Pointcrow's video • Nintendo is Taking Dow... This is the greatest common nintendo L of All Time Merch moistglobal.com/ I stream every day / moistcr1tikal
Well Nintendo has copyright struck themselves before. There was also the imposter Nintendo going around copystriking videos. I think the guy was in Japan and thus Nintendo went after him and asked the government to press charges against the guy. No idea what happened afterwards but if they went for it the guy is 99.9% in prison.
@@s0mguy777 he dead... but I am basing it off of Japan's prosecutorial sucess rate. It is very high because they only go for cases they know for sure they will win, even more so than in the US.
Ridiculous how companies like Nintendo and Disney have incredible, child friendly, nostalgic content and yet they come down on its own customers like the devil . Insane.
I can't say I agree. Most of Disney's content since the 50's (not counting Marvel or Star Wars media) is often poorly made, and at least Nintendo isn't involved in terrorist attacks or other ridiculous things like forcing the public domain laws to change. If they were, I'd lose my respect until new people are in charge.
It sounds like Sony Betamax all over again. i for one am done buying Nintendo products. Not because of anything any content creator has said; but because of how Nintendo has utterly lost its way. I think they would even; today; go after the creators of Game Geine. The original mod box that truly started it all. And you know where they would be? The same bin as Sega Saturn.

Honestly their games are okay. But it's better to stop buying them. Let Nintendo sink and it would be better for all gaming. If devs stopped making games for Nintendo we would all be better off.
@@JamieZero7 ...but many of us need new Mario, Donkey Kong, The Legend of Zelda, etc. video games! How about letting Nintendo, *_itself,_* sink but keep the Mario, Donkey Kong, The Legend of Zelda, etc. video game franchises alive there?
I feel like that that's just Nintendo fans in general. Sometimes I get so irritated at the company and will just start ranting and my family gets confused because I love these games and I usually reply with something along the lines of "I'm a fan of the games not the company."
I know the exact reason they gave him 2 strikes. I recently learned that if you get a strike on your channel and appeal it but lose, you can get ANOTHER strike for “lying”, which would make that strike 3 on his channel and it would get him banned. It’s a scare tactic to keep people from making appeals. MXR Plays and TwoSetViolin are some classic examples and explained it in a few videos.
"Nobody hates Nintendo fans more then Nintendo" is probably one of the most accurate statements on Nintendo. It's like they hate free advertisements and traction through word of mouth. Hopefully they get better in the future.
They won't in the near future and never will in the far future. Japanese companies will NEVER understand fair use and will ALWAYS believe their retarded laws from their island apply to the whole world. Over there there is no such thing as fair use. They would rather disappear the product entirely off the Internet and make it nearly impossible to purchase is legally if it means it cannot be distributed, even officially, on the Internet. For examples just look at some music for openings and endings for some anime. If for some reason the only version of it you can find is one where the sound is slightly wrong or it sounds slightly faster or slowed down, that's because that record company went nuclear with anyone uploading that music and refuses to upload official versions of it on the Internet. And if you would want to buy just that one tune to listen to it? Too bad either only in Japan or you have to buy the ENTIRE album with music you don't want to get it. And because of this they enable dodgy places to sell things like that because you know JAPAN LOGIC. If your CZcams content is exclusively content from one Japanese company or you have content that comes from one here and there you have to always be ready for it to go NUCLEAR at random at any given time of They just so happen to change a CEO and that new guy is a complete clueless lunatic. Treat content from those companies as always live nuclear volcanos. How people haven't learned this already by now where every company from Japan has done shit like this and some like Nintendo have been repeat offenders with multiple counts, I will never understand.😮
@Jay Talents No bro. That's only them damaged hoes you been messing with that are more likely to love people that don't love them back. Yaknow. People with issues. Normal people don't love those that don't love them back.
@Jay Talents it's sad really, it's been a huge trend to get completetly attached to childhood games or movies and not see the absolute evil in the company. People just turn the blind eye because the games remind them of better times that they are for some reason unable to get now.
Pirating Nintendo games is ethically right. Not only are they the only company that still keeps all their games locked on an archaic console at 30 fps, but they are goobers who don't deserve to be supported.
