Unsurprising move. People should’ve moved them elsewhere.

      My understanding is the prod keys are required to tell the software (e.g. games) that it is running on an authorised device and passes certain checks / DRM.

      To run the software without prod keys would require (I think) patching each game individually to skip those checks. So it could be possible but wildly impractical unless some other work around is found.

        But it could be something that the user has to provide, like the BIOS in PS emulators for exemple

          Yeah for sure, I think the user had to provide keys in the latest Yuzu anyway?

          It was donation builds with support for tears of the kingdom before released that screwed the project. The code itself was legal afaik.
