"NEW: Nintendo is suing the creators of popular Switch emulator Yuzu, saying their tech illegally circumvents Nintendo's software encryption and facilitates piracy. Seeks damages for alleged violations and a shutdown of the emulator.

Notes 1 million copies of Tears of the Kingdom downloaded prior to game's release; says Yuzu's Patreon support doubled during that time. Basically arguing that that is proof that Yuzu's business model helps piracy flourish."

OP of the comment I replied to explained nothing. So I don't know what you're talking about, unless you're just making stuff up. Their comment was nothing but pure rage, and it got a lot of support, much of which couldn't explain their rage either.

Edit: I see a comment above mine, but when I made my reply there were no other comments. Same time.

If you have more than a couple of neurons you don't need me to explain why I hate Nintendo, unless you're a corporate bootlicker who thinks Nintendo can do no wrong. If you really can't fathom why anyone would hate them, then all you gotta do is Google "Nintendo anticonsumer" and you'll have reading material for the whole week.