This is like buying a copy of the Monopoly board game and making your own house rules to play the game your own way. Then, Hasbro kicks in your door and throws your living room table out the window and sets it on fire.
Nintendo Lawyer: You are illegally profiting off of the sale of our copyrighted material and we demand you stop immediately! Clerk: Sir, this is a Best Buy...
I respect their hustle. Their sustainable model doesn’t care about your advertising, and you are profiting off of their copyrighted material. Quality products sell themselves. Accidentally play a song in the background of your videogame stream and you get pulled down? Copyright is real, American companies like the advertising because they produce call of duty and madden. Nintendo is different.
Fun fact: Back in the Wii U days, when I had an active channel, I got contacted by Nintendo Switzerland about a partnership. They'd send me a Wii U console with two games to advertise in CZcams videos. A week after posting the first video, it was striked by Nintendo. Once I got back to Nintendo Switzerland they told me that there was nothing they could do. So I basically got a Nintendo Wii U for free 🤣
@@flamedramon68 I can't tell if this is bait because it literally takes two seconds to see the 1.9k subs or you're just too lazy to click on someone's channel xD
SEGA loves when people mod their content and happily accepted ocs in their game Sonic Forces. There was also a case where SEGA personally stepped in and took down a Sonic game because the owner was a pedo, never touched any other game just that one. Don't lump SEGA in with the dumpster fire that is Nintendo.
Ummmm excuse me? Saying that only japanese companies refuse to learn how to use the internet seems a little racist to me, are you saying that only because they're japanese they have no mental capacity to learn how to use the internet? Lmao ok bigot
For a company that single handedly saved the gaming industry in the 80’s, you’d think they’d be ahead of the industry… but no. They’re decades behind everyone else
Well, they are still one of the most successful gaming companies in history and the most cash infused gaming company in Japan so until that changes, they are going to keep doing what they have been doing.
i still remember the time where nintendo asked people on twitter whats their favourite music produced by them and all responses where shown with copyright struck videos
@@incurableraven4960 scummy? The people doing that were scummy? Nah, with the attitude Nintendo has shown their devout fans of their games like how Charlie said it almost like they hate us, they deserved that, let it get under their skin and bother them because they deserve that kind of disrespect being thrown at them, especially with Nintendo putting people's livelihoods in jeopardy for such small things. So this is really what they had coming to them as pushback from the people they owe their success to.
@@joel3683I think raven meant Nintendo was scummy, likely understood the situation as “hey show us where people uploaded our music so we can copyright strike them”
Because "photos allowed" to them means "photos to be displayed in this museum are allowed to be on display in this _art_ museum", in other words, an ambiguous "photos allowed"
No it's like if they said "cameras allowed but do not draw on the paintings" and then you draw on one of the paintings and take pictures and then take pictures of a bunch of other things too, and then they come and take your camera and you cry because "not all of your pictures were of paintings you drew on". This guy's an idiot and he knew how careful Nintendo is with modded content and anybody interested can look into their past and why they need to be so careful with copyright laws
They knew perfectly well what they were doing with that double-strike. That's such a messed up way to imply Crow's on thin ice with them, like.... ANYTHING could take him out from that point on. This is all just... so messed up.
They really do hate it. It's such a shame! Because if they took even a second to look at something like Minecraft, they'd realize just how successful free advertising can be lol
CZcams allows companies to abuse its system because they're fed up being sued for billions of dollars in lawsuits so they just said fk it. So now they just sit behind DMCA safe harbor laws and say "if you have a problem with your strikes, take them to court" well I want to start seeing them dragged into court.
It's either this or no youtube. The moment youtube has an opinion on copyright, they are responsible for every single copyright violation on the platform.
@@Veetiful Or they could remove the strike/claim system entirely and force these companies to have to contact the creators directly, and go through normal legal channels.
True, the fact that like anyone can come in and copyright strike videos at any time for any reason is stupid. There should b some like reasonable safeguard in place that goes actually this doesnt break your copyright. Heck it even complies to ur own terms of service
One of the main reasons minecraft is the highest selling game of all time is because they actively incourage and display mods. They even hire mod creators because they know that those people the their biggest fans and provide as much enjoyment to people as the game does by itself. Mc even goes a step further and makes it easier for us to mod their game.
