I wonder what they'll do with shiny hunting

Sandwiches were neat in S/V

Liked it better than in Legends Arceus

One thing tho i have ptsd from shiny hunting an alpha shiny zoroark for like... way too long

And then after i got it they made a new patch which made them easier to get

I was annoyed af

[barren pewter]

"skill issue"

[maiden tulip]

rng issue

[barren pewter]

it is your lack of skill in coping with RNG, knowing full well how rare what you were after was

[feral ferry]

You peeps play completionist?

[barren pewter]

nope
I have things to do with my life

[feral ferry]

I always love inventing little sidequests, but shiny hunting is too much of a time waster

[barren pewter]

I think the only game I've 100%ed was fallout 4

[maiden tulip]

Yeah i 100%

[feral ferry]

Person of culture

[barren pewter]

and none of those achievements are hard to get

[feral ferry]

@barren pewter I just saw something... cursed

[barren pewter]

perhaps time consuming
but most of em you'll just get by completing quests

[feral ferry]

And I can't unsee it

Please help

[maiden tulip]

Pokemon games are like the only games i full on 100%

@feral ferry if you want we can trade for dex completion if you're still around when the game releases

Unless you dislike trading but i find trading fun

[feral ferry]

I prolly won't be able to even trade cause I will always just homebrew my Switch

I hope Switch 2 has a security exploit

[maiden tulip]

Get more than one

xd

[feral ferry]

I have two Switch 1s

Cracked and normal

Normal sees little usage

[maiden tulip]

I havent dabbled into switch homebrewing

I do have the lets go edition which i know is old enough

[feral ferry]

Let's Go is likely software crackable

So, no need for modchips

[maiden tulip]

Yeah ik

Talking about homebrew

Modded 3ds is the goat

[feral ferry]

There are homebrew guides

[barren pewter]

the only one I struggled with was simply "Sugared Up"
and that's just killing 40 nuka world creatures under the effects of a nuka mix

[feral ferry]

Unless you are really dented, there's virtually no chance you'll fuck up a homebrew

[maiden tulip]

I play online with nico at times tho and don't feel like getting my console banned

[feral ferry]

Then don't crack it

[maiden tulip]

I thought about picking up an oled at some point

And cracking my og

[feral ferry]

Seems like a waste of money since Switch 2 isn't ways off

[maiden tulip]

Exactly

I'll prob grab one eventually on clearance

Then have fun modding

[still spire]

If you enjoy modern pokemon, you have no self-respect and are a furry

[maiden tulip]

With the 3ds i had gotten myself a pikachu ddition new xl and had jailbroken my og

[still spire]

So vex is a furry

[maiden tulip]

I'm a furry with no self respect but you knew that already

[still spire]

See it checks our

[maiden tulip]

@feral ferry omg we're twinzies

[still spire]

[barren pewter]

🤢

Vexxsie...I thought you were better than that

[feral ferry]

Die

[maiden tulip]

OWO

[feral ferry]

Couldn't care less, old fart

I always wanted open world Pokemon, and the new ones are great

[maiden tulip]

Agreed

Mkil is just a boomer

That hates people having fun

[still spire]

Twinsies indeed

[feral ferry]

Why is the way you are writing that making me think of Gollum

Piss off

[maiden tulip]

No vex has been converted

Vex is a furry now

milk boy said so

Vex is my cat confirmed

[still spire]

Great

No more cancer in steam workshop

Meh, VPNers will still be annoying

[rancid hearth]

There goes a good chunk of cs's playerbase

[feral ferry]

Games aren't affected

Sadly

[rancid hearth]

Interesting

[still spire]

But the majority of Russia's income is from Russian scammers on Steam

This will kill their economy

I guess you'll have to do like Venezuela and starting on RuneScape

[trim rock]

Good riddance

[barren pewter]

as if everything else hasn't already

[still spire]

Lol

[barren pewter]

turns out putting most of your most capable workers into a warzone and scaring away all the educated ones is really fucking bad for an economy

ah yes...not to make fun and enjoyable games, just games with hot woman in them...

What are you yapping about

Afraid of attractive characters? Go outside

[feral ferry]

@barren pewterDo you care about Dragon's Dogma 2?

Seems demo is dropping on Friday

[barren pewter]

I have no clue as to what that is

[feral ferry]

Disappointing

I expected more from you

NEW: Nintendo is suing the creators of popular Switch emulator Yuzu, saying their tech illegally circumvents Nintendo's software encryption and facilitates piracy.
Seeks damages for alleged violations and a shutdown of the emulator.

