Following the recent lawsuit against the Nintendo Switch emulator Yuzu, the emulation community is experiencing some significant changes. The fallout from the Yuzu settlement has had a ripple effect, with other emulators like Citra and Drastic also feeling the impact. The developer of Drastic has made their app free on Android and plans to remove it from the market entirely. Additionally, Bunnei, a developer involved in Nintendo console emulation, has announced their departure from the scene.
In response to the legal implications surrounding emulation, some Discord servers have taken precautionary measures. The Steam Deck server has temporarily shut down its emulation channel, citing concerns over potential legal repercussions. The Ryujinx Discord server has also faced changes, including temporarily pausing invites due to an influx of users from the Yuzu server.
As a result of the Yuzu lawsuit, all-in-one emulation providers like EmuDeck are shifting their focus to alternative emulators such as Ryujinx and Panda3DS. The emulation community is bracing for further changes as a result of these developments.
