Nintendo will be playing Whack-A-Mole with Yuzu forks and Switch emulators forever.
I hope these developers can continue to waste Nintendo's time and money even more.

Is it really a waste of Nintendo's time and money if they keep winning?
-
Winning is relative, they can't stop distribution if the creators are careful about it.
-
They keep paying money for attorneys and court proceedings but don't get anything in return, since the code is out there and will just be shared again by someone else. Hence: whack-a-mole
-
If a new one just pops up going after the previous one was indeed pointless.
-
i can go to thousands of places and download yuzu right now. without even trying.
they are doing nothing but wasting their own time and giving their own brand a poor image in the process.

A company like Nintendo definitely has a law firm on retainer. They're paying them whether or not they're being used. There's no waste of money happening by going after "IP violations."
A waste of time and energy, perhaps. But the lawyers are getting the same money whether they do this or nothing at all.

Having the keys on their official website to download seems a bit risky. We don't provide the keys on github, so we will fight the DMCA, but use this media fire link to download them...
-
When will people learn that GitHub isn’t the place to put code that was previously removed from there?
-
Is Sudachi a Yuzu fork?
-
Why aren't Nintendo bothering ryujinx like this?
-
Shut up. Don't give them any more ideas, please.
-
They'd be going after them if they thought they could. I'm sure they'll find a reason eventually.

Yuzi provided means to grab keys and firmware from a Switch console, which seems to be a big red flag and a reason why Nintendo went after them. Sudachi also has guides and download links for decryption keys and Switch firmware. From what I can see ryujinx only provides some guides on how to get the keys from a Switch but no apparent download links or "shortcuts"
Besides, we should not be pointing fingers at emulator devs. Companies are not your friend, we're just a means to profit for them.
-
It's also suspected that Yuzu was not "clean room" reversed engineered and built on code that they shouldn't have had access to, which will allow Nintendo to pull down any fork of Yuzu but not Ryujinx.
