I shall welcome the Linux sisters.

When you port BSD tools to Linux…

Nostalgia at its finest.

You haven’t addressed :

“it’s still on the Google play store and Apple app store and actively developed so why doesn’t Nintendo keep coming?”

Or

“Also, Churches are non-profit, KDE Community are non-profit, Gnome is non-profit, FSF is non-profit, and so on. All of which collect donations. What makes an emulator start-up company any different in this regard?”

Go ahead and block me, it just makes it obvious that you’re afraid to address the main point.

Are you going to address the main point or are you just going to continue to prattle on?

Again, factually wrong. Dolphin removed itself off the steam store to satisfy Nintendo, however it’s still on the Google play store and Apple app store and actively developed so why doesn’t Nintendo keep coming?
Also, Churches are non-profit, KDE Community are non-profit, Gnome is non-profit, FSF is non-profit, and so on. All of which collect donations. What makes an emulator start-up company any different in this regard?

You have no clue how the GPLv3 works, nor U.S. Copyright law. Please stop pretending like you do.

Then why hasn’t Nintendo fallowed through and killed Dolphin yet? If it’s illegal, then why haven’t they continued trying to sue Dolphin?

That’s factually incorrect. They’ve gone after Dolphin whom explicitly don’t accept donations. Then there’s, Ryujinx, Cemu, Libretro/RetroArch, emuDeck, etc. that accept donations. This again comes down to the GPLv3 which doesn’t restrict the selling of binaries of the legal code nor restrict donations. Infact if one is only accepting donations, your company by U.S. copyright law are a nonprofit.

There’s no need to profit from it anymore, donations exist, Nintendo created a Streisand effect.

Exactly!! Nintendo knew that if Yuzu were to press on and bleed financially just slow enough that Nintendo would take the L. Having big implications essentially permanently legalizing emulators, never being able to challenge them in any meaningful way. They just wanted the project gone so gave them a favorable deal that wouldn’t complete bankrupt Yuzu, so they took it. Walked away from the project and now it’s in the communities hands not to mention in the arctic vault.

To bad, GPLv3 already has all the precedence and legal backing needed to keep going, Suyu lives, I wonder what the project will be renamed to next? 😏

Those are your own words. Unfortunately for you, Nintendo still lost. GPLv3 is a tweaked Copyright licensing agreement aptly nicknamed “Copyleft” with strict rights, Nintendo will never be able to kill the Hydra no matter what. They actually need to win to change the law, but they settled instead meaning section 107 of the DMCA, 1998 US copyright law goes unaltered and the original developers move on, and the community builds on top and alter the project, as per the rights granted by GPLv3. Perhaps a project that’d reach enough funding fast enough to challenge Nintendo may go for it, till then GPLv3 is a sleeping multi-headed dragon Nintendo hasn’t been able to stomp out.

Sorry this doesn’t fit with your head bias, but facts don’t care.

His “company” so excluding random ass users and 3rd party contributors. US copyright law is based on precedence. I’m sure you’re aware of the list. Also, check out GPLv3 while you’re at it.

You’re asking the wrong question.
The question is where was the lawsuit filed?

“Nintendo of America filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court, District of Rhode Island, against Tropic Haze LLC, the developer of the “Yuzu” emulator.”

You clearly don’t understand US copyright law, that’s the problem here. This argument is ultimately pointless, Nintendo trying to force Japanese copyright law on the US will be a never ending battle. GPLv3 makes it live on, just how GPLv3 makes Revanced live on. It’ll never stop.

I’ve been digging into the thread using nitter and all I see is a few screenshots of allegedly “GoldenX86_64” talking some crap about a “stash” then further searching found more screenshots with conflicting information and saying unproven crap about Ryujinx. Notice how neither of them show user ID so it’s impossible to verify that either of them are the real GoldenX86_64, I can literally fake this shit myself using a private server.
More over, GoldenX86_64 wasn’t even a Yuzu team member despite the headliner claims, they were a 3rd party contributor and nothing more. How do I know this? Because their Github account is right here with all of its history. Literally, just use git log & git blame.
Also, I find it funny how nobody making these claims thought for a second to show any proof that these are the same person via user ID or other methods, when it took me less than 5 minutes to find the real GoldenX86_64’s personal email & legal name.
Lastly, using Wayback to view the now deleted source of these claims (which is suspect as hell), you’ll notice discrepancies such as “Files Owned by dysonshere.com” as well as many other mentions of dysonshere.com so… WHO IS DYSONSHERE ??, as you see can it was registered in 2022-12-31.
You expect me to believe that the devs were using this so-called “stash” for a project that started in 2013? When this “stash” was registered literally a little less than 10 years later? You can’t be fucking serious. 🤦🏽‍♀️
More over there’s no proof that Yuzu owned this domain either, therefore even if they used this “stash” which is unproven, the DMCA requires that Yuzu be the one facilitating distribution, therefore users and 3rd party contributors sharing a link on discord to a 3rd party “stash” doesn’t qualify. More over, it’s additionally important to note, that the use of ROMs for emulator testing doesn’t qualify as copyright infringement as the copyright content regardless if dumped from legitimate hardware with legal homebrew tools or otherwise isn’t included in the source. So as the DMCA requires them to be the distributors via the ROMs or via the source, which they don’t meet, they don’t qualify. The only legal stance that could possibly be stood on would be if they were using the SDK, which is again, unproven.

Oh, and one more thing. Why the fuck would the devs have PORN in their alleged “dev stash” ??

The math is just not mathing.

As per US law, Nintendo needs to prove beyond a responsible doubt that Yuzu infringed on their copyright. While all these allegation look bad, there are big gaping holes.
If this is all Nintendo had the case would no doubt go to Yuzu. Assuming they could possibly survive the court fees and multi year lawsuit(s) Nintendo is going to drag them though. It doesn’t matter anyway, it was settled out of court so in the end Yuzu still won and didn’t go bankrupt in the process, as the law stays unchanged and GPLv3 does it’s thing. 💾🔬👾👩🏽‍💻💡

I just find it funny how even after countless people repeatedly asking him to show solid proof of Yuzu illegally distributing encryption keys the best he could come up with is some random ass user on Twitter saying the same bs claims without any proof; Twitter, a platform that’s totally not over 50% bot’s and a totally reputable source of information, just the peak of human intelligence over there 🙄.
