Nintendo started this youtube digital rights shutdown at the start of the gen.
Proportional drop between let's play youtubers dropping nintendo and console and handheld sales dropping or simple coincidence?

First you must verify the bolded. Is this true?

It cannot be proven, obviously.

But with youtube creators boycotting it......

They aren't though. I can find plenty of Nintendo oriented let's plays. There will be plenty of people perfectly happy to get 60% of revenue (if they accrue viewers), but honestly most let's players do it as a hobby, not for money. They'll be glad Nintendo isn't removing their videos. This only affects the few who do it as a business.
