Nintendo has forced Valve to delist a Wii and GameCube emulator from Steam, citing it violates the megacorp’s intellectual property rights.
In a letter seen by PC Gamer, Nintendo issued Valve a DMCA notice, stating Valve had an “obligation to remove the offering of the Dolphin emulator from the Steam store”.
“Because the Dolphin emulator violates Nintendo’s intellectual property rights, including but not limited to its rights under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA)’s Anti-Circumvention and AntiTrafficking provisions, 17 U.S.C. § 1201, we provide this notice to you of your obligation to remove the offering of the Dolphin emulator from the Steam store,” the demand stated.
