I am not a lawyer so can’t comment on the reverse engineered code counting as derivative. Personally, I thought it would be considered that. The time doesn’t mean much considering Yuzu.

Yuzu | Initial release | January 14, 2018; 6 years ago |

Yeah, but the Yuzu devs allegedly bragged about TotK running on EA builds before release. The decompilers weren't that stupid.

Decompilations are about as legal as emulators (that don't circumvent encryption).
