How strong is Nintendo’s legal case against Switch-emulator Yuzu?
arstechnica.com

Seriously what is this? Nintendo argues that by instructing users how to extract the prod.keys from their own switch the yuzu developers are essencially infringing on the DMCA.

So what? Now you can't even freely use your own property anymore because it goes against the design intentions of some big company that just want's to milk their users?

Nintendo goes directly after this argument in its lawsuit, arguing that buying a Switch game only means you "have Nintendo's authorization to play that single copy on an unmodified Nintendo Switch console."

Which emulator should I use for the latest Zelda on Linux?

CEMU and BotW worked great. Yuzu wasn't really working at the time but maybe it's the better option now?

You can also try ryujinx if you can't get yuzu to work.

Ryu has always been my preference <3 never liked the Yuzu interface for some reason.

I played TotK start to end on yuzu on release in 4k with ultrawide and 60 fps mod, little to no issues.

BotW is also very playable now on yuzu, development sped up drastically when TotK released.

I use Yuzu in linux and never had a problem emulating anything, but who knows

The latest Zelda was not released on any other console than Switch, so Yuzu is the only way. Works great on the Steam Deck as well.
