Nintendo Switch emulator Yuzu will utterly fold and pay $2.4M to settle its lawsuit
www.theverge.com
Just about a week after getting sued.

This also includes ceasing development and destroying their copies of the code.

The GitHub repo page for Yuzu now returns a 404, as well. In addition, the repo for the Citra 3DS emulator was also taken down.

As of at least 23:30 UTC, Yuzu’s website and Citra’s website have been replaced with a statement about their discontinuation.

    It’s a use case, but I would argue that it’s not a significant use case.

    And that’s the answer to your question about what Yuzu would have fought if they had the money to take on Nintendo.

    Emulators are still legal in theory, but I doubt that it is in practice possible to make an emulator for a modern video game system without violating some other part of the law.

    That’s exactly what hasn’t been determined, since Yuzu settled and it didn’t go to court.
