    Oh I see why they shut down the Super Mario Maker 1 servers, money is getting tight at Nintendo.

    And they still feel the need to have a legal team that rivals Disney hunting down and harassing every fan project and emulation team.

        Internet people: NINTENDO IS DESTROYING ALL EMULATORS raaaaaaaa

        Reality: Nintendo sued exactly one emulator that was literally charging people to play pirated games

          Actually, charging people for emulation isn’t illegal. The main problem, that I can figure out, is that they specifically marketed / advertised that upcoming Switch games (TotK) runs better on Yuzu than Switch. Main issue is that they did it before TotK was released.

          Disclaimer: Not a legal expert, just what I could figure out from reading different stuff / articles.

            Exactly, which is why I said “charging people to play pirated games” (though I suppose it was really just one game, so no plural was needed.)

          This is incorrect they actually issued dmca take down notices to about 20 emulator forks, Gary’s mod content, a couple home brew projects and an out of court settlement with Yuzu. This is just recently.

          Nintendo has a history of being hostile to the emulation, homebrew and modding community.

    All mobile games besides Pokemon GO felt very mediocre to me. The quality wasn’t bad but not exellent either.
