I would swear that "lets plays" and "speedruns" if anything just help promote games and their sales rise because of it.
I dont see how this helps nintendo in anyway, its a loss of free PR.

Its like pewdiepie playing a game, you know thats going to help sales.
It makes no sense to stop a guy like him from doing a "lets play".

Plus this stuff comes off really "anti-gamer friendly", which is not a good thing for a console maker.

Nintendo are killing their own brand with this stuff.

Except Pewdipie actually played Super Mario 64 on an emulator.

And The Nintendo 64, released back in 1996.

As far as I know, nintendo dont make or sell new Nintendo 64s.... so they dont lose a peny on someone useing a emulator.

 

After 20years or so, hopefully you have made all the profits you ever will off of the software your selling.

Nintendo need to just look past the emulation part, I wouldnt be surprised if pewdiepie playing a emulator game of a 19year old mario game, didnt in some ways boost mario game sales.


They should save themselvs the money they use on people takeing down Lets plays & speedruns, and put that towards makeing NEW games instead.