@@sollertiskhan3254 Nintendo is successful because they're a console creator and they make multiple unique games that are only playable on their consoles. If they adopted the technique of embracing the community rather than treating them only as end-users, I think they'd benefit a lot.
Charlie getting jumpscared by his cat is fantastic bc back in the day his whole thing was playing horror games with absolutely no scare reaction whatsoever
@@mariustan9275 he played mods. He didnt make or distribute them. He just played them, and almost got his channel deleted, which is his job, so that would have been horrible
The reason they are so protective of their ip is because of what happened between them with donkey kong and king cong when the company was young. tldr: the owners of king kong sued nintendo to get a piece of the donkey kong pie and they ended up losing the rights to king kong, seeing this massive company lose a big ip like king cong due to donkey kong basically scared nintendo for life and scares them into being SUPER protective of their ips in order to keep anything like that from happening to them. its fucked up ofc but there is a reason
Well, that's the thing. The concept of King Kong isn't owned, he was in the public domain. However, the film rights was separated in two during the creation of a King Kong movie in 1974: Universal and Paramount. Universal wanted to make their own Kong film and because Paramount had the right, they proved in court that King Kong was meant to be in the public domain due to the novelization of the 1933 original movie. They did win that suit, though four years after the 1976 movie released, they tried to sue Nintendo because their Donkey Kong "looked like" King Kong. Needless to say, Universal lost that suit when Nintendo used the 1970's suit to show that their argument was invalid.
@justingovas415 Not really. There's more stuff too. Pokemon and Mario are some of the biggest grossing franchises, heck Pokemon is THE largest. It beats our Mickey Mouse. And despite owning these, they don' have the same level of capital like Microsoft or Disney to defend their IPs if they get lost. Imagine it like this: a Japanese immigrants has just arrived in America. He's new, speaks decent English and can run his small store and make a decent profit. He faces some challenges running it and some racism but overall manages. Then one day it's discovered the land he owns is on top of an enormous oil reserve, worth millions maybe billions of dollars. Word gets out and suddenly much larger companies start showing up, trying to get the immigrant to sign over his land in some scam deal because he is unfamiliar with English. The immigrants fiercely defends his ownership but has nowhere near the corporate power of all these giants, and a bunch of smaller companies and people are trying to get a piece of the pie too. Suddenly aome of the immigrants own neighbour's start trying to take his cash. This is essentially Nintendo's position. They have some of the world's most valuable IPs, and other larger and smaller companies are constantly trying to find some mistake to exploit to take their IPs. They constantly have to be defensive about what they do in case they lose the thing that keeps them relevant. Like, Microsoft is not only a gaming company behind Xbox but also a general computer company that makes things lots Microsoft Word and PowerPoint. Disney has been in this industry for much longer than Nintendo has. Despite how bug Nintendo is, other companies are much bigger.
from what i’ve heard the NOA in-house members are treated well, but outsourced/contracted devs get shafted. there’s some articles online about this if you’re interested. dunno about NOJ but I imagine it’s probably similar.
Nope its more like: 'Buy our games and have fun THE WAY WE THINK ITS PROPER...oh...and dont share it in the internet...or we sue you...btw, buy 3 Switch in diferent collors too...and Pokemon games that are shit filled with bugs...ignore the problems! We are family safe and friendly!'
More often then you think, sadly enough. This is HARDLY the first time they alone have done this, and it has been a thing in every medium of art, work, and religion since the Dawn of man. It’s why we use the term “Never meet your heroes” because most of the time, you are going to get disappointed
@@azurequill3851 bro pulling out religion and work out of the blue. This is just bad corporate behavior, that appeared in the XX age. It isnt that deep lmao
lol well theres a difference between enjoying a game and making money off somebody's product. Probably all this is cause of the new release and so that people wont monetize its gameplay. Its super greedy but also eh it is their product anyways. Its not like we dont know where they stand on people making money off their ip. You want the content you buy the game. Maybe nintendo should lease rights to stream cause streamers are free marketing. okay upon watching a bit of pc's vid its dumb if he followed their guidelines. Extra greedy. But alas...point stands.
