    So, are Yuzu developers actually have $2.4M lying around, or will they pay for it in installment like Gary Bowser?

      they were making 30k/mo for a while, so for sure they can pay some of it off.

      The fact that they quickly agreed to this amount tells you all you need to know about how much money they - personally - made from the patreon.

      No wonder Nintendo got this so easily, unlike the other emulators they went after. With that kind of cash, good luck arguing in front of a judge that you’re not running Yuzu as a commercial business.

        Yes it tells me all I need to know: that they don’t care about the amount because they are going to declare bankruptcy anyway, since Yuzu is an LLC.