Twitter · Feb 27, 2024, 8:31 PM

Well that's not happening

Yuzu just doesn't facilitate piracy lol, fuck yourself assholes

Legally they just don't have a case

It's not sold, it doesn't give you software keys

[nimble current]

looking forward seeing them waste time and money then

time that could be put on releasing actually polished games

and developing a new goddamn switch

[feral ferry]

Well let's be frank, this is the legal division

And prolly some execs

Games or hardware aren't impacted

[nimble current]

probably the most well funded division at nintendo these days

[feral ferry]

They forget to mention the part you have to own your own Switch

I guess I'll download the latest version of Yuzu just in case

Ryujinx doesn't seem to have been impacted

Holy moly Yuzu is making racks, 40k per month on Patreon

They can defo afford a legal battle

[trim rock]

I LOVE NINTENDO

[drifting rose]

why?

[trim rock]

I hope they show those pesky pirates whose boss!

[feral ferry]

Bad bait

[drifting rose]

pirates = TERRORISTS

[maiden tulip]

@feral ferry I like emulation but idk i always feel iffy about emulators existing during a console's shelf life

[feral ferry]

Not illegal

[maiden tulip]

I know

I just find it morally iffy because lets face it, most who will use it will not own the console

[feral ferry]

You have to own it to use it

Not illegal

Or you can just commit piracy but that's not Yuzu's fault, they don't give you the tools for it

Homebrew isn't illegal either as long as the tools to load pirated games aren't coming preinstalled

[maiden tulip]

I know

But some people sadly circumvent all of this

There's a pretty big piracy community surrounding yuzu and i know people who don't own a switch and have used it to play games

It sucks because at the end of yhe day it penalizes legitimate owners who just want to keep their game library on their pc

[feral ferry]

Ok, and there are also hundreds of thousands of homebrewed Erista switches

[maiden tulip]

Or play their games in a different way

I'm not saying yuzu shouldn't exist

Making that clear

[feral ferry]

Homebrew is known to also attract mostly pirates, does that make it illegal? No

And that's all that matters

Nintendo does not have a case

[maiden tulip]

I know

I'm not saying they do

[feral ferry]

Case closed

[maiden tulip]

I'm just saying how it sucks how people use emulators like yuzu for piracy

Gives emulation a bad rap

When it's a great tool

[feral ferry]

If emulators exist all of them will be used for piracy?

Yuzu isn't a one off case

It just so happens to emulate one of the most popular consoles that exists right now and is alive

And they do it in a far cleaner way than Dolphin did, Nintendo legally has no case

[fading spade]

Yuzu don't even provide the firmware and keys like dolphin does

[maiden tulip]

Are you reading what im saying

Im not arguing against emulation

[tall anchor]

no

[maiden tulip]

Or about if nintendo has a case or not

[feral ferry]

You don't really make much sense tbf

[maiden tulip]

I'm just saying it sucks that shitty people ruin things for honest people who want to use emulators legitimately

[feral ferry]

"people use emulators like yuzu for piracy"

[maiden tulip]

Same with homebrewing

[feral ferry]

Well yes, they use all emulators for piracy

That's how that works

And all homebrews lead to piracy

Don't even need a homebrew to crack Denuvo or SteamDRM

[maiden tulip]

Like i love emulation and i love modding my consoles my modded 3ds is an amazing little machinr

[feral ferry]

This is just Nintendo trying to be intimidating, and I sincerely hope they get their asses kicked and emulation wins

[drifting rose]

there is a huge number of people who can't afford a switch + games, not everyone pirates because they're dicks

[maiden tulip]

If you can't afford it don't play it

[feral ferry]

If Nintendo does go to court and lose = emulation will have a way stronger legal footing

So in a way this is a good thing

[maiden tulip]

I don't go shoplift a physical copy if im broke

Pirating it is essentially the same

[hardy merlin]

owo? Emulation?

[maiden tulip]

I understand if a game is innacessible in a region

[feral ferry]

Yuzu is getting sued

[maiden tulip]

Or for translation mod roms

[feral ferry]

By the one and only

Wrong tag, @hardy merlin

[maiden tulip]

But piracy i've always thought it was iffy

[drifting rose]

wrong, stealing a physical copy means it's gone, playing a cracked game or emulating does not mean there are any fewer copies in circulation

[maiden tulip]

That is the most braindead argument to justify piracy i've heard in a while

Mental gymnastics

[feral ferry]

"Braindead", there you go again

[hardy merlin]

Of course big corporations want you to think piracy is stealing, which is not
It's copyright infringement, nothing more

[drifting rose]

not really, you compared it to shoplifting which it isn't

[feral ferry]

If it doesn't exist, it's not stealing

[maiden tulip]

Just saying I've never been confortable with the concept unless it's something I own a copy for

[drifting rose]

your choice

[hardy merlin]

Also Yuzu lawsuit doesn't make sense
You can't decrypt their games with Yuzu, you have to own modified console to do so

[maiden tulip]

It feels like stealing to me, all work should be compensated

[feral ferry]

I was going to say this initially but I didn't want to say it, and tried to stop you before it

It doesn't really matter here how you feel about emulation and piracy

[maiden tulip]

But hey everyone has different views on it

[feral ferry]

Nintendo doesn't have a legal case, they will lose

[maiden tulip]

I do hope yuzu wins

[feral ferry]

Now pile on Nintendo

[maiden tulip]

It's a dick move on their end

Emulation means game preservation

[hardy merlin]

Wait, what about Ryujinx then?

