Ryujinx is toast just like Yuzu. Whatever happened in their private conversation, those who were privy to details have given enough confirmation to people they trusted not to leak it, that it's the same kind of "agreement" as the Yuzu "settlement", AKA a contractual guilty plea. Plenty of people claimed it wouldn't be an issue because, ya know, it's not like Yuzu where they went to court and pussied out, it's MIT licensed so anyone can just continue development -- Yeah no. Shortly after people started spreading the news about the deal over DMs, a bunch of ryujinx forks like newjinx panicked and 404'd because they would have been sued. Yuzu screwed the pooch for all of us, and Nintendo is on a rampage. This is going to keep going until someone Nintendo sues wins against them.
Another great thing about emulators is being able to experience online games for games/consoles that no longer get supported. And all done by people who are just passionate about the games they love
Hate to say it, But you make an emuator that is of current gen. Don't be surprised if you get sued or shut down.... Like it's not even a hard concept, you are literally making Piracy of New products available. Not even the "Preservation of games" defense apply here. like, just wait a Gen till Nintendo stops carrying and Join the Project64 and Dolphin emulator Club of using an emulator that probably won't ever be shut down cause Nintendo couldn't care less.
@@ast8177 doesn't matter if it's current gen, there are some games that aren't even available anymore, like 3D All Stars and (i think it's called?) The Lost Child that just aren't available anymore, so the only way to play them IS emulation.
@@venituber true, I'm a big fan of Games preservation. So how many people using emulators care about that and how many just use it to play free videogames? Be honest here, what's your guess? Say what you want. Emulation probably costs Nintendo Millions of dollars. And there is no obligation from Nintendo to sell a game to you any more than there would be obligation for Toyota to continue selling outdated cars to you indefinitely. But if you break into a warehouse and grab a car for free... in any other situation, grabbing someone else's product for free would immediately be stealing. Are we pretending it's not stealing? Do you really think emulators are used by the average person for "game preservation"? I get the sentiment, I love my mGBA emulator. But Nintendo is actively selling the switch. Right now. And the miniscule% of games that you can't buy at home are in no way a reasonable reason for Nintendo to not fight switch emulators. Again, I love preserving games, and the fast forward feature is great for FE6, but if you can't wait till they don't sell the console, there is no moral ground to stand on.
sell of knifes for kitchen *have to* be prohibited because "you are literally making stabbing of humans available"??? (knifes can be used to stab a human)
