      Once something is on the internet, trying to take it down will only make it spread more. Especially on a site like GitHub where forking a repo is built-in functionality.

        via this thread here is a 🧲 magnet link for a torrent someone made containing “all their Github issues, the git repo on its last version, the latest available release binaries from the Github page, and all of their progress reports from the Yuzu website”.

        You think no one will pick up the old code and work on it?

        You think the original devs won’t consider going back at it through a means that is anonymous and minimizes their risk?

        I’ve never ever seen a platform with an emulator lose the emulator without someone eventually filling the void. The interest is there. More people than ever can code.

          No I mean these forks popping up are all just that, forks. There’s no developers behind them. Everyone’s trying to find which fork will continue where yuzu left off, but none of them have anyone working on them. It’s gonna take time for the dust to settle.

        I mean, that’ll only affect new releases. And even then, it’ll probably only affect new releases that are doing things in radically new ways. Old/current games (and even lots of new releases) will be fine to play.

    Everyone on the Internet who had been paying attention has a fork. Don’t freak out. It’s fine.

      Just an FYI, DMCA takedown requests will affect forks. If you’re genuinely worried about something getting taken down, you should make offline copies. So even if your fork gets nuked by the DMCA, you still have the files and can rebuild it.

    At this point I just wanna burn nitendogs up. If by any change they sue the Zelda oot port to PC, I would probably start making tutorials to crack all Nintendo stuff for free.

          Here’s a reminder that your neopets haven’t been fed in decades. You left them to starve. You monster.

      If they took action against the OOT PC port I would lie down, try not to cry, then cry a lot.

      OOT at 4k60 is such a beautiful, fun experience—especially with a good randomizer. Yes I’m old.

        Yuzu was making nearly $30k a month just from their Patreon alone, so I’d doubt that, plus they shut everything down anyways

            That is just one route of income, they probably have reserved funds, plus since they agreed it’s probably payable

    let’s be real here.

    none of us are happy with the outcome.

    pretty much ALL of us would have settled for $2.4 million.
