Out of curiosity, how have these guys survived when other Nintendo emulators have been take down?

[–] nanoUFO 9 points 7 months ago

Only Yuzu got taken down. Ryujinx another switch emulator is doing just fine because they aren't doing dumb things.

AFAIK only one got killed because the devs shared ROMs on Discord.

Two, actually, but the second was collateral damage since the same devs were working on it. (Yuzu and Citra.)

The current maintained fork, afaik, is Lime3DS, in case anyone was still looking for it. Supports Android directly too, so no needing to hunt down that separately.

[–] zarkanian 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Oh, good. I was worried that nobody was going to pick up Citra since it seemed like Yuzu was getting all of the attention.

Glad to help, I found it out myself just the other day from the emulation wiki.

Even more impressive considering the keys are shipped with dolphin

[–] zarkanian 2 points 7 months ago

Probably because they're emulating old systems that Nintendo doesn't care about anymore.

I'm so glad we're finally clawing software freedom from iOS. But I'm neither thrilled nor surprised they're being complete dicks about it.

A true work of love and dedication. Dolphin & RPCS3 have excellent reports.
