What if Nintendo does the same thing with Used games?

The strange thing is that I don't think Nintendo has such a big problem with used games.

Cause they don't do price protection and all, all those used games are like at most $5
off.

I wonder if Mario games and the like are collectathons to subliminally brainwash people to collect and not resell.

Maybe, but did they not just claim the ad money from youtube videos of their games? Things to think about.

On that I have to agree with them.  If you read a book that you did not write and put it on you tube, you can't make money off of it with out purchasing rights from the copyright holder.  If you perform a copyrighted play, you have to pay the copyright holder.  So why should you be able to post the entire game online and expect to make money just because you add inane voice overs.  Nintendo did not prevent them from posting, just making money off of it.  Seems completely legit to me, and not in any way consumer hostile.  If they started sending out cease and decist orders or take down requests... that would have been hostile, legally justifiable, but not in thier best intrests.