[feral ferry]

Not sued yet

[drifting rose]

oh nintendo going after people who are doing nothing illegal again?
better give them more money

[feral ferry]

Prolly trying to make an example

Which is funny cause Yuzu aren't poor, they get 40k monthly off Patreon

They will fight and ironically? Nintendo just lost a major battle here

The whole emulation thing is legally grey area

If Yuzu wins, emulation has a new legal ground to justify its existence

[maiden tulip]

Technically there is a previous ruling on it

[feral ferry]

20+ years old, doesn't matter

[maiden tulip]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Computer_Entertainment,_Inc._v._Connectix_Corp.#:~:text=Sony Computer Entertainment v.,is covered by fair use.

[feral ferry]

New tech, new circumstances

[maiden tulip]

True just pointing out the grey area in which emulation stands

[feral ferry]

If Nintendo gets their asses handed to them by one of the most clean emus out there, oh god it will be a day to behold

[maiden tulip]

Not much legal precedent besides this

[hardy merlin]

Eh, emulation should be fully legal
Only matter that you own legitimate copy of software, as for on what hardware you launch it, it shouldn't matter

[nimble current]

https://www.theverge.com/2024/2/27/24084494/sony-playstation-layoffs-2024

welp

[feral ferry]

Which is funny cause Yuzu requires you to own 3 personal copies of: Software, Hardware, and games

None of those are distributed by them

All of em have to be, in a normal scenario, taken off a personal Switch

Dolphin bypassed the keys part and I think also a software image, you only needed a game file

Yuzu don't work without hardware keys, system copy or a game dump

Nintendo isn't winning this one

[hardy merlin]

I mean technically it can pull firmware from cartridge image, but yeah, as far as Yuzu is concerned, you need a Switch and legit game to play it on emulator

[small comet]

last i checked you can just download all of those and yuzu doesnt check you dumped it from your systems

idk if you can condense it to it doesnt distribute them so its clean

[feral ferry]

Switch doesn't check if you are trying to homebrew and somehow actively prevent that either?

That's not a legal precedent

[hardy merlin]

Sure, you just need keys.txt, nsp/xci file and can go to town
But it's not up to Yuzu to check if the software is legitimate

[small comet]

im just saying depending on how the lawyers and court go about this it can still end bad

[maiden tulip]

Technically nintendo could just sue the users instead

[small comet]

this isnt some easily ended court matter

[feral ferry]

That will lead nowhere

[maiden tulip]

Honestly i think it'd be better that way

[hardy merlin]

Yeah... Especially with fleet of specialized Nintendo lawyers...

[maiden tulip]

Just feels bad as someone who uses emulation legitimately

[feral ferry]

Yeah right Nintendo will open up millions of legal cases each with its own lawyer to it just for individuals to declare bankruptcy and Nintendo gains nothing

[maiden tulip]

It wouldn't be a problem if people were honest

But people suck

[small comet]

also nintendo never sued dolphin did they

despite them having the encryption key in sourcecode

on the web

[feral ferry]

I don't remember how that whole Steam/Dolphin thing ended

[hardy merlin]

afaik they never sued any emulator

[small comet]

just a DMCA

nothing else

[maiden tulip]

Nintendo asked steam to take it down

[small comet]

i thought nintendo took part in the sony v connectix thing

[maiden tulip]

Does dolphin make money on patreon?

