In February, Nintendo sued the makers of the Switch emulator Yuzu, saying it "unlawfully circumvents the technological measures" that help deter piracy of Switch games. Just a couple weeks later, Yuzu settled, agreeing to halt development and pay $2.4 million to the company, a decisive win for Nintendo that led us to wonder whether it would pursue similar action against other emulators, particularly the Yuzu competitor Ryujinx. Now we have our answer.
"Yesterday, [Ryujinx creator] gdkchan was contacted by Nintendo and offered an agreement to stop working on the project, remove the organization and all related assets he's in control of," developer and moderator rip in peri peri posted on the Ryujinx Discord. "While awaiting confirmation on whether he would take this agreement, the organization has been removed, so I think it's safe to say what the outcome is."
