I need to remind some people here who don't seem to understand something.

Forks may be dead and development may not be as fast as the original.

However - you must think about the future and not the situation right now. Yuzu and Ryujinx sources will be invaluable information for people making emulators later down the line.

It's a matter of when and not if someone picks it up again.

Yeah hopefully.

I said this in another thread; I hope whoever picks it up keeps their dev team anonymous or prepares to enter this era's legal battle, especially since it was supposedly already decided with an old Sony lawsuit against emulators.

Yes, both Yuzu and Ryujinx were open source.

Ryujinx is licensed under MIT and Yuzu is under GPLv3.

Agree. Was thinking exactly the same this afternoon. If there would be a new generational console evolution (like it happened from the Wii to the Switch), then the when would be much faster. However, since it seems Nintendo is going for a Switch 2, I am just sad that Switch emulators will be halted for several years :/
