That is moronic reasoning, but it was also moronic of the Yuzu team to have an open patreon for a fricking emulator especially for a company that now has a guy named Bowser chained to a radiator in their basement for life for doing something exactly like that.

In other words

The patreon was only for support not for distributing anything. Sony tried to sue a playstation emulator development team before and it didn't work out because they were not distributing anything through their patreon either.

He was selling physical hacks, not developing software emulators.

Connectix VGS and Bleem! were both paid emulators. There's no legal issues with emulation paid or not. I don't know what Nintendo is hoping for but I hope they lose and pay damages. I assume they either try to screw them on DMCA violation or prove that the work isn't clean room. Or they try to get emulation usage restricted. Either way Nintendo's fricking gay and they should lose.

I couldn't find it but I'm pretty sure there was a somewhat recent legal case on emulation.

I want Nintendo to lose enough money that they're forced to start releasing their games on actually good platforms.

Correct me if I'm wrong because I am getting my info second-hand from channers and redditards, but wasn't the Bleem lawsuit never actually resolved because the company was hammered by too many court fees and they had to shut down?

And Connectix managed to pull a Chinese Wall with the PSX BIOS which is why the courts ruled in their favor. I don't think the Yuzu guys were that clever. Even still, things didn't really end well for Connectix:

The case was eventually closed in favor of Connectix, but Connectix was unable to sell the software in the meantime because Sony had been awarded a temporary injunction. Soon thereafter, Sony purchased VGS from Connectix and discontinued it.

Pretty sure Bleem! won but they definitely shuttered from legal costs. Still though these cases set the legal precedents for emulation.

Yuzu for sure isn't that clever. I think the reason they're being targeted over Ryujinx is that they are more than likely violating Nintendo's copyright through some DMCA restriction.

If I understood correctly, they were distributing unreleased versions of Yuzu to patreon supporters while stable versions were open to the public. Or was that something else?

You're right, it wasn't exactly the same, but my point was that it's an extremely litigious company that is known to rake anyone over the coals who tries making a profit off their hardware.

Still wouldn't be an issue to do that. Paid emulators are allowed.
