True but I dare say it was quickly followed with an “or else”. We do know about Nintendo’s mafia, after all so only offering the nice hand feels very off.
Sort of. Nintendo’s lawyers showed up at the house of the lead dev and he nuked everything he had access to afterwards, which is all we really know, but unlike Yuzu there were no court filings or takedowns or anything. Forks of Ryujinx are still just up on Github.
Same thing that’s kept all the other emulators from being taken down: not being illegal.
What was illegal about ryujinx?
Nintendo decided it was. Nothing else, to my knowledge.
Nah, Nintendo decided to offer the dev money so he stops working on it.

it was less illegal and more the dev took money to quit it.
