they went to court and lost, every emulator project would likely be sued. But settling out of court also sets a precedent, or rather perpetuates the current status quo of crushing any vaguely gray area fan project with the threat of legal action. The shutdown of Yuzu will embolden Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony to be more aggressive about killing off these projects. Until someone does take one of these three to trial and wins, things are going to continue getting worse for game preservation.
Capitalism taking its' course until we stop it, I'm afraid.
Both. Blame both.
Blame Canada, blame Canada!! Oh wait....
Fuck Nintendo. Bunch of money hungry cunts. I hope their sales plummet. Emulation isn't illegal but here fucking are being forced to buy their horrendously shitty console to play a game. Glad I bought mine secondhand and already sold it. You once had honour. Now you can commit seppuku
This is just encouragement for ryjunix to prep for new console (which is probably going to be almost the exact same)
It's a dark day. I also miss the discord already.
nintendrones are the most brainwashed corporate bootlickers I've ever encountered
There’s a steam deck discord that was muting people and banning some people for even saying the word “emulation”
The mods were quite scared and authoritative and acting powerless at the same time.
"Say sorry" is crazy lmao
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
Same, and they fucked up the Citra Emulation too, and it's the only 3DS Emulator. Nintendo may makes great games, but they are better in a museum than fucking up the industry like that.
Sony will follow these steps.
