The emulator forks which are being taken down are as follows:

Despite this, the *one* fork that continues, and *will* continue without takedown is **Ryubing** - by Greemdev. This is created by an original member of the Ryujinx team. It's safe, the code is beyond reproach (and violates zero laws or Nintendo code) and actually brings helpful updates.

Still...shitty news. And more indication that the Switch 2's architecture will be *damn similar* to that of this current Switch. Them taking emulators down means the upcoming games have a solid chance of being emulatable on release. But...that's my own (and others') conjecture, so we'll see when the time comes.

Nintendo can gargle on my balls. Fuck this POS company. I doubt they'll ever be able to completely kill emulators. I have so many copies of Yuzu and Suyu that are backed up everywhere. They all work. Because fuck Nintendo.

I grew up with the very mention of the word Nintendo triggering dopamine spews in my brain. It's so hard to turn hatred toward them, but the time has come. They've turned into such dicks.

Your second paragraph is a very interesting point that I for some reason haven't considered. Explains why they're going after emulators left and right.
