Legit question. How did the author of the emulator even got identified? How does Nintendo keeps suing these people? Do they just sign their own name on their git or something like that?

Nintendo is not suing individual developers, they are suing the company that was set up. But besides that, I doubt they took any efforts to hide themselves.

They were apparently very plainly bragging about how they were directly distributing ROMs, something that is quite blatantly illegal.

Nah they run a pretty tight ship, ie didnt even allow discussing totk when it was leaked
