They very brazenly operated like they were challenging Nintendo.

This claim has the same vibe as "stand your ground" assaults.

For me I'm mad at them.

And victim blaming??

No he's right, Yuzu's Devs were openly encouraging piracy. It was all over their discord.

That's why they settled so quickly, they were fucked otherwise.

Source? Is there proof to the claim? I didn't see it, but I wasnt on the discord. Heck I didn't even see it in the settlement info. Not saying its not possible, I just dont trust nonsourced claims.

I don't know why you're getting down voted, it's completely reasonable to ask for sources.

Here's an example, look at the tweet referenced which shows an except from the legal filing: https://twitter.com/gamr12/status/1765098920521461869

Essentially, the Devs were writing articles and posting messages about games working before they were officially released. As in, before people have legal means to purchase them.

You might argue that it's not uncommon for people to get pre orders early, sure, but this is clearly pushing it.

Oh no, piracy in emulation. How unique.
