This also includes ceasing development and destroying their copies of the code.

The GitHub repo page for Yuzu now returns a 404, as well. In addition, the repo for the Citra 3DS emulator was also taken down.

As of at least 23:30 UTC, Yuzu's website and Citra's website have been replaced with a statement about their discontinuation.

Can't blame them but at the same time, yeah kind of sad they folded as easily as a Nintendo DS.

I will say Nintendo can count on me, a older game with disposable income and kids, not buying a switch 2 with they way they've been acting with all of their lawsuit and anti-consumer practices.

Logging in to cancel my switch online right now. I was using YUZU to play games I bought from them, in some cases even more than once. F Nintendo. I won't be buying a Switch 2.

Better yet, since their hate on piracy is so big, buy HACKED switch 2 when it'll be available and pirate the fuck out of them

Just get a Steam Deck and be able to play Computer games too!

I honestly wish there a would be steam deck with size of psvita, the size is only problem, steam deck is better in everything but size

GPD sells a PSP Go shaped computer, which, if the Steam Deck didnt exist, was probably going to be the computer I would have ended up owning, but Valve's version of Linux and its control mapping is PHENOMENAL, so I dont know how it'd compare in that sense

Edit: According to this video the GPD Win 4 works pretty amazingly with Steams OS, so it seems like a valid option

Yeah that was good, but price, and psvita had sensor controls as steam deck but gpd didn't, yet i always wanted to have "gpd max" umpc since it's versatile

Somebody would have most likely bought a switch 2 to hack it, so that's still money in nintendos hand either way, plus free marketing/advertisement of nintendo IP. Fuck 'em.