It must be scary for point crow and other content creators who focus on nintendo, in a blink of a eye they could just lose their whole caraer for nothing.
There was a very old Mario letsplayer in the Y2K era of CZcams. Just some honest to goodness guy trying to play games, he released 3-4 hour passion projects doing nothing more then slamming over and over how much he loved their products. His name was lost to time and memory, but JUST after he hit 500K (huge deal back then) they had threatened to sue him for the fact he had ad services in his video. Had a huge teary eye “goodbye” message the day before his deadline to delete his channel, only for it to be the only copyright struck video he ever had, so they censored a guy’s explanation of why they were taking him down.
2 strikes off rip, 0 warnings?? how is that even allowed??? theoretically they could just file a third and take down his entire account out of pure spite without ever bothering to talk to him about it
@@fabiol.720 PointCrow does say in his video that he can't afford to incase he loses as it basically ruins his life along with everyone that helps out with his channels. He is just extremely nervous about doing it and I don't blame him.

Nintendo punishing Pointcrow for enjoying their games is the equivalent of Disney suing a family for putting Spider-man on their deceased child's grave
That's actually a real thing, but with Winnie the Pooh instead... _(no, i'm not kidding it's a real case and that's the part that i can only perceive as frightening, it's not even the worst thing they've ever done, that's just a tip on this ''Dark Company Rabbit Hole'' that it goes on and on the more you dug in)_

It still pisses me off that Nintendo refuses to release any of their music, but then also gets mad when people download it illegally.....like what am I supposed to do?
What they want you to do is access the music only through their official pipeline, which is buying their games. Then, and only then, can you hear their music.
I think Nintendo started putting music on CZcams, cashing in over the channels they shut down. Edit: I might be wrong but I swear I saw them upload it somewhere.
Nintendo is the Disney of the video game industry. I'm surprised they haven't sued a daycare for using Mario wallpaper yet. (Which is literally something Disney did some time ago, they sued a daycare for using official Mickey Mouse wallpaper that was bought from a Disney theme park.)
@@Microwave_Dave "then" is still perfectly acceptable in the confines of the sentence. Some people also use both terms interchangeable for some reason.
@@Sir.Slayer It actually is incorrect, grammatically speaking, but f*ck people who scroll through the comments just to correct people on their grammar. It is a CZcams comment, not an essay.
I used to like PointCrow until he had that silly spat with Smallant1 of which I believe he is in the wrong and I don't think he's apologized for it yet
cause charlies content is mainly nintendo. if pointcrow says one more thing to piss them off they could even sue him or take doen his all income just for the lolz
pay attention to pointcrow's situation here, hes been checkmate'd by nintendo , and all it takes is for pointcrow to say something mild for nintendo to put his carrer out of its misery.
A lot of Japanese media companies see modification of a game or movie or series or whatever in any way (or even just enjoying content in the "wrong" way) to be offensive and disrespectful to the people who made it. They're wrong, but that seems to be the source of their intense, vicious hatred of people who like fun.
The ironic thing is that they're probably the same people who scream bloody murder when people demand they follow their countries law. For instance credit cark companies going after things like Pixiv.
Apparently, according to PointCrow himself in his tweet, the copyright strikes (4 of them) were by Nintendo Japan while the copyright claim (multiple) were by Nintendo America.
Considering these are the same people who think something simple as tipping a server at a restaurant is disrespectful, this really shouldn’t be surprising. Edit: Not sure why people think I’m “an American for thinking that it’s silly to not tip someone.” I never once said it was normal to tip someone, I just find it a little odd that tipping someone is disrespectful especially since you’re basically giving them money for doing a good job. Also not sure why people think I’m an American in the first place.
@@ShockInazuma tbf I’m pretty sure they have a living wage and don’t need to rely on tips like some other countries. I could be wrong though, probably am.
@@MizuGaming The relevant authority is The United States, but even so your point is wrong. Japan has a number of laws that allow you to use copyright works in ways that could be interpreted as "fair use".
fair use is only good with premission and if the owner says no you can't use it. hacking a game to mod it is not allowed, in japan he would be in prison.
