Nintendo has blocked the upcoming Steam release of GameCube and Wii emulator Dolphin. However, one emulation expert believes Dolphin 'messed up' and is at fault in this case.
, its creators wrote: “It is with much disappointment that we have to announce that the Dolphin on Steam release has been indefinitely postponed.that Nintendo has issued a cease and desist citing the DMCA against Dolphin’s Steam page, and have removed Dolphin from Steam until the matter is settled.
“We are currently investigating our options and will have a more in-depth response in the near future.”It’s often argued that emulators are legal and it’s the use of ROM images of games which is illegal. Using this argument, some claim that emulators can be entirely legal in some circumstances, such as the playing of homebrew games.has suggested that the emulator itself is at fault because it includes the Wii Common Key, a cryptographic key used by the Wii to decrypt games.
@LuigiBlood quoted a part of Nintendo’s DMCA takedown which states: “The Dolphin emulator operates by incorporating these cryptographic keys without Nintendo’s authorisation and decrypting the ROMs at or immediately before runtime”. The user also confirmed themselves that the statement was “objectively true”, adding: “I just checked, the Wii Common Key is in the emulator source code.”

Nintendo sends Valve DMCA notice to block Steam release of Wii emulator DolphinWes has been covering games and hardware for more than 10 years, first at tech sites like The Wirecutter and Tested before joining the PC Gamer team in 2014. Wes plays a little bit of everything, but he'll always jump at the chance to cover emulation and Japanese games.\n\nWhen he's not obsessively optimizing and re-optimizing a tangle of conveyor belts in Satisfactory (it's really becoming a problem), he's probably playing a 20-year-old Final Fantasy or some opaque ASCII roguelike. With a focus on writing and editing features, he seeks out personal stories and in-depth histories from the corners of PC gaming and its niche communities. 50% pizza by volume (deep dish, to be specific).
