Nobody here read what he said did they?? -_-

Gamers bought it for themselves. Buying the game doesn't give you the right to publish the game to the rest of the world. Kind of similar to movies. I don't like that Nintendo is doing this, but legally they have the right to do it in my opinion.

Pewdiepie WHO?

Funny how out of date people think Nintendo is. This is the one instance where Nintendo is ahead of the times.

It won't be long before all big companies start asking for their cut of things too. I'm surprised it has lasted this long with it being free. Companies are greedy at nature, its their job. They are there to make money.

Just like how DLC is now no longer a question but an expectation companies getting a cut of revenue will someday be the norm. People will blame Nintendo, just like people blame like EA or something for DLC, but it was going to happen sooner or later. I'm surprised and not surprised Nintendo was first. Surprised because Nintendo always seems last to adapt to things and would also expect companies liek EA or something to try this first. not surprised becuase Nintendo is the most anal and protective of their IP's out of any company I can think of.

But Pewdie pie and other youtubers/twitch/ect peopel should really plan ahead.  To expect to not have a company who's game you are playing want a cut is a bit rediculous thinking about it.  Hell Youtube takes what like 40% of their revenue, why would htey not expect the game they are playing and getting viewers due to to not want a cut as well.  

Would you rather have no video at all, or some videos (with Nintendo getting 40% of the revenue.) Remember, they're only still going to crack down on some videos now, particularly the ones making lots of revenue. And instead of removing them entirely, they're going to let them stay but demand part of the profit. 

LOL right? Nintendo is out of touch to the free marketing tactics of this era.  I am not a fan of Pewdiepie, but if he played Bayonetta, that could equate to some sales for people who own a Wii U. I mean, they should be able to ask for a certain sum of money because it is primarily their product, but PewDiePie as a brand can market their products as well. I am sure PewDiePie gets far more views on Youtube than Nintendo gets so yeah...its about the approach.

Okay, I read the article and decided I half-agree with what he said.

Nonetheless, it's PewDiePie and he should never be taken seriously. So, I give Nintendo a +1 because of this.

Well... one thing is true. Its not like Nintendo needs the money.

So, the question becomes... why all this? For some pocket change? Doesnt sound clever.

The guy with far and away the most youtube subscribers in the world.

I don't get why Nintendo are doing this. They're not gonna get that much out of it and just generates negativity. It's like they live in a bubble.

If this applies to game reviews, it's definitely crossing the moral line.