[feral ferry]

Dolphin seems to have new builds coming in so I guess Nintendoninjas didn't do shit to it

[maiden tulip]

Maybe that's what upset them

[small comet]

no but they still distribute a forbidden number in form of nintendos encryption key

[feral ferry]

That... doesn't mean anything

[hardy merlin]

Oh yeah, Nintendo and Sega

[maiden tulip]

Makes nintendo more likely to be angru

[feral ferry]

Dolphin is legally in a worse area than Yuzu or Ryujinx cause of the whole lack of need for encryption keys

[maiden tulip]

Since they can try to argue that they profit out of it

[feral ferry]

As if that matters

[feral ferry]

That's.. not how that works

[maiden tulip]

Vex i know it doesn't matter

[feral ferry]

Crowdfunding is not legally considered as selling a product

[maiden tulip]

I'm just saying it may explain why they targeted yuzu instead of dolphin

[hardy merlin]

And besides, Dolphin is fully free and open-sourced

[maiden tulip]

They got pissy

About money

[small comet]

depends on how nintendo sees it. for them the wii doesnt make any money anymore and even official wiis cant go online anymore

let alone gamecubes

[feral ferry]

They could have went after Ryujinx and had a far easier time

Ryu is pretty similar to Yuzu in how it works

But has far less of a following

Why Nintendo decided to attack Yuzu who actually have money is weird

[small comet]

either way we can all speculate all we want. at the end of the day we will only know when the court ruled one way or another

[feral ferry]

Just being petty assholes

[barren pewter]

so...played DL2

...then went back to DL1...

why does DL2...not suck
but it is mediocre

😐

[feral ferry]

DL2 is really mid

DL1 is pretty fun though

[barren pewter]

yeah...no kidding

[maiden tulip]

Dl1 best

Dl2 bland boring

[barren pewter]

DL1 is still one of the best "zombie" games I've played to date

even the DI and DI:R matchup doesn't best it

[feral ferry]

They could just port DL2's parkour to DL1 and call it DL3

DL2's story sucked ass

[maiden tulip]

Also the dlc for dl1

The following was good

[barren pewter]

no spoilers

I still haven't played through the following

[maiden tulip]

do it

worth it

[feral ferry]

Everyone dies!

[barren pewter]

...what do you think I'm doing?

[feral ferry]

If they aren't dead already

Idk I haven't played it either

[maiden tulip]

Do you think i can read your mind

[barren pewter]

nope
and frankly, I don't want you to ever do so

[maiden tulip]

Question

[barren pewter]

the last thing I need is more restraining orders, or to be charged with "thought crime"

[maiden tulip]

Why get a 4080 super if you never play anything particularly recent

[feral ferry]

Bragging rights

Soft brain

[hardy merlin]

For Minecraft of course

[maiden tulip]

• you play it at 1080p

144hz

[feral ferry]

Minecraft with RTX isn't easy

Need top end cards

[maiden tulip]

I just find the decision not to wait longer strange

[barren pewter]

I played DL2
Cyberpunk with the RT
Minecraft with RT as Calslock says
and STALKER 2 on the horizon

when stalker 2 comes out, I'll spend every free moment of my life playing that game for the first couple months

👍

[hardy merlin]

Same

[barren pewter]

and for that
a solid GPU would be nice

[maiden tulip]

You played stalker 2 when it's not out

?_?

[barren pewter]

I'm so glad you can piece together the whole puzzle

[maiden tulip]

I'm super skeptical about stalker

I don't think it will be good

Been in dev hell too long

[barren pewter]

...I'm expecting it to run as well as the previous three

flawlessly

[maiden tulip]

I just think the game will suck

[barren pewter]

whatever you say pumpkin
back to cleaning the bathroom with you

[maiden tulip]

A few years ago i was hyped

After years if dev hell... idk

[maiden tulip]

The fuck did you eat

Cheese again?

[barren pewter]

I haven't actually eaten anything today

yesterday...just some grilled veggies

I have some smoked fish in fridge
probably going to just eat that and drink vodka later

[maiden tulip]

i had scrambled eggs

With cheese and hot sauce

[hardy merlin]

Ow...
Now I want some smoked mackerel

[barren pewter]

I got smoked salmon...

very oily and silky sockeye

[barren pewter]

...omg that's a blast from the past

[maiden tulip]

fish are meant to stay in the water

Not be eaten

Eat like beef or chicken or pork

[barren pewter]

I haven't had mackerel in YEARS
and my workplace consistently stocks spanish mackarel

[maiden tulip]

Or lamb

Ir another land animal

Or sky animal

[fading spade]

WTF GAME DID I JUST FIND LOL THIS IS CURSED https://youtu.be/aIQxI7EsSbk

[maiden tulip]

Those are good

[barren pewter]

actually braindented take

[hardy merlin]

If they're not meant to be eaten then why they're so damn tasty?

[lament ledge]

[feral ferry]

I love sushi

[barren pewter]

tried that
it got boring
also think I got prions or something idk
not an organic mechanic

[barren pewter]

I actually have some bacon wrapped scallops in the freezer
figure it'll be an easier way for you to eat seafood than a cod fillet or something of the sort

just kidding
ALL MINE

I think there's a rotten onion in the garden from last year's harvest
all yours

Lawsuit docs @feral ferry
https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/24444407/nintendo-sues-yuzu-emulator.pdf

[fading spade]

Yuzu will be fine, right??

