Yuzu agrees to pay Nintendo $2.4 million and will entirely shut down

Reminder that poor Gary Bowser was jailed for a year and owes 30% of his income to Nintendo for the rest of his life. He uses a wheelchair and has two kids.

It would be morally wrong to pirate all future Nintendo titles and pay the cover price to Gary's gofundme. Please don't do that.

fuck Nintendo, I'll never support them or buy anything related to them ever again.

The publicity inspired me to install it, so great job Nintendo.

It is always morally correct to pirate nintendo products.

Where does a FOSS project find $2.4M? They weren't selling anything were they? They can't really have that big of a war chest can they?

As of right now, both Citra and Yuzu are available via Flathub!!! Get them now if you don't have it!!!

Holy shit this thing smells so bad. The announcement reads like "Nintendo's legal team wrote this in exchange for 1 mill smaller settlement"

Emulator devs should rly do their best to be anonymous

Fuck Nintendo. All my homies hate Nintendo.

Reminder that paying Nintendo money is morally wrong and should be avoided when possible. Buy the consoles, sure, but pirate if you have to play the games.

I agree to never give Nintendo my money again, I hope they also shut down someday.

That escalated quickly.

They're shutting down the website too :( I really liked the in depth update logs. Yuzu (the website, emulator, android app) felt so extraordinarily polished for an emulator too. Shame Nintendo

Should've done a GoFundMe or something to fight Nintendo, I would've funded that...

What happened to the lawsuit that said that emulation is legal?

They must know they fucked up somewhere and decided to go this route rather than get exposed for potential shenanigans. From reading comments in other communities I was surprised to see a lot of people expected this outcome, although nobody was particularly specific about why (maybe someone here can give some insight.) For the record I've been on team "Fuck Nintendo" after the Gamecube, but I'd take the fact that other emulators haven't been targeted as possible hint that Nintendo got wind of something wacky going on. Who knows, maybe they're next?

Fuck it up to heaven's way. Dietendo

I'm planning to just Google my way out of this, but what's the cleanest way to block the repo I've been using in yay from updates without uninstalling the version I've got running already?

Before I could afford a PC good enough to run TotK :(

Does anyone have a copy of the compiling guide? it just points me to a 404 page.

Already the installer is gone. I can't find it anywhere.
