Barely a month after 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nintendo Switch emulator Ryujinx vanished, i🍷t's emerged that 🧸Nintendo is now apparently the owner of its old website domain.

In early October, a message sent in the Ryujinx Discord server by one of the emulator's developers claimed that the lead developer had been "contacted by Nintendo and offered an agreement to stop working on the project, remove the organization and all related assets he's in control of." Soon after, downloads and GitHub repo💝sitories were removed, and although its website remained live at the time, nothing seems to load on it anymore – but that doesn't mean that some things haven't ch༒anged behind the scenes. 

, there was an update on November 7, although it's not clear if that's when Nintendo took ownership of it. Again, it doesn't appear that the Ryujinx website is actually functional anymore – there's nothing to see there – but perhaps Nintendo has taken this measure so that no one else can revive the emulator using the same domain later down the line.