Nintendo don't have shit they can do legally I think

Yuzu are following all the legalities

[rancid hearth]

chances are yuzu would win, there's quite a bit of case law and yuzu doesn't have any property of nintendo out of the box

[dreamy rain]

You guys seen the stars wars game coming in march 14

The spilt screen is one of the main reasons ima get it

[fading spade]

Split screen in 2024?????

FUCK YEAH!!!

[dreamy rain]

Literally

[fading spade]

Ooooo
I wonder if you set the game resolution to fill both displays
Then would each player in split screen have their own display????

That would be amazing

Cause if the game splits horizontally down the middle
Aka
Better both monitors
Then that would mean it would work right??

[proper basin]

Inb4 “so retro”

[dreamy rain]

Hopefully it works like this aswell

In the trailer it showed the split screen as duel up and down only

[maiden tulip]

Technjcally yes yuzu is in the clear

[fading spade]

But going by Nintendo logic
They are fucked

[maiden tulip]

copy of prod.keys (that ordinarily are secured on the Nintendo Switch). Users obtain the prod.keys either through unlawful websites or by unlawfully hacking a Nintendo Switch console. The lead developer of Yuzu—known online under the alias “Bunnei”—has publicly acknowledged most users pirate prod.keys and games online, and Yuzu’s website provides instructions for its users telling them how to unlawfully hack their own Nintendo Switch and how to make unauthorized copies of Nintendo games and unlawfully obtain prod.keys. Only because Yuzu decrypts a Nintendo Switch game file dynamically during operation can the game be played in Yuzu. In other words, without Yuzu’s decryption of Nintendo’s encryption, unauthorized copies of games could not be played on PCs or Android devices.

Here is nintendo's argument basically

If you don't want to read through the thing

[fading spade]

Hmm
Maybe yuzu are fucked then

[grizzled quarry]

Yeah sounds like they might be fucked lol

[fading spade]

The court jury are gonna hear "unlawfully hack" and side with Nintendo

Cause they are all old boomers and don't understand tech speak

[maiden tulip]

Also

Patreon profits spiking and TOTK being dled 1 million times before the game released

All being simultaneous

[fading spade]

Yuzu is open source
It'll be forked

[maiden tulip]

Nintendo is trying to argue that yuzu profited from piracy

Essentially

[fading spade]

Yeah
It's pretty garbage of yuzu forcing people to pay for beta builds despite them being available for free on the GitHub

Can't use them unless you enter a code you get from paying for it though

[maiden tulip]

@fading spade also came across this

The way i see it the patreon is what landed them in hot water and is why nintendo is singling them out

[fading spade]

I wish Ryujinx wasn't so fucking good awful to get working

I have never yet managed to launch a game on it

[maiden tulip]

Haven't bothered with switch emulation as well

[fading spade]

Errors and shit even though I have the firmware and keys supposedly in the correct file location

[maiden tulip]

I have a switch

And idk i dont see the point of not using it xd

[rancid hearth]

Ryujinx has always performed worse for me, if it even works at all

[fading spade]

Yeah that too ..

I only care about emulating mariokart though

Does that work on ryu?

[maiden tulip]

@fading spade why mario kart in particular

[fading spade]

It's the only Nintendo game series I really care much about
Other than the 2d Mario platformers

[proper basin]

Me patiently waiting for paper mario the thousand year door remake

[fading spade]

Ikr.... Plz

It will complete my duality of mario rpg and ttyd

Id only ask for mario & luigi remakes at this point

[fading spade]

Also
Modding mariokart on yuzu is a few click process
Got a lot of custom tracks and character models installed

[proper basin]

Remaked superstar saga, bowsers inside story, partners in time, and dream team would be so great

[fading spade]

Is there a mod to make the camera less rigid to the player viewport?

The game makes the camera basically force your character to always be dead center in the screen even when going over bends and antigravity inversions

It's really awful

[maiden tulip]

I never really had an issue with the camera in the og game

[fading spade]

I'm not the only one...

[maiden tulip]

Both wii u and switch version

[fading spade]

The camera in mariokart wii can lag behind a little as if reacting to the motion of your vehicle

Which is more realistic and less motion sickness inducing

[proper basin]

Yeah i dont think ive seen anything about changing mk8 camera

I know what you mean though i always thought it hugged the center way too close

[fading spade]

Yeah it does :/

[proper basin]

Like it feels too close to the characters, its kinda awkward compared to wii and ds mk7

[fading spade]

I wish it worked the same way that the camera in Distance worked

[still spire]

Neat

[fading spade]

I love Distance 💜
Best racing game

[proper basin]

Yeah, it makes it more dynamic, very satisfying

Like I would not be comfortable playing mk8 unless im like super far away from the screen lol

[fading spade]

The only camera mods I found on game banana are freecam, first person and a mod that makes the viewport constantly spin for some reason

.-.

