Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

It was bewildering to me in the moment that when TOTK was leaked that they didn't restrict themselves from working on the emu to handle TOTK. It was some nod and wink "breath of the wild" improvements coming in all of a sudden.

Like... for real? If I were the project lead I would've banned discussion and development about it until after launch. And part of the legal filing from Nintendo is that Yuzu's own telemetry shows that Yuzu devs must be aware of piracy because they can see games being played on the emulator pre-launch. Make of that what you will.

In other news, I got a DMCA email from Xfinity today. Might or might not be able a Nintendo switch game. 🤪

Time to boycott Nintendo Online and Nintendo in general for doing so many Ls as of late

I never really wanted to pay any Switch games in general, but any one got a good source for roms?

Interesting that they're not suing Ryujinx. I wonder why.

It needs to work both ways then. Nintendo needs to pay for all the free advertisement that emulators provide.

Anytime I mess with an emulator and play an old game it triggers nostalgia. I then purchase new software and hardware from the company it belongs to.

This is some shady shit that Nintendo is pulling.

If murder were legally, I know a place less than a day away from my current locations that I'd love to visit.

Do existence of a full fledged Switch emulator implies that it could have been build with $40000/month (from yuzu paetron page) and r&d or whatever cost it took was artifically inflated🤨

Are people finding games playable? I tried Zelda and it was unplayable due to lag.

The comments section here is pretty much an echo chamber of people defending Yuzu. I'm a game dev and I think this case is more ambiguous. Emulators like Yuzu have the potential to make Switch piracy go mainstream. You don't need to hack anything, you just follow a tutorial and google "yuzu keys", suddenly you can play all Switch games for free. And people don't need to be tech-savvy to do that. Nintendo would be stupid if they would just ignore this. It doesn't help that the Tegra X1 is old, almost identical with other Nvidia chipsets and therefore easy to emulate on a PC.
