Answer me. Would you not buy a console that has tons of great games that you love because you can´t see let´s plays of your favourite youtuber about those games?

Watching let's play is not part of the consumer to product relationship.

This policy would have no affect on whether I buy a nintendo console myself, I never said it would have an affect on console sales and if anyone did.... well. Does not mean that it isn't a problem for some nintendo consumers however.

A consumer problem does not have to be directly related to the product they are purchasing. If something has a negative affect on a consumer then it is a consumer problem.

Exactly this.
I'm pretty sure he is making a lot of money! And the funniest part is that people sympathize with him!!
He is probably making more money out of this than any money nintendo could take from his videos.

You are failing to distinguish between being a consumer and something you enjoy.
Yes, you buy a Nintendo product therefore you are a consumer.
but
Your enjoyment of let's play is your individual choice.
You need to realize that watching Let's play is your personal preference and not part of the consumer self
The reason this whole fiasco is even an issue is money plain and simple, some people can argue about free advertising and all that well we've yet to see the correlation between YT views and sales for larger developers. People aren't defending Nintendo as the policy is silly they just recognize it's all about money in the end and always has been since the whole partnership thing took off for YT, would these guys even be complaining if partnerships didn't exist and you couldn't make money on YT to begin with, the whole anti-whatever is just being used as ammo much like politicians using one issue as a stance while another is actually the main driving point.
The are many people who will upload videos just as a hobby and companies like SE, Sega, Atlus and so on also flag videos which is why it's not as black and white as some are claiming because a lot of the heat is being directed to one company.
The policy is silly and annoying but many are signing up and the's a smart element as I'm willing to bet that those signing up aren't the AJs and Boogies but everyone else, the people with the smaller channels who don't get as many views as a single channel but collectively will be comparable and are being given a partnership that they wouldn't normally get as a smaller channel.

If a company does something that has a negative affect on a consumer it's causing a consumer a problem. Simple as that in my mind.

You were right. This video is good, probably the best that I´ve seen from him.
Still don't know why this is getting so much attention. Is angry Joe that big? Is it a slow news week? I mean pewdiepie also ranted about it, as did many other youtubers but then it was over. And now it's suddenly news again?
