The Ryujinx emulator, a popular tool for emulating Nintendo Switch games on PCs, has been taken down following a request from Nintendo. This action is part of Nintendo’s broader crackdown on emulation and homebrew communities, particularly as the company seeks to protect its intellectual property and revenue streams.

I wasn't saying emulating is a bad thing. I was saying THIS community may not be the right place hor THIS particular piece of news.

Now if they shut down an SNES emulator, then I'd see why it's here.

Also, it just occured to me that Wii might be considered retro.......god I feel old.
