A single DMCA anti-circumvention notice, sent by Nintendo on the one-year anniversary of its 2024 lawsuit against Yuzu, showed just how much things can change in a year. Targeting nine repos linked to Switch emulator Ryujinx, the domino effect led to the removal of 4,238 repos. Elsewhere, the distilled components of Yuzu's demise can be found in recent takedown notices

Just stop feeding them. Nintendo is bad, mkay? And their games are mediocre at best.

Kinda hard to say when they're some of the most pirated games ever... But okay.

Downloads ≠ good

People are choosing to pirate them instead of pay for them and support the developer/publisher. 'Good enough to play for free' is also a statement.

Ahh yes. The ol' "we downloaded it because it was BAD lol" move. Classic. /s

It amazes me that you don't see how stupid what you just said was. It's entirely possible to have a good game where people don't want to support the developer/platform that it's been released for. It's totally fine. You can have two things at once. You can admit they make some good games. That doesn't lessen the argument that they're fuckin' evil.

Ahh yes, the ol' complete lack of nuance. A game isn't good so it has to be bad.

Seems the stupidity is contagious around these parts considering you go on to showcase situations of nuance. Engage brain please.

I'd play a mediocre game for free that I wouldn't pay for, what is your point exactly?

[–] Xanza@lemm.ee 3 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I feel that I was very clear. If you can't derive the meaning of something despite being led directly to the end of the puzzle, then there's nothing I'm gonna be able to do for you. Search your feelings, Luke.

You haven't, but okay, you do you.
