Developer of 3DS iPhone emulator says he's confident Nintendo won't serve him a DMCA takedown

Folium home screen on iPhone.

The developer of an upcoming Nintendo 3DS emulator for iPhone has told iMore he’s not worried about any potential problems from the gaming company, even after Nintendo issued more than 8,500 DMCA notices in a single day.

Jarrod Norwell is planning to charge $4.99 for Folium once Apple approves the emulator for the App Store — but there have been concerns about whether Nintendo would issue another takedown request because of this planned pricetag. In an email, Norwell told iMore he sees no problem charging for Folium. “Seeing as though everything is GPLv2 or later and clean room, a price tag is perfectly legal.”
