    How we cover AI-assisted projects - GBAtemp community check-in

    Including what a project already discloses on AI usage seems appropriate. You’re just including context that the person who created the project already provided. Not trying to make a judgement on using LLMs in coding or other places. The amount of software being written that doesn’t use LLMs...

    Limited Edition Zelda-themed Switch 2 images have leaked online

    I know the screen on the Switch 2 has worse response times than the original. Maybe I haven’t played games where that response time matters, but from a subjective perspective the size, resolution, better contrast, more vibrant colors all make it much better experience than the OG switch.

    Limited Edition Zelda-themed Switch 2 images have leaked online

    I only meant the design. It’s a great combination of color and subtle design and looks great in person (I happen to own this one). I’d agree the overall the original XL might be the worst 3DS. The battery life improvement was good, but the build quality is worse than the original and the...

    Trump to nominate Matt Gaetz for Attorney General

    Since you’re an expert on consent laws, I’m sure you can tell us the age of consent in Florida. The report also says she was paid $400. The full report text is here and it explains when and why it was commissioned: It also has evidence for anyone to judge in their own.

    Majora’s Mask PC port 2Ship2Harkinian gets its first release

    The executable is only the game engine (and tools). The assets (graphics, sounds, etc) comes from the rom file. This also keeps things legal. The devs aren’t distributing any Nintendo created assets. The person using it must provide that. They are only distributing a reimplementation of the...

    GitLab has taken down the Suyu Nintendo Switch emulator

    “Yuzu” was not sued by Nintendo and isn’t a legal entity. Tropic Haze which was a LLC setup by the devs of Yuzu was sued. They didn’t settle because they made an emulator. They settled because there was a lot of evidence they actively facilitated piracy and knew they were doing it. Not...

    The Unknowns of Emulation: A Breakdown of Yuzu V. Nintendo

    https://wccftech.com/yuzu-telemetry-piracy-nintendo-user-data/ There is a reason that even if Nintendo wanted to they don’t go after every emulator. The Yuzu devs made it easy as this article illustrates. They messed up and allowed Nintendo to muddy the waters with other claims they likely...

    DraStic DS Emulator on Android is now free to download, will be taken down soon

    An emulator moving from paid and closed source to open source and free is a good thing for emulation. I’m not seeing how this specific example is a “win” for Nintendo. The situation with Yuzu kicked the Dev into gear on something that ideally would have been done earlier.

    Amazon has removed Emulation-Station from its app store because it "facilitates piracy"

    For those pointing out that Emulation Station is legal, App Store content policies exclude content that is legal all the time. Amazon, Apple, Google only care about what it means for their business when making these decisions. Amazon tends to have more lax policies since they care less about...

    I didn’t know there were so many lawyers on this board.

    Twin Galaxies and Billy Mitchell reach a private settlement in the defamation lawsuit

    I enjoyed the King of Kong movie a lot. However, many of the people involved (particularly Billy Mitchell) seem completely insufferable.

    Nintendo has taken down the Link's Awakening fan remake

    I don’t think you understood what I wrote. I respect a wide variety of opinions in the conversation about a a company engaging with their fan community and the value it creates for their business. I don’t think there is one answer for all businesses, and I probably agree with you more than...
