    Nothing, that’s not the point. The point is that the developers stop work on it and eventually it stops working. Then the Switch 2 comes out and Switch 2 games cannot be emulated. Nobody thinks that Yuzu, in the current state, will stop being available.

      But if it’s open source, can’t someone else fork the project and continue?

        They can. But I guess there is a limited amount of potential Switch emulator developers, and people who have an interest in that are already working on Yuzu. A new team can absolutely happen, and will also get sued until no one even tries anymore. I guess that’s the idea on Nintendo’s side.
