    I do not see Nintendo trying to stop Dolphin on just the keys. If they end up losing that battle, it could lead to other emulators just including decryption keys as well.

    Hopefully everyone involved calms down after this.

    As much as Nintendo would be willing to sue to kill Dolphin, they know they would be incurring significant risk of setting bad legal precedents for themselves: see what Sony did on the VGS case. The most they can do is threaten Dolphin and hope that it stops. Thankfully Dolphin didn’t bit this bait.
