Watch Jim Sterling's video on this. There isn't even a remote chance that the FTC will act against a channel that is not exclusively for children and deliberately pretending to not be. That is if they have the time to act at all. The FTC is no danger at all here.

The only issue is youtube's shitty algorithm for flagging kids content which could lead to demonetization for certain videos, but that's nothing new. I mean it's hilarious that you bring it up in context of Nintendo because Nintendo itself is at the forefront of unjustly demonetizing videos of people. Nintendo is literally a bigger threat to creators than the FTC.

Except Nintendo has already removed its old YouTube Partnership Program and aheres to the usual policies that other companies are adhering to.

I have a hard time believing that they comply with free use all of a sudden. Seems like that would've been big news. The policies that other companies adhere to also ignore free use on a regular basis, because they all use youtube's automatic copyright detection tool.
