There’s no need to profit from it anymore, donations exist, Nintendo created a Streisand effect.

Emulators are fine for personal use, if you are accepting donations, it’s no longer for personal use and you’ve done your illegal action……

Why do you think the ones that don’t accept donations aren’t being targeted…? Because they are currently in a gray area. Once you start doing illegal actions… they get taken out.

That’s factually incorrect. They’ve gone after Dolphin whom explicitly don’t accept donations. Then there’s, Ryujinx, Cemu, Libretro/RetroArch, emuDeck, etc. that accept donations. This again comes down to the GPLv3 which doesn’t restrict the selling of binaries of the legal code nor restrict donations. Infact if one is only accepting donations, your company by U.S. copyright law are a nonprofit.