First person sounds fun though xd

[proper basin]

:/ underwhelming choices

Custom modified camera would be a nice mod to just adjust yourself

[fading spade]

Idk how to code mods for games ;_;

[still spire]

@still spire i could justify the price tag for the battlefront collection

But the dark forces remake

Idk

[still spire]

Wait I had heard ir was 29.99

[maiden tulip]

I hope the price will be less on steam as well i wanted to play it on steam deck

[still spire]

Which was already too expensive

I'd pay 20$

tops

[maiden tulip]

Same

[still spire]

SS Remake was 39.99

A full remake

Same studio

[maiden tulip]

19.99 would be reasonable

Let me check ss remake on steam

Also is it any good?

I remember playing SS... a long time ago

I had gotten a free key on GOG

As a gift

54.99 cad

[still spire]

It's alright

Hell wait

Helldivers 2 is 40$

😛

This here is 1$ less of a 20+ year old game

[maiden tulip]

Damn

Crazy

[still spire]

Close to 30

Sure they did a good remaster - if you don't have a 60HZ monitor

But way too pricey, even at 30$.

[maiden tulip]

Helldivers is 49.99 cad normally

But i got it for 40 cad on greenman

greenmangaming is the goat tbh

I buy almost everything from there when possible

[still spire]

I buy wherever is cheapest, generally

[maiden tulip]

I changed me region to us

30$ usd

39 cad

I guess it works out

XD

[still spire]

Even so

Nightdives previous remasters were free to owners of the original

Star Wars license is expensive

So this time not free, but maybe if we got a Discountr

[maiden tulip]

I played dark forces years ago on a ps1 i had bought at a garage sale for 10$ with a massive box of games @still spire

Lol

[still spire]

Weirdo

Playing a FPS on a console

[maiden tulip]

Never had a ps1 growing up

First home console was an N64 then i got a gamecube and eventually after annoying my dad by begging him to let me play halo on his pc i got an og xbox

I only got into pc gaming when i was like

Whenever the 3770k released

2012?

Another thing is I used to play more on handhelds back then

i mean for most of my life i played on handhelds i just love them

Particularly nintendo handhelds cuz well

Pokemon

I'll admit my obsession

Plushies, merch, tcg, games,...

Like I wish I had more space to put plushies because well I love pokemon

And no space means no buying new plushies

Because no where to display them

[still spire]

What about Nicos room?

[maiden tulip]

you mean OUR bedroom

[still spire]

Does he not have a man cave?

Or furry cave I dunno

[maiden tulip]

No

We have an office room where we have our gaming setups

🤔 i could put up a shelf

idk i don't want the room to feel cramped

[still spire]

Have you thought about taking out the walls, floor, and ceiling? More room.

[maiden tulip]

Great idea

@still spire

nico once showed me this and i felt called out

[still spire]

You should

[maiden tulip]

[still spire]

What if they come to life at night and kill you?

[maiden tulip]

Shit, Exterminator is expensive. Looks badass tho

Probably go for it, I mean you look like a Dark Trooper or something

[hardy merlin]

So, in short, Nintendo gets all butthurt because Yuzu can decrypt a file... with provided key?

[still spire]

I tried to play HD2 with a controller cause of Streaming to a TV so my cousin could play on my laptop and we could do a LAN party, but boy it was too hard.

LIke I was utterly useless even on difficulty 4 😛

[fading spade]

Yep!!!
Well, with a key the user must provide, for legal reasons
In which Yuzu encourage dumping it from your actual Switch

[still spire]

For some reason HD2 does not play nice with moonlight / sunlight streaming

It stops mouses and keyboards from working and also has weird ass slowdowns none of my other games had

Cannot recommend HD2 with a controller. Just awful 😛

To throw a grenade you need to press 4 buttons lmao

[nimble current]

any game requiring manual aim of any sort kinda sucks on a controller

[hardy merlin]

To which I have full rights, even if I were in US, DMCA allows for bypassing DRM for emulation purposes, that's basically what it is

[still spire]

Ytrue

It also doesn't have auto aim

None at all

[nimble current]

oof

rip playstation players

[still spire]

PS5 players...I can't even imagine how they do higher tier difficulties

Like on PC I can 2 shot a charger with a railgun, on a controller such a feat would be way more difficult, nigh impossible I feel 😛

[fading spade]

Yep, and Nintendo are like "NoOOooOOooOO, YoU OnLY ReNT The HardWarE FroM US, thE PriCE TO gET The SwiTCH is JusT A keY To Have ACcEss To iT"

