Source code mirrors, since the code is legal: (This is not a case of copyright infringement.)
https://git.naxdy.org/Mirror/Ryujinx
https://git.l7y.media/mirrors/Ryujinx
The commit hashes on both of those mirrors match the official ones at least until March 2024 (v1.1.1217). I can’t vouch for the more recent commits that extend through today (v1.1.1403), but the two mirrors do at least match each other.
Warning: A zip file in the ryujinx_202410 subdir of https://archive.org/download/ claims to have the full git history, but the hashes do not match the original source repo. It’s possible that the mismatch is an artifact of some accident, rather than malice, but I would avoid it just in case.
Striking YT channels, expanding their Palworld lawsuit and now this? There’s no denying that they wasn’t always pretty litigious, but they’re picking up speed at an absurd pace. Did recently they hire some of Oracles lawyers or what?
Good thing there’s now enough competition in the handheld market, so I’m no longer reliant on their under-powered devices.
They realized that most people will just cave and not actually go through the hassle of Defending themselves in court, so therefore why not
Im loving the steam deck and the amount of options we have now-days. But yeah lots of litigation.
Can’t wait 'till they go to sue Valve for enabling people to perform piracy of their software on their platform.
An “agreement” is no court order, so this is perfectly legal:

Fuck Nintendo. The emulators are still out there, easily accessible alongside the leaked Nintendo games they wanted people not to pirate. I know I will be doing that even harder now, lol.
They were working on iOS and Android ports.

:(
It’s insane that Nintendo feels the need to go after the strugglers that play on emulator, despite their console being the most successful on the market, still selling like crazy after almost a decade, and with the successor being one of the most anticipated consoles ever. That line must go up, even if it’s just an inch more.
Fuck Nintendo.
It’s my understanding that the creator took a payout.
It’s my understanding that the creator took a payout.
AFAIK the only statement so far is “agreement” and that that can also mean a legally binding document to take down Ryujinx and never again develop Nintendo emulators or get sued to the moon and back, ie. “sign here or financial ruin”.
Well it was my understanding it was a payout because the creator was from Brazil and Nintendo wouldn’t be able to go after him for like DMCA type route.
Or something. I don’t exactly have my finger right on the pulse, I’m just repeating what I’ve read elsewhere.
Nintendo wouldn’t be able to go after him for like DMCA type route.
Old school suing about “aiding and abetting” piracy until the defendant has no money left to pay lawyers works pretty much all over the world.
I mean, not really. There are definitely countries that don’t care about IP very much, even if they have laws on the book. This is why some piracy sites survive for years and years and years.
“According to an official statement on Ryujinx’s Discord server, developer gdkchan was contacted by Nintendo and they were offered an agreement to stop working on the emulator project, and while the agreement wasn’t confirmed yet, the organization has been entirely removed.”
See ya space cowboy.
Now the only place to get things are on not github. Some kind of berg with code in it. Either way GL to anyone using emulators.
It’s not currently down, it seems to be deleted entirely. This was said on the Discord:
“Yesterday, gdkchan was contacted by Nintendo and offered an agreement to stop working on the project, remove the organization and all related assets he’s in control of. While awaiting confirmation on whether he would take this agreement, the organization has been removed, so I think it’s safe to say what the outcome is. Rather than leave you with only panic and speculation, I decided to write this short message to give some closure.
These words are my own. I don’t want to speak for anyone else here, so just remember that while reading.
Thank you to @everyone who has contributed code, documentation or issue reports to the project. Thank you all for following us throughout the development. I was able to learn a lot of really neat things about games that I love, enjoy them with renewed qualities and in unique circumstances, and I’m sure you all have experiences that are similarly special. I’m extending my own massive thanks to our moderation team, who have been here through some rough circumstances and always found ways to make light of it.”
Well long till they go after bsnes, project64, or dolphin?
I think dolphin is next. Followed by discords/websites that talk about emulation in general.
So my Ryujinx setup won’t start, it post an error message, though it was an offline setup, seems that this is not the case.
yeah I had the same thing when I thought I archived the installer for Citra and yuzu. guess we have to go find pre-compiled setups now.
Fuck.
