The /g/ thread about this linked https://web.archive.org/web/20240302031159/https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/issues/13189 https://web.archive.org/web/20240302031159/https://github.co... . Would be amusing if true, though it probably isn't. (It's an issue filed on the yuzu repo by someone claiming to be so upset about yuzu dropping Windows 7 support that they sent emails to Nintendo to bring it to their attention.)

Big companies don't wait for some rando to complain to take these kinds of enforcement actions. Chances are it was already well underway by the time he typed up his message.

  Yeah.

  We saw a similar and opposite situation with Pokemon fans bothering Nintendo to go after Palworld. Considering Nintendo released a statement that boiled down to "we already know", it's clear that whatever Nintendo does or doesn't do has nothing to do with people telling them.

I simply can’t get used to the entitlement of gamers, it’s on a whole nother level. This person writes as if the authors mugged their mother, but the problem is “your emu stopped working on my computer”.

  Probably was just a troll anyway that wanted to get a rise out of the devs, and never even sent any emails or anything in the first place. “Now I hear news of a lawsuit. Probably from my awareness effort, maybe not.” This claim would’ve been more credible if it was made before news about the lawsuit broke. Thankfully the devs knew how to respond: “Linux would have solved your issues just fine.”

    Good thing the trolls, by and large, aren't on HN then!

      I don't think the intent of posting on a visible, high traffic public space is to only offend the onlookers but to also incite outrage that cascades into other communication channels. Free attention from vitriolic strangers stemming almost solely from lacking self control to the point of expressing frustrated opinions is all they could ever ask for, at a minimum.
