Ryujinx emulator taken down after devs reach agreement with Nintendo
gbatemp.net
In what could possibly be the worst way to start October for emulation enthusiasts, as of just a few minutes ago the Ryujinx repository appears to be down, with the usual "404" message being given when trying to enter any of their related GitHub pages. Not even the main Ryujinx developer account...

According to an official statement on Ryujinx’s Discord server, developer gdkchan was contacted by Nintendo and they were offered an agreement to stop working on the emulator project, and while the agreement wasn’t confirmed yet, the organization has been entirely removed.

    C&Ds are generally just threats to take someone to court. They aren’t themselves enforceable.

    Even I can send C&Ds if I want but I don’t have anything to back them up with. Nintendo on the other hand absolutely does.

        So you wouldn’t comply with Nintendo in a similar position?

            Well, I for sure wouldn’t gamble my life for some emulator even if I lived in Brazil (Pretty sure it was Brazil).
