There are more than enough game companies that actually seek these pre arranged deals, especially if you're making a living out of this then you're likely with a network .

Also what is your argument here other than that they didn't make the games? The Let's Players are still putting work into them and there's clearly a demand for that type of content, so why shouldn't they live off of making these videos? With the crushing majority of publishers actually embracing youtubers and streamers you can be pretty sure that they don't see any negative and much more positive effects in Let's Plays, to then say that those Let's Players should not be able to make money off of that reeks of nothing but one thing: jealousy.

And how did you come to that braindead conclusion? I didnt say YouTubers should not be make money, "just not off other peoples content". If your an animater/chef/car repair/crafts&arts and you want spread your work through YouTube and make a living by doing it, by god do it! But not off "others" content. 

I dont care that a "crushing majority" of developers support it. Does Nintendo support it? 

Uh, lol. I was specifically talking about Let's Players, you should really read my post before hurling insults at me.

Also that's quite the jump here, why is Nintendo suddenly the authority on if Let's Players should be able to make money with Youtube or not? Oh and btw. yes, their way is completely backwards but Nintendo does support Let's Players making a living off of their videos.