[fringe salmon]

It reads like the lawsuit is not against emulation directly but more about how it’s done, since they focus on the instructions yuzu provides and such

[fading spade]

They still claim Yuzu promotes the use of piracy to get the games and firmware

.-. despite Yuzu very much not doing so

[fringe salmon]

So if it goes to court it seems like the decision would be if they are liable of providing aid to the crime so to say and not that they are doing something inherently criminal

[feral ferry]

Pretty sure Yuzu saying "Do not pirate" invalidates that claim

[fading spade]

Yeah, not according to Nintendo logic

[nimble current]

if nintendo went all out against emulation they'd have to retire more than one of their services relying on it to run their old games

[fading spade]

same can be said for anything.....
factories making knives aid in murders that use knives,
gun brands making guns aid in gun crimes

etc etc

[fringe salmon]

no that is not the same

[fading spade]

how not?

[fringe salmon]

they are not saying emulation (gun) is always aiding in piracy (gun crime)

they are saying yuzu is aware of the usage and provides instructions on how to do it (gun crime)

[feral ferry]

Yuzu are not providing instructions on how to pirate lol

[fading spade]

which is BS

Yuzu never promote that shit

[fringe salmon]

I mean, not entirely

I didnt say they promote piracy

[fading spade]

they dont tell you how to do it either

dumping games you have paid for legally is fully legal

[fringe salmon]

and thats not what nintendo is going after

[fading spade]

what is?

the fact that Yuzu exists means that piracy is easier or something?

[feral ferry]

Nintendo is essentially just claiming that it facilitates piracy

There's no real primary uses for Yuzu beyond piracy

[fringe salmon]

Nintendo also points to a Yuzu Discord server where emulator developers and users discuss how to get copyrighted games running on the emulator, as well as publicly released telemetry data that shows the developers were aware of widespread use of their emulator for piracy

"the Yuzu developers brazenly acknowledge that using Yuzu necessitates hacking or breaking into a Nintendo Switch."

Nintendo's lawsuit makes extensive reference to the Quickstart Guide that Yuzu provides on its own distribution site. That guide gives detailed instructions on how to "start playing commercial games" with Yuzu by hacking your (older) Switch to dump decryption keys and/or game files. That guide also includes links to a number of external tools that directly break console and/or game encryption techniques.

[feral ferry]

Which is an argument imo, faulty and easily provable against

"the Yuzu developers brazenly acknowledge that using Yuzu necessitates hacking or breaking into a Nintendo Switch."
Yes, that's not illegal

"Nintendo's lawsuit makes extensive reference to the Quickstart Guide that Yuzu provides on its own distribution site. That guide gives detailed instructions on how to "start playing commercial games" with Yuzu by hacking your (older) Switch to dump decryption keys and/or game files. That guide also includes links to a number of external tools that directly break console and/or game encryption techniques."

Yes, that's not illegal

Modifying your console and dumping your games is not illegal by law

[hardy merlin]

Should they claim it's not "your console"... We'd probably have another lawsuit then too

[fringe salmon]

"Whether Yuzu can get tagged with [circumvention] simply by providing instructions and guidance and all the rest of it is, I think, the core issue in this case,"

[feral ferry]

Yeah the whole thing of moving away from OWNING property into "RENTING" is fucking annoying too

[hardy merlin]

Or something like it used to be with Apple few years ago iirc
User does own hardware, but software is still property of corporation, so you can't modify it without committing copyright infringement

[fading spade]

LOL BS

[feral ferry]

I am highly certain that Nintendo has no legal case here and this is their own blunder

[hardy merlin]

Volvo meanwhile - do whatever the fuck you want, we will even give you instructions

[fading spade]

In Japan, Nintendo would 100% win this case, since in Japan, they technically only licence the Switch hardware to people who buy it

[fringe salmon]

We don't need to argue about if this should be legal or not since emulation obviously should be fine for your own purchase, but that is different from looking at what they are attacking in a lawsuit, no point in throwing out a dozen claims of what nintendo allegedly claims when they aren't

They arent saying emulation is piracy they are basically saying they have a case of DMCA circumvention and want to stop that

[hardy merlin]

My guess is that it wouldn't happen at all should TotK hasn't been leaked 2 weeks before release

[fallow bronze]

take the guide offline, problem fixed

[fringe salmon]

well the guide(s) just one part of the issue

then there is the question of if the emulator was specifically made to circumvent drm, as well as the TotK issue of that getting a lot of downloads of people that very clearly didnt buy the game etc.

[hardy merlin]

First one's easy - Yuzu doesn't work at all without providing necessary keys, and circumventing has to occur in some other way, be it modchip, CFW, etc.

