Anything that releases in the last year or two of the Switch's life is now at risk of being lost forever into Nintendo's archives.

Somebody will archive it, for two reasons: 1) data hoarders and 2) hacked Switches.

Sure, it will be as playable as it is right now, right as the project shuts down. Any updates or improvements? Any new games? Only if someone else takes up the mantle and risks having world police nintendo suing them

I assume emulator development will continue eventually. Who knows when that will be, though.

The thing that sucks is that I'm in the middle of a couple of games, so if something upgrades and Ryujinx isn't compatible, I'm hosed.
