    All copyrighted material is stripped from the repos and has to be extracted from a valid rom by the user.

    The reverse engineered code doesn’t count as derivative.

    Super Mario 64 has been decompiled for years now.

      I am not a lawyer so can’t comment on the reverse engineered code counting as derivative. Personally, I thought it would be considered that. The time doesn’t mean much considering Yuzu.

      Yuzu | Initial release | January 14, 2018; 6 years ago |

        Yeah, but the Yuzu devs allegedly bragged about TotK running on EA builds before release. The decompilers weren’t that stupid.

        Decompilations are about as legal as emulators (that don’t circumvent encryption).
