Thread: Nintendo Forces Switch Emulator Ryujinx to Shut Down
Running a game before release doesn't make the emulator illegal anymore than your game console would be illegal for running a game shipped to you ahead of the street date.

Someone probably broke the law but not the emulator or its devs.

But the augment by some people is it's not used for pirating. It's been proven many times that games been pirated even before released. Especially Nintendo developed games where the only place that can supposedly be played is on a Nintendo console!
 
Anyways, do you guys think the reason retards at Nintendo only remembered Switch emulation is a thing this late and this close to the next console release, because the Switch 2 is so similar it can be easily emulated (using the emulators they chased down, Dolphin style)?
Most likely yes.

That's good though, since it means the day one version might as be as hackable as the switch. I'll never sell my launch unit ;)

NSPs are released up to a week or two before the game launches all the time yet the games still sell like pancakes.

Fuck Nintendo
 
I've never seen so many babies cry over Nintendo 😭

It'd make sense if yall boycotted them. But all these folks screaming Fuck Nintendo are just pushing their brand further. Be honest, you're always going to talk about Nintendo. Whether it's bitching and complaining and hating, or the other enjoying their products. You're still going to play their games for free and that includes plenty that you haven't and will not pay for. But you're still going to play, you're still going to form opinions about their games and forever talk about them because you don't have the willpower to completely cut Nintendo out of your gaming habits. Have fun bros, playing Nintendo 😉
 
I was playing both the latest Pokemon game and the latest Tears of the kingdom a solid week on emulator before they were released to consumers.

The fact I could do that speaks to greater internal problems with Nintendo than anything else.

If that logic works for Nintendo then it applies to all the woke games people cry about on here too ;)

I really could take or leave all Nintendo games. I had access to every Switch game for free (and a few I bought). Only Mario Kart or Odyssey got over 5 hours play time. But I get your point, if it was a Sony cinematic game it would be hard to resist even if Sony were acting as shitty as Nintendo. Not sure what I would do tbh.

I wouldn't put it past them to leave a massive hardware exploit again.
 
I don't know if restraining orders are a thing in Brazil, but if for some reason they tried that stalking and harassment stuff with me I'd have them legally removed. If they didn't cease, then I'd take them to court.

It's just crazy what they're doing.

Really making use of those Yakuza connections.

So you say. But will you? Probably not. You're most likely content with playing some of the greatest games in the industry, which happen to be made and made exclusive by Nintendo. Will you go without playing Nintendo games? But what about word of mouth? Are you going to be able to keep your mouth shut about Nintendo whether positive or negative feedback? Doubtful, but maybe. Let's try right now. Can you make a decision right now and keep to your word going forward? I know my stance - I'll be playing Nintendo games. And I'll gladly pay the artists working to create them

I think it would be a fan boy move for me to say at this point I definitely would or would not play them. I'll see what's presented in front of me and see if it overrides the companies shitty behaviour, same way I do for Sony games.

I love your positivity for Nintendo games, you post brought a smile to my face, in a way its a mirror of my love for cinematic Sony games.

But no matter the circumstances or who from I buy the game I play it how I want, where I want. :)
 
As DonDon talked about earlier, and as a former freeloader from real pirates myself (shit my first pirated game was a Chuck Yaeger "freeware" on DOS) ufff. Yeah, pirates love to sugarcoat.

80%, and i'm being generous with the number here, does emulation to play games for free.

And believe me, I am all in for preservation, and I know that there is a number that goes with this for that reason, and for the technical education that comes from it. But as i've said myself all these years: you are kidding yourself if you don't think this is all about piracy and freeloading.

But don't fret, after all, there is always a way, a loophole. This will be a nuisance to ya'll for some time only.

So why all the fuss??? 🤷🏾‍♂️

How would it be a "fan boy move" to never play or speak of another Nintendo game again? You probably can't even do that. I doubt anyone here could. There's always going to be someone either playing the games, talking about them, or at the very least thinking about them and wanting to bash them or praise them

I like Nintendo games the most. They mog PS and Xbox with ease these days. I used to like PlayStation a ton, but that was before all the poor choices. I used to like Xbox but that was before all the poor choices. Now they both just offer scraps tbh, not to mention they pander to the gays like no tomorrow

That's fine for games that you actually purchase. But you don't purchase every game that you play. Or do you? I kind of doubt you purchase every single game that you play on the PC. If you do not purchase every game that you play on an emulator, then what do you call that? And I kind of doubt that you or any other PC gamer would boldly walk up to an executive of Nintendo/PlayStation/Xbox and tell them "I enjoyed playing your games on (x) emulator for free" because you know what could happen

It would be a fan boy move because it would be born of misplaced passion. Like why would I say ill never play a Nintendo game again when one could potentially come round the corner and be everything I want in a game? Or vice versa say I'd only play Nintnedo games only etc.

I purchase every game that is available for sale to me on PC, but if it's not available I'll emulate until it is. I'd say 95% of my games are bought.

I don't care too much about Nintendo, or Xbox to be honest and even Sony has lost alot of it's prestige IMO.
