    Sounds like this was more of a bribe than any legal case against the emulator. In which case nothing is stopping anyone from putting a fork back up, and gdkchan gets to laugh all the way to the bank.

      Problem is …is that Nintendo may have “purchased” the code so anyone making or publishing forks would be in breach of “copyright”

        Ryujinx was released as open source under the MIT license. They can’t retroactively rescind that license.

      I’m thinking less bribe and “laughing away to the bank” and more of a “Nintendo threatened to ruin their life with legal fees if it wasn’t taken down”. The frivolity of said case is irrelevant when they just bully normal people legally like that.
