Do "Let's Play" channels on YouTube have to pay Nintendo a fee or something in order to post their play throughs online? Cause I see popular ones like GameGrumps doing a series on Mario Maker and LOZ A Link Between Worlds right now for example, whereas other popular YouTubers like Angry Joe have complained about Nintendo pulling videos that feature Nintendo games or products.


Some YouTubers have direct contacts with/within NoA or Treehouse and are either on a white list in and of themselves or their MCN has them on deals with Nintendo, and they can produce whatever they want so long as it isn't obviously illegal/racist/derogatory, etc. (See: any youtube personality that gets free stuff from Nintendo for review or unboxing purposes.)

Others either use the Creator's Program, or know how to cheat the system.
