At this point I’m very concerned about the open source industry relying so much on github. You have to remember that any project there can be swept away overnight because it doesn’t fit into the agenca of a large company, for example.

    This is clearly bad press, everyone reading this gets negative thoughts about Nintendo. We are all talking about how bad they are RIGHT NOW.

    Nintendo would absolutely lose that legal battle. It’s well established that emulation is not a crime and nor is the development of emulators.

      You already had negative thoughts about nintendo…so does that count? Most people won’t even see this…so I don’t think it’s much bad press.

      As for legal battles…being sued is not really about committing crimes…you can lose legal battles while not doing anything illegal. I think Nintendo would likely win from simply pushing the devs into bankruptcy…
