Nintendo Takes Down Emulators and Firmware in Massive GitHub DMCA Sweep

Nintendo has issued four DMCA takedown notices targeting Nintendo Switch emulators (Yuzu and Citron Neo) and mod chip firmware on GitHub, resulting in the removal of 144 repositories hosting the firmware. While the takedowns have been effective in removing content, similar firmware continues to be hosted elsewhere, and Nintendo may intensify its enforcement efforts as emulation technology becomes increasingly sophisticated.
