This also includes ceasing development and destroying their copies of the code.

The GitHub repo page for Yuzu now returns a 404, as well. In addition, the repo for the Citra 3DS emulator was also taken down.

As of at least 23:30 UTC, Yuzu's website and Citra's website have been replaced with a statement about their discontinuation.

Nintendo got them alone in a dark room and told them that if they don't settle, admit and pay something they might be able to pay off in their lifetimes (Nintendo doesn't care about the money, 2.4 million is nothing to them), Nintendo would tie them up in legal battles for years, still making them broke and probably blocking them from doing something new.

Or something.

Fucking corporate shills. Why can't we just all have fun gaming. Piracy increases sales.

There's no way they would state that directly, or they would be labeled a vexatious litigant. They might have emphasized their desire to refuse future settlement offers if the first one wasn't taken, if you catch my drift.

Personally I think there's a direct indirectness in everything you say to a person when alone in a dark room.
