You should really probably keep this on the DL. No reason to shut the project down regardless of what Nintendo does, but this needs to be done quietly now since it's gotten a ton of attention.
Edit: Just bcz, fuck you nintendo, I'm never buying your consoles again. You lost any remaining sliver of goodwill you had with this move.
It sure as fuck was. Half of the Nintendo community knows about this situation, and unless for some reason they still have respect for this evil company, they will now freely play whatever switch games they want without giving Nintendo a dime.
I'm sure most Nintendo "fans" aren't a fan of the company itself, just the games
And the subsequent C&Ds/lawsuits to the idiots who are "forking" the tainted codebase will do an even better job of explaining "you fuck with Nintendo and we will literally own you for the rest of your life"
That also assumes the various projects have competent developers (unlikely since anyone with the technical ability knows why you don't touch this code) and isn't just a way to rush in some crypto miners and spyware to people who are mad they can't have yuzu.
Because this is generally hundreds, if not thousands, of years hours of their life.
Part of it is wanting to get some degree of recognition for that. Part of it is that this is very much part of their portfolio for future jobs searches.
