    Yeah idk I checked the GitHub and the website just now cause I was curious. MIT license but I dont see how this is still standing unless Nintendo likes to keep it around? Or unless you can do this as long as it doesnt make any money or take donations? No idea.

      I figure if Nintendo ever made a comparable product they would sue them out of existence, but tolerate it as long as it doesn’t compete directly with them. Sort of like the understanding Blizzard had with private WoW servers until they created Classic WoW and sued them into oblivion.

        A satisfying hypothesis but also chilling. These things become a psrt of the zeitgeist and they’re all seemingly a finger twitch away from the void.
