They settled for $2.4M and shut everything down.

We write today to inform you that yuzu and yuzu’s support of Citra are being discontinued, effective immediately.

Once something is on the internet, trying to take it down will only make it spread more. Especially on a site like GitHub where forking a repo is built-in functionality.

Oof that image is old. I'm old :(.

via this thread here is a 🧲 magnet link for a torrent someone made containing "all their Github issues, the git repo on its last version, the latest available release binaries from the Github page, and all of their progress reports from the Yuzu website".

good thanks

Everyone on the Internet who had been paying attention has a fork. Don't freak out. It's fine.

[–] Mic_Check_One_Two@reddthat.com 14 points 11 months ago

Just an FYI, DMCA takedown requests will affect forks. If you’re genuinely worried about something getting taken down, you should make offline copies. So even if your fork gets nuked by the DMCA, you still have the files and can rebuild it.

At this point I just wanna burn nitendogs up. If by any change they sue the Zelda oot port to PC, I would probably start making tutorials to crack all Nintendo stuff for free.

You may want to search up what Nintendogs are

[–] sigmaklimgrindset@sopuli.xyz 22 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Pour one out for all those digital dogs that sit neglected on old DS's everywhere. Thank god they aren't sentient.

Here’s a reminder that your neopets haven’t been fed in decades. You left them to starve. You monster.

[–] Morphit@feddit.uk 3 points 11 months ago

I'm pretty sure my Tamagotchi has decayed back into sand and oil by now.

[–] mariusafa@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 11 months ago

They probably made that game so i couldnt insult them saying Nintendogs

[–] ProfessorProteus@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If they took action against the OOT PC port I would lie down, try not to cry, then cry a lot.

OOT at 4k60 is such a beautiful, fun experience—especially with a good randomizer. Yes I'm old.

[–] PlexSheep@feddit.de 1 points 11 months ago

I'd wonder if it survives for more than half a year.

Nobody lol, they'll declare bankruptcy because they have nowhere near that much

[–] Aatube@kbin.melroy.org 8 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Yuzu was making nearly $30k a month just from their Patreon alone, so I'd doubt that, plus they shut everything down anyways

[–] pufferfischerpulver@feddit.de 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I mean 2.4mio divided by 30k is 80. So that's a lot of patreon months..

[–] Aatube@kbin.melroy.org 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

That is just one route of income, they probably have reserved funds, plus since they agreed it's probably payable

[–] Aatube@kbin.melroy.org 7 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Yuzu and Citra paying Nintendo

[–] sic_semper_tyrannis@feddit.ch 6 points 11 months ago

That's terrible

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 1 points 11 months ago

:( If it were the other way around, I guess Nintendo could just buy the project and shut it down for less.

[–] wrath_of_grunge@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago

let's be real here.

none of us are happy with the outcome.

pretty much ALL of us would have settled for $2.4 million.
