Why did Nintendo Switch emulator Ryujinx shut down and what are the alternatives?
The shutdown comes as Nintendo is going on the warpath against those who stand accused of pirating or stealing its intellectual property
You're viewing a single thread.
The alternative to Ryujinx... Is Ryujinx itself. And soon something else. It has been forked, archived and mirrored. Someone will pick up the project, even if just out of spite against Nintendo.
I have gotten so sick of Nintendo's shit that I have started cloning all of the emulator repos that I use. Thankfully I had pulled latest less than an hour before the repo was pulled. Others have beaten me to the punch for forking and re-hosting, but you can include me in the archive army.
To add to this point, there are already 2 forks of yuzu floating out there iirc since Nintendo "removed" it.
Like op says, this changes nothing.
Sure any meaningful work done on those forks?
I'm not, i just know you can still get 'em right now if you're in the market for an emu. I haven't followed the story closely. Do you know something?
Body picked up the last emulator they got forked. Sure it’s forked doesn’t mean anyone we’ll work on it.
