But how did he changed from copyleft licence to stricter? Isn't it already vialenced copyleft licence?

The dev did develop most things himself so they have the copyright and can relicense freely. Also, they've asked other major contributors whether they agree with him relicensing their code, which they were seemingly okay with. Small contributions aren't copyrightable anyway, and/or the dev likely has rewritten them already.

Yes, making a fork from the newest version that allows it would be the way to go. I am quite unfamiliat with PS1 emulation but perhaps there are others anyway?

Open source freedom means that the author can have crazy license, and we can just not use it or look for alternatives
