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

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

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

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

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’

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

Yinase Is Not A Switch Emulator.

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.

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

Ryujinx reached an agreement with Nintendo is the rumour.

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

tl;dr: It’s a Yuzu fork.
