I would like to donate to fund to defend emulators as they preserve the history of great games. We need to show Nintendo that we do not accept it’s abuse of the court system. The goal would be to make it exorbitantly expensive for Nintendo to destroy projects with frivolous lawsuits or to seek injunction against Nintendo for abusing the court.
What do you think? What is the best donation method? How can we secure legal council with donations?
I wish we could do this, but against Nintendo’s billions we may struggle a lot.
Yuzu was making 30k/mo and their best option was to quit… we’d need an order of magnitude more supporters to even be able to consider this viable.
The closest thing we could maybe do is donating to the EFF, they’re best suited to defend stuff like this. They prevented the RIAA from trying to take down “youtube-dl” for example, an archival tool supporting videos from YouTube and many other sites. The RIAA also used many of the same arguments that Nintendo used against Yuzu
Your local library. They have books, movies, and music, amd often videogames to borrow.
