But uh... fuck. This fucking sucks, Yuzu is basically dead now, they have to disband and take down their code. If Yuzu lives it will only be pirate copies floating around, further development will... basically have to go underground more like game crackers, as this very settlement establishes that Nintendo will sue you into oblivion if you publicly work on this. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Jerkface@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Yeah, it's pretty disappointing. I keep hearing people say it'll get forked and people will continue the work. All I can say is "lol." permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] vexikron@lemmy.zip 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) It has apparently been rehosted as 'Nuzu' on github... but I wouldn't be surprised if that or any similar instance just gets taken down once it gets reasonably popular. MSFT sure as shit doesnt want to get sued by Nintendo. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Jerkface@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) Oh, you'll always be able to find a copy if you're willing to look for it. I will be very surprised if we see meaningful development again. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] vexikron@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 years ago Yeah thats the main problem, significant development is likely to be crushed. permalink fedilink source parent
