Nintendo’s lawsuit against the Yuzu emulator resulted in a $2.4 million settlement.

Today, Monday, Nintendo and developer Tropic Haze, maker of the Nintendo Switch emulator called Yuzu, reached a court agreement to fine him $2.4 million and halt development and distribution of the program entirely.

Last month, Nintendo sued the emulator team in a lawsuit in which Nintendo alleged Yuzu was facilitating piracy by allowing illegal copies of Nintendo games to be played. According to the official report, one of the most affected games in this regard would be The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, which was pirated more than a million times before its launch: “illegal copies of the game that were distributed online could be played using Yuzu , and these copies were downloaded from pirate sites more than a million times before the game was published by Nintendo and made available for legal purchase.”

As a result, both parties agreed on a fine for Tropic Haze of $2.4 million. In addition, the ruling also requires the Yuzu development team not to promote, distribute, or continue development of Yuzu, and prohibits its members from engaging in the creation of other types of software that serve to circumvent the company’s copyright protections.
