The agreement not only effects Yuzu but also affects Citra, an emulator for the Nintendo 3DS. Bunnei, the creator of both emulators, declared on Discord that support for Yuzu and Citra would be discontinued.

Yuzu developers stated "But we see now that because our projects can circumvent Nintendo's technological protection measures and allow users to play games outside of authorized hardware, they have led to extensive piracy."
