Nintendo Blocks Dolphin Emulator's Steam Release with DMCA Notice
TL;DR
The release of the Dolphin emulator on Steam has been indefinitely postponed after Valve received a DMCA takedown notice from Nintendo, claiming the emulator violates its intellectual property rights. The Dolphin team can either file a counter-claim or comply with the takedown notice. The team is currently investigating its options and has not received a direct takedown notice from Nintendo. The Dolphin emulator can still be downloaded from the project's website and GitHub page.
