Your dancing around the answer says more than you being open and honest about this ever could

So move them anywhere else in the company, they owned them outright.

This is fairly confusing. Toys for Bob were owned wholey by Activision, ergo they were then owned by Microsoft. Now they are … free? And exploring a relationship with Microsoft?

It’s hard to understand how this happened unless Microsoft wanted to close the studio and offered them independence instead. But then why work on a new thing?

it’s so crazy to me that you guys are like this, it’s a different exe, it’s fine.

You can disagree if you like, nintendos lawyers, prior art, and everyone who understands the dmca isn’t going to agree with your stance at all.

Your stance is a moral one. The dmca is not moral. It exists to limit your freedoms in favor of companies’ profits. Enjoy your blinkered outlook.

Also, never use the word code like that, it’s incorrect and everyone will misunderstand you. It’s wrong. Use encryption key.

You’re conflating the idea of code and keys. The keys are explicitly illegal as they directly fall under nintendo copyright.

The code is also falling under breach of dmca, as its entire use and focus is to break drm. This is the sticking point here.

Again, to labor the point, it’s nothing about the keys, we don’t need to talk about the keys.

Okay, well, that’s your opinion based on nothing, so it doesn’t mean much.

At the very least, read the prior art en.wikipedia.org/…/Universal_City_Studios%2C_Inc.…

No, it’s broader than that. Providing a mechanism is enough. Yes, this is functionally making maths illegal, and yes, this is a complaint we’ve had with the dmca for 20 years.

Providing the keys is against dmca, as is Providing the tooling that specifically breaks the rights management. This is just the shitty way Americans made the copyright system.

unfortunately, that isn’t how the DMCA works

echo64, 7 miesięcy temu do games w Nintendo is suing the creators of Switch emulator Yuzu

it decrypts games using your console keys though? i’ve seen mention of that in their docs so i’m not sure, but yeah if it does that, it’s similar to things that decrypt blurays. feasibly against the dmca because of how broad the dmca is.

Then it uses those legal keys to decrypt the ROMs by the exact normal method that the Switch itself uses

this is the part where they circumvent the copyright protection, even if you do it “the same way” it’s still not authorized, the DMCA is fairly broad about this stuff, one of the reasons it’s so bad
