Emulator Makers Navigate Legal Challenges Amid Nintendo Crackdown

TL;DR Summary
Following the shutdown of the Yuzu Switch emulator by Nintendo, a new emulator called Suyu has emerged, aiming to avoid legal issues by not monetizing, providing game guides, or supporting piracy. The project is consulting legal experts and plans to require users to provide their own encryption keys. Suyu, built from Yuzu's source code, is not yet available and is being cautiously rolled out to address technical and legal concerns, but it remains to be seen how Nintendo will respond to this new development.
