It’s funny, before this, I was just going to buy a legit copy and play it on my Deck (I have a Switch, but prefer the Deck)
Now, fuck those guys. If I play at all, it’ll be on a pirated copy.
Deck is superior to Switch! And obligatory F—- Nintendo, and their 1990’s mindset with games and hardware. I’m convinced they’ll have to financially fail to start caring. Even a 30% reduction in their sales and player counts should quickly seize their attention.
At this point 2024 is looking like the Year Of Nintendo’s Failures starting off with Palworld. They certainly deserve to fail!
With all that free money, it looks like Nintendo will be just fine if I never purchase another one of their games. Hell, I may even offer to hack some of my friends’ systems just to spite Nintendo.
I’m gonna rcm my switch now and copy my animal crossing island to my PC to be emulated. Shoulda done that a long time ago to have a backup that I actually own instead of having to pay Nintendo to keep my save data backed up. I see no reason to play any more Nintendo games on my switch, much less purchase any more when I have my steam deck.
Absolute chad. Keep fighting the good fight.
So this defensive strategy was planned from the beginning. The L in LLC stands for limited. It means Nintendo won’t get any money. Tropic Haze LLC declares bankruptcy and tells Nintendo “our assets are two rolls of toilet paper and this empty can of coke, GL with getting your millions”. Certainly cheaper than fighting a top lawyer team with unlimited funding
That was fast.
They settled.
And no one ever pirated a Nintendo game ever again.
In other news:
- Switch sales up 2000%!
- Nintendo stock reaches all-time high!
- Half-Life 3 released!
Saw this coming and made sure to update one last time. Ill probably just switch to Ryujinx at some point.
RIP Yuzu

Its dead. Another project based on it source code might arise but it won’t be the same team and will take a while before it would be smart to trust the new project.
My guess is the most recent version of Yuzu, as a stand alone, will probably work for a long time anyway. So i guess there is that…

True just look at how long project64 v1.6 has been around

Fuck Nintendo. They’re going on my shitlist forever. They were already on my shitlist. Now they’re just on the same level as HP which is the lowest level.
Yeah hard to say. I wouldn’t be surprised if Ryujinx gets hit next. It looks like the source code for Yuzu is, at the very least, saved on the wayback machine, so my guess is a fork will eventually pop up.
It seems like a better strategy would be to host this on the dark net. When working on projects like this, they need to start putting effort into making it so that it’s almost impossible to link them to real life people. People sell drugs on there all the time and seem to get away with it. Maybe we need to adapt.
We need an “Illegal software github” kind of like pirate sites but for source code that governments and corporations don’t want people to have.
Shitty thing is, emulators and emulation themself aren’t ilegall.
What nintendo attacked here is the fact yuzu was used to play copies of games for their still used and developed for system, doesn’t matter whether it was pirated or not to them, all they care about is the fact that it was a current gen system emulator and they didn’t like that fact because they think it hurts their sales.
Big companies are probably better at finding people than law enforcement is
Lol no
See what I mean:
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
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.
Fuck Nintendo. Find better games for your kids to play. Buy a Sega genesis with an everdrive or set up a raspberry pi or something. Tux kart is better than Mario cart these days anyway.

As of right now Citra and Yuzu are both available via Flathub!! If you want them there’s still time!!!
Anyone know where to get the most recent linux build as a .deb? I wanna have an installer in case I have to wipe my os or something like that.
I heard the flat pack is still up
Yeah, but is there a way to download flatpacks for an Install at another time?
I wanna be able to install it at a later point in time (for example when I reinstall my system)
Yep, snap too
Are there any viable Yuzu or Citra forks?
A guy on the Lemmy.world post posted this: https://github.com/TxzK/yuzu
More important than maintaining the source code though is forming a new group to manage the continued development of Yuzu and Citra. Hopefully they don’t fracture into ten groups all making parallel improvements.
@mr_MADAFAKA between this and sending Gary Bowser to jail and taking money from him while in prison … i will NEVER buy another nintendo product. I should have come to this conclusion LONG ago … but i guess better late than never.
#fucknintendoI 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.
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
