The first of the tools Denuvo is offering to Switch developers is Nintendo Switch Emulator Protection, a “revolutionary technology to protect games launching on Nintendo Switch from piracy”.

According to Denuvo, the new tech can be applied to Switch games to block the ability to play them on PC emulators.

“Even if a game is protected against piracy on its PC version, the version released on Nintendo Switch can be emulated from day one and played on PC, therefore bypassing the strong protections offered on the PC version,” the company says. “This can happen with any of the numerous games available on Nintendo Switch.

Welp, I guess we're going to be getting a DRM-breaking emulator accompanied by some weird new rant by Empress.

Was she the one who released an nfo where she went off on a random insane rant against trans people?

No one else is batshit insane enough to wanna warp their minds working with this garbage. She is already warped, so it doesn't affect her. Much.

personally I think that theres loads of people with the skillset to do it, but they all have nice jobs in cybersecurity instead of cracking video games.
