What do they think they achieve with this?

[–] csolisr@hub.azkware.net 34 points 1 month ago

Forcing people to purchase the Switch 2 for their handheld needs, obviously </sarcasm>

@nichtburningturtle @mr_MADAFAKA not sure, there's already like 500 forks up, may the one with the coolest name win.

it's in the repo for basically any linux distribution too so the source and executables are mirrored on literally thousands of servers and easily downloadable, so absolute worst case scenario it's version froze at 1.1.1388 for the time being.

all that happened to yuzu is a slight name change so i don't expect much more here.

All of the commits for Suyu, the most active yuzu "fork" this year is like 20 different readme/URL changes, lol. Nintendo 100% succeeded in killing it.

@nichtburningturtle @mr_MADAFAKA confirmed, the full git history up to yesterday is preserved and already mirrored all over, so it's all good 👍

More like may the one with actual development and updates win

What kinda question is that? Mobbing the developers out of switch emulation.

The only two options where you and ryujinx and they are both taken out, all the forks are jokes because the developers that had real abilities worked on the main projects.
