yuzu and citra are dead because the yuzu/citra devs shot themselves in the foot. they continually POSTED footage and updates pertaining to games THAT WEREN'T OUT YET, which gave nintendo actual foothold to take them down for encouraging piracy. this is recorded directly in the legal documents for the case. they also (apparently, this is according to my friend who is more active in the emulation scene than i and i don't know of any recorded proof so take it with a grain of salt) straight up shared links to piracy sites in their discord which is an obvious no-no for any emulator???? and people straight up going on nintendo's OFFICIAL SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS saying "fuck you i'm just going to emulate [insert game here] using yuzu" which is. well. loose lips sink ships.
fuck nintendo and all that, but this is almost entirely on the backs of the devs for being stupid. to any aspiring emulator devs out there: don't post about anything relating to piracy ever, especially don't post about the games THAT YOU AREN'T SUPPOSED TO HAVE ACCESS TO YET, and wait a while before saying a brand new game is playable on your emulator.
also: they settled out of court. no judge saw the case. this isn't setting any sort of legal precedent. all of your other favorite emulators are fine for now as long as they don't make the same stupid mistakes yuzu was making.

citra (3DS emulator) just got hit with a cease&desist, so anyone who needs the ability to fool around with it should back up the latest OS build before the files on the site go offline. there's an archive.org mirror too.
I have no doubt other emulators will eventually carry the torch since the code's open-source, but it may be a while before it settles down.

fuck nintendo for killing yuzu and citra.
fuck nintendo for relentlessly trying to gut game preservation efforts the community had to make because they themselves don't give two shits about preservation.
fuck nintendo for setting such a dangerous precedent against the emulation community as a whole.
just... fuck nintendo.
here's your reminder that pirating nintendo products is always morally correct.

Citra, the emulator for Nintendo 3DS, is also shutting down operations alongside Yuzu, the emulator for Nintendo Switch.
This is a result of the settlement to the lawsuit Nintendo did against Yuzu, in claims of infringing on their copyright and DMCA, and "allowing piracy".
The Yuzu team (and Citra team) has agreed to their terms.
This is the statement on Citra emulator website citra-emu.org, quote:
"Hello yuz-ers and Citra fans: We write today to inform you that yuzu and yuzu’s support of Citra are being discontinued, effective immediately. yuzu and its team have always been against piracy. We started the projects in good faith, out of passion for Nintendo and its consoles and games, and were not intending to cause harm. But we see now that because our projects can circumvent Nintendo’s technological protection measures and allow users to play games outside of authorized hardware, they have led to extensive piracy. In particular, we have been deeply disappointed when users have used our software to leak game content prior to its release and ruin the experience for legitimate purchasers and fans. We have come to the decision that we cannot continue to allow this to occur. Piracy was never our intention, and we believe that piracy of video games and on video game consoles should end. Effective today, we will be pulling our code repositories offline, discontinuing our Patreon accounts and Discord servers, and, soon, shutting down our websites. We hope our actions will be a small step toward ending piracy of all creators’ works. Thank you for your years of support and for understanding our decision."

how intellectual property defenders talk about it: "what, do you want massive companies to just rip off the work of small creators?"
how intellectual property actually works: billion dollar company extorts $2.4m from open source project for the crime of doing absolutely nothing wrong while unable to afford to fight a legal case

Quick and Dirty Overview of the Yuzu Situation
The Citra team who developed both Yuzu (Switch) and Citra (3DS) emulators were sued by Nintendo and settled out of court for 2.4 Million
They have removed their websites and source code
Since the source code has been removed installers no longer work but there are archives of the full programs up on archive.org already
While there are other Nintendo Switch emulators out there that isn't the case for the 3ds as the other emulators are all built on Citra
The final judgment mentions a few tools used in modding and homebrewing the switch however these tools are not owned by the Citra team and will remain online. The Citra team is just required to delete the programs from their devices.
Now more than ever it is important to remember to never let Nintendo or any other company know if and how you are pirating.
