I wonder when the Switch emulator titled "YASE" (literally "Yet Another Switch Emulator") will show up and bring back an old tradition.

[–] Tattorack 12 points 4 weeks ago

Yinase Is Not A Switch Emulator.

Even more confusing considering Citra is a well-known 3DS emulator, so you'd think that's a fork of that

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 month ago

in fact it’s where most of the yuzu devs come from. they forked their infrastructure and GUI from citra

see also https://citra-emu.org/

Yuzu is also a citrus fruit, so it at least makes sense.

Isn't the joke of the Portable Nintendo emulators, that their names are fruits? Citra -> Yuzu -> MelonDS

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 weeks ago

I think that joke started with Citra because 3DS model numbers started with "CTR"

From what I saw, they're doing some changes to improve shader recompilation Maybe too early, but seems this time they might actually do something to improve the codebase instead of 'yet another renamed yuzu'

Awesome! I really like Yuzu.

At least this one isnt hosted on Github, so assume its more difficult for them to take this one down(?)

So as far as I can tell the idea here is to just continuously piss off Nintendo forever with a never-ending game of whack-a-mole?

Frankly I wish I had the peogramming accumen to automate clones anonymously.

It doesn't need to be anything complicated. If you just re-upload the original code to a new location, and then Nintendo has to start the entire process of tracking the uploader down in order to threaten them.

Ironically for a video games company Nintendo don't really seem to quite understand how the modern world works.

That's nothing new.

I hope this one will get less attention or at least do « everything right ». No promoting hacking, no vending stuff and all, so that it stays alive despite any Nintendo attempts to kill it.

[–] Tattorack 11 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Well... Ryujinx didn't do any of that (as far as I'm aware) and they still got lynched.

[–] dai 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Ryujinx reached an agreement with Nintendo is the rumour.

[–] Tattorack 2 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Yeah, even if the rumours are true, I'd consider Ryujinx as good as dead.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Right don't use your main GitHub accounts ffs

[–] AkatsukiLevi 1 points 4 weeks ago

That isn't even being hosted on github

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

I’m hoping that at least one of them grows in development once the Switch 2 and its games arrived.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 weeks ago

I'm waiting for one with a fun name like Switchsticle
