I mean, small developers who set up a money-making pateron based on an emulator for a currently sold system, without providing a way to pull your own system info or games from carts (and is therefore heavily reliant on piracy of things currently being sold by the parent company to run) is basically screwed, but this isn't news, and pretty much every other emu dev would run away screaming from such a setup.

They really put themselves in this boat, but since that money-making pateron is a thing, they're probably wiping those tears with dollar bills.
