Stop using GitHub. Especially if you’re working on anything that corpo interests will frown on, but just generally, there are plenty of alternatives (both git and non-git) that aren’t owned by Microsoft.

The reasons cited here are… not really convincing

Well it’s probably cheaper than to innovate on the hardware front (display, performance, Joy-Cons, etc.) . And since they have an insane amount of money, it think they can keep doing this for quite some time…

I mean it’s easy to shit on the switch now that it’s a 7 year old console, and don’t get me wrong the joycon drift is fuckin ridiculous, but the switch was kinda impressive when it came out.

It is almost a zero cost. They already have the legal-ish ruling. It is just filling out a form letter and sending it out.

You don’t need a lawyer to file a DMCA request. You just need to be ready to get one if someone disputes it.

And Nintendo almost definitely have lawyers on retainer, if not in house. The added cost of this is the effort it takes to search github for “uzu” and send an email.

They almost certainly have in house legal teams and those lawyers are salaried.

who distributes ROMs on Discord. I guess most emulators will be fine.

I hope this doesn’t spread out towards other emulators just as a matter of “principle” (by Nintendo’s definition)

This is why I keep a physical backup of all my emulator installers on an external hard drive. They get rid of some emulators, I still got my personal copies!

Yeah I’ve been playing Pokemon Sacred Gold on my phone, really gives me GBC pipes with the size and everything it’s like childhood all over.

I have the emulator and the games on my pc and my phone though so fuck Nintendo.

I’m playing a 15 year old game someone improved upon that I already owned on hardware I can’t buy anymore.

Yeah totally worried for Ryujinx. I don’t see how they can survive.

If Nintendo stays consistent, they went after Yuzu because they were accepting donations. They went after ROM sites that had advertising. They left everyone else alone if they aren’t making money off their games. Right now Ryujinx has a Patreon page…
