Most of these forks are going nowhere, Nuzu is run by an “almost 15” year old kid, probably trying to cash in on a Patreon he set up
Edit: Suyu owner pirates games on reddit, yeah these aren’t serious efforts lol
wow, they “killed” an open source project… did they really think it was that easy?
I mean they also got 2.4 mil and they can continue collecting them from new projects
They haven’t gotten the money yet, and they probably never will get the full amount.
They probably won’t even be taking anyone else to court, either. Ryujinx will probably make major changes or shut down entirely to avoid getting sued in the first place.
That’s on paper. It’s extremely unlikely that they set an LLC with millions of dollars in assets. The reason they set up the LLC was that if they got sued they could settle for any amount, knowing that they would just declare bankruptcy and pay nothing except their legal fees (which, having settled immediately, are very low)
Yeah it kinda is. You can fork projects all day but assembling a team of intelligent and motivated individuals to actually maintain the project is a whole other problem. Add to that the fear of litigation and multi-million dollar lawsuits and I’d say Switch emulation will be all but dead in the near future.
The main developers won’t be touching it. That’s a pretty big deal since they were the lifeblood of the project.
Potentially recoverable, but still a big deal.
Second. There’s no chance that a “reputable” site. Like GitHub, gitlab, etc will be hosting any of these projects for long. That’s significant too.
And that’s probably why Yuzu didn’t stand up to Nintendo. They probably had enough areas for Nintendo to attack that fighting it could leave the emulator community worse off if it goes to trial. Why risk the money to fight something unless you’re sure you can win?
Suyu, as in “Sue you”?
Wouldn’t have “Sume” been better than “Suyu”?
cut off one head and two more grow back in it’s place.
