Nintendo Forces Ryujinx Switch Emulator to Shut Down

Ryujinx developers halt operations after lead creator receives an undisclosed offer from Nintendo.

Ryujinx, a popular Nintendo Switch emulator, has ceased operations following a direct offer from Nintendo.
The lead developer, known as gdkchan, was contacted by Nintendo and instructed to remove all related assets.
The shutdown follows a similar action against the Yuzu emulator, which settled with Nintendo for $2.4 million in March.
Developers had been working on several improvements, including iOS and Android versions, which will now remain unreleased.
The closure is seen as a significant blow to the emulation community and efforts in game preservation.
