Nintendo and the people behind the game emulator Yuzu have agreed to settle a lawsuit after a short civil dispute in district court over allegations that the software allowed folks to illegally download Tears of the Kingdom over one million times. On February 26, Nintendo filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court of Rhode Island against Tropic Haze, the company behind the game emulator Yuzu, for 'unlawfully' bypassing the handheld-console hybrid's protective measures.
In it, Nintendo alleged that Tropic Haze profited extensively from 'illegally-obtained' copies of Switch games, including the smash hit 2022 RPG The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Now, in new legal documentation viewed by Kotaku on March 4, the two entities—Nintendo and Tropic Haze—have seemingly settled the short-lived dispute. According to the filing, Tropic Haze must pay Nintendo $2.4 million. The developers must also stop offering Yuzu, hand over the emulator's website—and any 'modified Nintendo Switch consoles'—to Nintendo, and not attempt anything like this again
