Development of the Yuzu Nintendo Switch emulator was halted permanently, but it will continue to live on thanks to new projects

    Most of these forks are going nowhere, Nuzu is run by an “almost 15” year old kid, probably trying to cash in on a Patreon he set up

    Edit: Suyu owner pirates games on reddit, yeah these aren’t serious efforts lol

    wow, they “killed” an open source project… did they really think it was that easy?

      Doubt it. Sume (pronounced sue-may) has little ring to it. Suyu sounds like “Nintendo will sue you”.

    Any word on a Citra replacement? I remember a while back I tried to look for an alternative just for compatibility for certain games and I couldn’t find much. It seemed like Citra was the only good option for actually playing games. When you add in that the 3DS is no longer sold or supported, plus the hardware gimmicks that led to most games being exclusive to that platform, and also the sheer discomfort my adult hands experience trying to hold such a small device, I’d really much rather play those games on the Deck or with a controller.

    The Switch is still young. It’s Nintendo’s active console so they’re dedicating more security and legal resources to protecting it, but I’m sure that will be reduced after the Switch 2 launches. RyuJinx is still a solid option, and when you add these various forks I’m sure emulation will be in a good spot in time.
