Literally no one on Twitter understands how anything works. Everyone in the quote replies is posting gifs saying Yuzu is gonna dunk on Nintendo, they're gonna show Nintendo who's boss, they're gonna this, they're gonna that... and I'm fucking losing my mind.

Of course I want Yuzu to win. Of course Nintendo wants to ends emulation and that's bad. But come the fuck on. Be realistic. This is not Google vs. Epic or even David vs. Goliath. This is like... the asteroid vs the dinosaurs. The only hope for Yuzu (and emulation) is that this asteroid misses the Earth, i.e., over the next 60 days, Nintendo somehow reaches a deal with the company and this doesn't go to court.

Because if it does, then I will get no enjoyment from being the one telling the geniuses on Twitter, "I told you so."

This isn't Google vs. A mcdonalds employee either

They get 330k a year on patreon and hired a lawyer

Having infinite money only gets you so far in law

I'd give this more of a 50/50 chance than a 0

Here you go, man.

Yuzu agrees to pay $2.4 million. Furthermore, it is ordered to be shut down, and its employees are prohibited from working in a similar capacity for any other emulator, too.

Yeah I think it's sad but they just settled

I think they could've won

You hoped for this btw
