      What is the alternative?

      Closed source “I swear this executable that will let you play all the games you want is legit” hosted on sourceforge or random websites that get hugged to death every day that ends in a y?

      Also: it isn’t like that would stop this kind of legal action. MS/Github are barely a factor. It is the devs themselves getting the “hey, stop it or we’ll turn you into indentured servants” letters.

      GitHub has nothing to do with this. All the information we have is that the dev himself took everything down after an agreement with Nintendo.
