Load of garbage. Xcode already includes emulators for iOS devices, and has done for years. Apple are simply trying to prevent third party emulation, for hardware which is still sold. A completely understandable move.

There is nothing wrong with third party emulation for hardware which is still sold, it's already settled case law.
Machines for running OS4 are still sold; that doesn't mean there is anything wrong with UAE emulating it. It's understandable that they only care about maximizing their own profit to the detriments of the rights of emulator users and developers. They have been anti-emulation since at least the A-Max days, except when it suits them. |

That's very different to having an official version of iOS running on non-Apple hardware. |

It's either about the security of iOS or licence of the ROM they use being used not in a single instance but many at once https://techcrunch.com/2019/08/15/ap...ing-corellium/ Last edited by lilalurl; 30 August 2019 at 15:06. |

Fortunately Apple did not prevail (https://9to5mac.com/2023/12/15/apple...settled-again/) but now Nintendo is trying to do much the same thing...is there no depth these companies will not sink to!?
https://s3.documentcloud.org/documen...u-emulator.pdf https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2024/...emulator-yuzu/ I can see Cloanto trying to ban non-AF use of Amiga emulators if Nintendo actually succeed with this. The legality of emulation has been well-established but you never know which way a court is going to rule these days. Last edited by Minuous; 29 February 2024 at 16:48. |

Yeah, it's pretty sad. Big N should stick to making great hard/software, not trying to shut down every project that relates to their stuff.
Some say it's because Yuzu people have a very profitable Patreon, but I think it's just because it's very popular and so bigwigs at Nintendo can't sleep at night unless even a remote possibility of losing a $ is exorcised. |

Nintendo are ridiculous in this situation, blaming and trying to sue others when the issue is in their own backyard and their own fault the game was leaked!
Trying to blame an emulator for loss of profit is like trying to sue a memory stick company because movies are illegally downloaded and watched on them! Idiots! |

Apple have been struck by the apple-corer since their inception. Apple products are such a hollow promise imho. Yes I have an ipod and a few classic macs. We used them back at school too. Most of the women I know have Iphones like a supreme pizza for them.
On copyright, it is illegal to download copyrighted software (lifespan 50 yrs) even if you own a copy already. That's hard-line and I think the property rights follow suit and downloads never really transfer title but remain with the developer. |

They're claiming much more than that, see the court briefing I linked to above. Eg. that any kind of backup or format shifting is illegal. Ie. even running a game that was sold as being "for A500/A1000/A2000" on an A600 would fall afoul of this, as it is "unauthorized hardware" for these games.

That said, I'd rather wear an eyepatch than follow these types of legalese speakers. While we're at it we can revoke the 16th amendment to the U.S. constitution. No more income tax! |

Yuzu settles and will stop to exist:

Kinda good news for emulation in general though as there will be no precedent. |

Aaron Giles (creator of the DREAMM LucasArts emulator and former LucasArts employee) wrote an interesting comment about the Yuzu settlement:

Weird thing about all this is their use of TOTK in their arguments when at the time of its release TOTK didnt work on Yuzu at all. It DID work on Ryujinx, but not Yuzu.
Generally this would seem a little pedantic, but seeing as TOTK was specifically mentioned by Nintendo as a point against Yuzu it seems to be something that should have been corrected somewhere along the line by someone. |

I hope the EU takes some firm action on this, they need to be put out of business. |
