For now at least. Given Nintendo's efforts to get rid of Yuzu and Ryujinx I think it's likely that the legal days may be numbered. All they have to do is get it in front of the right judge(s) and the precedent by the Connectix and the Bleem lawsuits is undone.

Not that I particularly care if it's legal; I seriously doubt anyone is going to break into my house to seize my MiSTer as contraband, but I think it's entirely possible that emulation progress stalls because it's forced to move into the shadows.



Nintendo was able to pressure RyujinX because it relied on stolen code.


This isn't true. They were able to pressure yuzu instead because of fixes for the leaked version of the TOTK ROM.


You’re right, I was thinking of Yuzu.


I’m having trouble finding citation for that. Not saying you’re lying just maybe don’t have the right keywords to search for which code was stolen.
