Well that blew up, huh? If you follow emulation or just gaming on the whole, you've probably heard about the controversy around the Dolphin Steam release and the Wii Common Key. There's been a lot of conclusions made, and while we've wanted to defend ourselves, we thought it would be prudent to contact lawyers first to make sure that our understanding of the situation was legally sound. That took some time, which was frustrating to ourselves and to our users, but now we are educated and ready to give an informed response.

    Thanks for posting this. It’s a good read. I’m stoked that Dolphin will continue to be developed with or without Steam.

    I wonder if this will affect the ability to use Dolphin on a SteamDeck. I’m sure people will figure out Dolphin on the Deck, or already have.

      Towards the bottom they mention SteamDeck plans going forward

      some of the features being developed for the Steam release will still work in Dolphin’s normal builds, and are still being developed.

      It’s pretty easy to get the Dolphin flatpak and run EmuDeck. I don’t think people’s ability to use Dolphin will be too hampered
