      Their next move is simple,they watch the other emulators scamper away and then its smooth sailing for the switch 2. The common person has zero clue what its like when a juggernaut comes knocking at your door with process papers. They have zero clue of the enormous amount of money it takes to even attempt to defend themselves. It was idiotic to start with, to start a emulator for a system that was still in its current life cycle and on top of that they made money from it. Big No No’s

      in regards to what you said about older emulation: the clause protecting obsolete formats from the DMCA laws expired in 2010 so if an emulator needs a bios file or similar it must be provided by the end user not the emulator. unless that part is also reverse engineered of course.

    Let's hope that Ryujinx stays safe and Mikage and Panda3DS carry the torch that Citra left.
    Yuzu's decision to lock content behind a paywall was always a red flag to me. So hopefully that leaves Ryujinx clear.
    As for RPCS3, Sony has no solid argument against since as you stated, they literally have firmware wide open to be downloaded. Plus, they wouldn't benefit for going after PCSX2 and Duckstation either.
    Hopefully this serves as a cautionary tale for other emulators that rely on dumping keys.

      If Yuzu was using stollen keys why dose Yuzu require you to dump your own keys from your own switch?
      If Yuzu already had the keys there would be no need for anyone to dump them.
      And what do you mean by "they Used the stolen keys on Patreon"? what dose that even mean?

  • @Toastymuffin
    @Toastymuffin 3 місяці тому +93

    I was watching closely. Yuzu didn't have patches in EA for TOTK prior for release, only after release. They didn't even work on fixes until the day of the release and were actively banning discussion of the game prior to release within their discord and subreddit. There were third party mods by the pirate community that made the game playable before launch but the main fixes didn't come until after release. I think Nintendo's argument here is that they got a ton of EA subscriptions because they decided to put those patches behind a paywall which encourages people to play this on unofficial hardware, circumvent security measures and play the game "illegally".

This was basically when PC gaming was not about giving you the best possible versions of games so much as it was about giving you games that could run on your average work computer. As such, when you think about emulating at that time? There is really no concern about emulation ever cutting into profits because you're basically talking people buying the game and experiencing it at its full speed and functionality on console... or stubbornly playing a game at half-speed with stuttering audio and broken textures.
      Switch emulation is different. Because the tech is not even really based on anything custom by Nintendo and of course the system itself is not as powerful as others while PCs eclipse it? This means that you not only are quickly able to get games working, it's at speeds and resolutions BETTER than hardware and at frighteningly fast rates and with how Yuzu was doing it with the paywalls? It pretty much ensured that they'd have a target on their backs.

    I think the key phrase in the reponse from Yuzu dev team is "yuzu's support of Citra" to me it makes me think that Citra can live on as long as different devs step in to work on Citra and can seemingly keep the name but if Yuzu gets brought back somehow then the name would definitly have to be changed cause I would say Nintendo would be having a team to do google searches on yuzu after all this.

    Well this sucks... I'm pretty confident we'll have another Switch Emulation in a future. Just that is way too hot right now... But I think Sony won't get their hands on the PlayStation Emulators at all. Specially since the firmware is 100% legally free.

      @@SuperballsSupervidsOnYT I know what you mean. But I mean by them killing Yuzu is too much of a trend to create another Switch emulation. Which means, if we ended up making another Switch emulator to replace Yuzu while this "Nintendo killed Yuzu and Citra" trend is still trending, they'll just go after the next Switch emulating team right off the bat. That's why i said we might have to wait a year or 2 to make another Switch emulator. Like maybe after Nintendo drops the Nintendo Switch 2 then it'll be more safer for us to emulate the Switch again.

    When it is said that yuzu had totk fixes behind patreon, was that the official yuzu patreon? I don’t recall them providing any support prior to release. It always seemed that they were striving to keep yuzu available to enhance and preserve…and that was consistent with all the responses I ever saw in their discord. So making it work early seems like it would be counter to their efforts. Of course, I don’t have access to their private discussions, so there is likely more to what Nintendo knew.

    For 5 years I have refused to support Nintendo and I am so glad I did. While we all know about copyright and such I still feel the way they go about things is wrong. They are leeching off their customers by releasing old games and ones which have been bought by people multiple times.
    I am done with it and them.

    i'll be honest: since i discovered some features of yuzu were locked behind the patreon ( the totk optimization for example ) and the boxcat ( which was a server which you could get the online updates / news and etc for animal crossing / pokemon and other games WHICH IT COULD SEND DATA FROM THE EMULATOR TO THE OFFICIAL NINTENDO SERVERS ) i was 99% sure nintendo would discover this and sue them.
    and it happened, so it doesn't surprise me. of course we lost 2 emulators with one lawsuit ( which is bad ) , and i hope new emulators appear soon. =/
