And the damn thing still broke sales records with 18 million copies sold.

“In effect, Yuzu turns general computing devices into tools for massive intellectual property infringement of Nintendo and others’ copyrighted works.”

So, what’s the point of the Switch then? If all these devices can play any Switch game, yet Nintendo refuses to allow people to buy and run them on these devices, then it sounds to me like they’ve done this to themselves. I empathise for all the work developers have put into their games, but I have no sympathy for the executives who decide to make their games exclusive to an overpriced irrelevant piece of technology.

Making money off third-party games is the point of the switch :)

A Nintendo store on PC would sell a lot of Nintendo games, but they couldn’t make a lot of other games exclusive to that store.
