    Default Nintendo blocks Steam release of Wii emulator Dolphin

    https://www.pcgamer.com/nintendo-sen...lator-dolphin/

    long time no see...just thought i'd leave this news here. nintendo's aiming their hatred at a gamecube emulator this time. and far as my money's concerned, nintendo's been a blacklisted company for years now. outside of physical consoles/cartridges/discs they no long make or support it's emulation or nothing for me.

    screw this company. single most hateful, anti-fan, company of the entire video game industry bar NONE!

    From what I've seen on YouTube, Dolphin incorporates the Wii Common Key in the emulator source code. That would give Nintendo reason to go after the developers of Dolphin. One way would be to remove the Wii Common Key and let the end user supply it, BIOS etc.

    "It's always morally right to pirate Nintendo games."
    Saw this on the internet several times. Words to live by.
