      I’ve seen hearsay that there have been Yuzu patches specifically to aid compatibility with TOTK before it was officially out, which would have greatly supported the “mainly/primarily used for piracy” argument in court.

      I would agree with you, but there was apparently evidence that specific patches were made that allowed TOTK to work. And then if you take a look at the link, there were screenshots of the Nintendo documents to suggest that TOTK apparently was not the Yuzu team’s first rodeo when it came to patching for pre-release games

        It doesn’t matter if there’s patches to make it work specifically, if they don’t contain Nintendo’s code. At most they could accuse whoever contributed the patch with piracy / breach of NDA or similar for having downloaded the ROM prior to release (couldn’t have purchased it) but that doesn’t impact the emulator itself