[feral ferry]

I still don't see that Nintendo has any case whatsoever

[fringe salmon]

I mean it sounds easy but im far from an expert in dmca law so idfk what needs to be shown for that to be clear

[orchid prism]

But the sad tweets!

https://tenor.com/view/wont-somebody-please-think-of-the-children-think-of-the-children-think-about-the-children-children-the-simpsons-gif-20004023

[fringe salmon]

it's certainly not the strongest point, but it is an argument that isn't too far fetched

it would be interresting if it does go to court and doesn't settle

[feral ferry]

Yuzu merely provides a better platform to play your legally purchased games using the software of your legally purchased hardware, on PC/Linux/Mac

If anything Nintendo is crying they can't collect your telemetry anymore

And if they try argue that emulation is illegal, then stop adding emulated games to NSO subscription

[fringe salmon]

they aren't even coming close to saying that so why are you bringing it up again

[flat plover]

If they could, they would.. Since nothing happened yet, even thou they are pretty butthurt about it, they pretty much have no case to act on.

[fringe salmon]

Sure but any could/would/should doesn't matter for the case at hand

[flat plover]

Ssme with TPC vs. PW.. A lot of crying and barking, but no bite, cuz there is none to bite

[fringe salmon]

I dont remember TPC doing anything there so I also don't see how that relates

[tough jay]

Either way I find this new angle a worrying way to attack an emulator.
It could land either way, but I would say the purpose is not just piracy, even if it does benefit from it.

[solar narwhal]

@grand locust so what games do u or plan on playing?

I play apex and a game called super animal royale currently, but I do want to try playing csgo at some point

I also play Apex.

Care to play?

I've played that a little but the abilities are a bit too much of a learning gap for that game style. csgo seems a little more digestible to learn strategy

Honestly not that much since its launch, most of my playtime was during its first few weeks

I sometime play like 1-3 rounds every few months

So probably like below 20 hours i think? Most of my time has been sucked up by SMITE

Borderlands 1 came out when I was young enough to still enjoy it + relied more on abilities.

Hackers claimed to have stolen customer data from Epic. Epic found no evidence it happened.

ooo Minecraft got a "new" UI

it no longer shows the solid dirt block background in the settings when in a world

oh wait

it shows the menu panarama in the background when not in the world.... fascinating

Whoever wants it can have it

[bleak pike]

Ffs

[maiden tulip]

Ikr

[quiet vault]

[bleak pike]

Tbh I'm a little hopeful for Ubisofts game

But I don't trust them

[maiden tulip]

Same

I want it to be good

[maiden tulip]

What others lmao

They said they're "moving away from licenced ips"

[bleak pike]

Calling it now, you need to climb comm towers.

To unlock the map

[maiden tulip]

Lol

[quiet vault]

the jedi series

the 3rd one still seems to be in development

[maiden tulip]

Who knows

With ea

[bleak pike]

I just really don't like far cry approach to games and recent assassins creed

There's nothing unique about Ubisoft games anymore :/

[maiden tulip]

Did you play AC Mirage?

It was a bit more like old school ac

No rpg bs

[bleak pike]

Tbf nah I didn't

[maiden tulip]

Skill level armor crap

It was fun

I'd have bought it probably

with how much fun i had

i get ubi games for free

[bleak pike]

From what I saw it just kinda goes back to the roots but doesn't do much to add to it.

[maiden tulip]

brother works at ubi i get game keys from him

[bleak pike]

I'm a patient gamer so I'll probably wait

[maiden tulip]

😛

[bleak pike]

Still waiting for Jedi survivor to go into the normal ea pass

[maiden tulip]

That's fair enough

But yezh when you see mirage on a sale get it i guess

Or get like a month of ubi connect

Play and unsub

[bleak pike]

I almost bought Jedi survivor during the Xmas sale

almost

[maiden tulip]

I haven't finished it

[bleak pike]

Epic does a really good Xmas sale with their voucher thing.

[maiden tulip]

I got upset at bugs

And framerate problems

[bleak pike]

That's why I also waited

[maiden tulip]

Back at launch

[bleak pike]

😅

[maiden tulip]

I should actually play it now

[bleak pike]

I did the same for fallen orderz

[maiden tulip]

Also i went from a 2080 to a 7900xtx in between so

[bleak pike]

Which btw

[maiden tulip]

Better not be any issues xd

[maiden tulip]

Fallen order had issues???

[bleak pike]

I beat on max difficulty baby

Am proud of that

[maiden tulip]

I don't remember the game being buggy

[bleak pike]

At launch it was plagued with performance issues

[maiden tulip]

I really don't remember em

Maybe i just got lucky?

[quiet vault]

[maiden tulip]
