I'd be careful with that statement. Sony embracing game streaming is most likely in their future too. PSNow and Rio will most likely be their next 'consoles'.

I hope that they get hit with enough rocks then.

There will be a PS5.  PS Now will just be an added feature.  Still, there is nothing wrong with embracing game streaming, though I was talking about actual game footage streaming, i.e. Youtube and Twitch.  It is definitely not something Nintendo has adjusted for.  Which isn't going to help next gen.

He would've been making more Nintendo videos if he would've succumbed to the NIntendo partnership on youtube where they get a cut of Youtubers ad revenue.

Going back to the 1980's, Nintendo has always pushed as far as they can until someone stops them. I mean, this is the company that asked a court to ban Game Genie lol.

So true. Most people either don't know Nintendo's history or blindly ignore it the type of company they are dealing with because their output is so good.

You realize he runs a community and website on top of doing reviews, interviews, streaming, etc?  He doesn't just sit around doing nothing.  And he's a darn fine reviewer who is honest with his opinions and tells it how it is.  Don't just be a reactionist and jump on someone without knowing the facts.

And even if he were as you describe, that wouldn't change the fact that Nintendo us well known for their unreasonable practices on YouTube.  Even people who cover them regularly admit that they have to do a ton of finagling to make sure their content isn't flagged.  Nintendo isn't perfect.  YouTube is a glaring flaw for them.  Everyone knows it.

So, let me get this straight. If someone went to your house and filmed you creating say a piece of art without your consent and knowledge and put it on youtube with add revenue and got thousands of views, you would be ok with that? Its Nintendo's property man, they can do what they want with it. Perhaps its even a strategy to see wich youtubers are more interested in the money than the passion for the coverage. 

Yes, i agree this money doesnt make a difference to Nintendo, so there may be more here than meets the eye. Is it greed from Nintendo? Perhaps... but the thing is... no one is forcing you to cover Nintendo stuff. I understand ranting when the policy came out, but this mario party thing is clickbait and his subscribers are beeing taken in for this charade.

Art is allowed by law to be used by others if there is creative license taken from it (which is what Youtubers are allowed to do). There is no legality which protects Lets Plays, but rather artistic license and cutting off soundbytes from Youtube. Nintendo found a loophole from censoring people (which they tried to do a couple of years ago) and cut into the ad revenue. They've actively been trying to censor people and if they can't censor you, to get you to bow down to them is the next best thing they can think of.

He said he bought it with his own money but this is coming from the guy who claims he couldnt afford a PS3 last gen so he might be full of it. To answer your question, most likely yes.
