And they still feel the need to have a legal team that rivals Disney hunting down and harassing every fan project and emulation team.
Every emulation team? Did they sue others too?
Internet people: NINTENDO IS DESTROYING ALL EMULATORS raaaaaaaa
Reality: Nintendo sued exactly one emulator that was literally charging people to play pirated games
This is incorrect they actually issued dmca take down notices to about 20 emulator forks, Gary’s mod content, a couple home brew projects and an out of court settlement with Yuzu. This is just recently.
Nintendo has a history of being hostile to the emulation, homebrew and modding community.
So as @infotainment@lemmy.world said, they took down exactly one emulator. As you restated.
I feel like you’re arguing semantics about that one emulator. At least three of those forks had completely independent teams from yuzu.
The previous commenter implied that the only hostile thing Nintendo has done recently was the yuzu settlement, which is leaving out a lot of the picture
Yuzu + Citra = One Emulator?
Actually, charging people for emulation isn’t illegal. The main problem, that I can figure out, is that they specifically marketed / advertised that upcoming Switch games (TotK) runs better on Yuzu than Switch. Main issue is that they did it before TotK was released.
Disclaimer: Not a legal expert, just what I could figure out from reading different stuff / articles.
Exactly, which is why I said “charging people to play pirated games” (though I suppose it was really just one game, so no plural was needed.)
Oh I see why they shut down the Super Mario Maker 1 servers, money is getting tight at Nintendo.
All mobile games besides Pokemon GO felt very mediocre to me. The quality wasn’t bad but not exellent either.
PoGo model update has entered the chat.
I got the Cofagrigus mask before the update and have not taken it off since. My girlfriend hates how her character looks now though.
I wonder how much they make off the infinite amount of garbage “games” on their eshop
