Nintendo Is Taking Down My Videos [video]
This specifically happened because the guy put a financial bounty on a multiplayer mod for Breath of the Wild.<p>Nintendo has always been fairly straightforward on this sorta thing if you look at their actions:<p>1. Don't <i>make</i> them care. Don't draw attention to yourself, just do what you want to do. Relatedly, don't talk to Vice, Polygon, Kotaku or any other authoritative source because then you'll be competing with Nintendo in the press for relevance, and that'll make them upset.<p>2. No piracy. Nintendo has a very wide definition of piracy, which includes emulation <i>if</i> it has the possibility of being done through piracy (which is most emulation but not most emulation development). Specifically don't do anything that can directly enable piracy, such as dumping ROMs or say... trying to organize a Melee tournament using a Dolphin netplay mod.<p>3. No money. Money makes things complicated and will make Nintendo care. Just straight up - you're going to need to do it pro bono. If you expect financial benefits of any kind, just go elsewhere.<p>4. Don't directly compete with Nintendo - no direct sequels or remakes.<p>Otherwise they'll turn a blind eye. This guy violated point 1 and point 3; tech blogs wrote about him and he put up a financial bounty for it.