Nintendo: We don’t understand why people keep pirating our games. Also Nintendo: We don’t encourage any online content whatsoever and will go after anyone who even shares a blurry image of our products! Nintendo: We still don’t understand why people prefer to pirate our games instead of buying them. We’re so nice.
As Gaben said, "piracy is a service issue." Nintendo makes it such a pain in the fucking ass to play their older games, especially Virtual Console games, that piracy is way more appealing. Nobody wants to buy every retro game again when a new Nintendo console comes out.
@@CrizzyEyes you cant even buy them anymore, you just borrow them netflix style by paying for what is literally and i do mean literally THE worst online service to ever exist (its 2023 and all their shit is still peer to peer with crap netcode and the lowest tickrates on any multiplayer games)
Honestly, I think when games are not being officialy sold anymore for a set amount of years, they should be free game (excuse my pun). This puts the people who made them in a spot where they either provide them for sale if they care, or allow all the people to enjoy them for free if they don't care.
I always thought Nintendo was stingy with their own IP. It’s so stupid how they discontinue various older services, like the Wii shop and the Network the WiiU and 3DS ran on. It really pisses me off they got rid of the multiplayer Mario 30 game.
PointCrow has made a point IN STREAMS to state that he doesn't give out instructions on how to mod the game or where to source mods from specifically because it could be seen as him encouraging it by Nintendo, he's been as careful as he can and puts so much heart into his videos. You can see the insane amount of love he has for this game.
@@manthacake7881 modded Zelda is something you play on a pc. Zelda on pc is free. In a way he’s marketing the pirating of the game. You gotta look at it from Nintendo’s standpoint.
@@incius8341 with totk right around the corner he is basically letting a massive part of the community know how easy it would be to pirate their newest game. You’re looking at this with a very simple mind.
Never forget that Nintendo's official stance is that Pokemon Nuzlockes are the exact same as piracy. Using a self-imposed ruleset in an unmodified copy of the game purchased at their retail stores is considered illegal.
@@TheFuriousNightFury Content creators on the official Pokemon channel suggested doing a nuzlocke playthrough and the official response they were given wasa hard no and specifically that nuzlockes are considered the same as piracy.
The way nintendo runs their company is honestly so confusing to me sometimes because they will take down videos of unmodified gameplay, but other bigger channels will be using an emulator to run their games (meaning you don't need any nintendo merchandise to play their games) and nintendo will do nothing about it.
At this point, anyone who has suffered financial loss due to nintendo flagging FAIR USE content need to band together to form a class action lawsuit against them. They need to be taught a lesson + it would create precedent!!!
The best legal team in the world can only go so far. I can’t imagine how they would go about twisting the situation in order to justify their behavior. If this isn’t considered fair use, what is? There are bound to be plenty of precedences that would make ruling in favor of Nintendo impossible.
Trash Taste said it best, unless you’re Japanese and physically present in a top Japanese company’s meeting room, they won’t even consider you worth their time.
It's pervasive even down to the game designers. Sakurai famously said he doesn't want to make another story-based game while it's still possible to upload the cutscenes to CZcams, because he was _pissed_ when that happened to Brawl: Subspace Emissary
Japanese gaming company's are almost always shit. Only one with any integrity is Fromsoft, Japanese business men are some of the scummiest people imaginable.
Sadly, a lot of this comes down to Japanese companies just having garbage legal policies. They're very protective of their IPs even to the point of screwing over the passionate creators who actually make those IPs. If you're in the west then good luck ever getting their attention. It's unfortunately a situation that won't change unless somehow a lot of people at Nintendo decide they want to have a soul. But sadly the only people that do are the game devs themselves and there's nothing they can do to change the legal teams.
@@hatti... Even the game devs can get infected with it. Well, the top-level project leads. Remember when Sakurai got really mad after Smash Bros. Brawl released and he learned that CZcams existed? And vowed he would never make story cutscenes again because of it
@TARINunit9 I know. Project leads can end up with this kind of complex as well. It doesn't make them bad necessarily, but it is still something they should be better at. But I mainly speak in favor of the many people credited in those games. People who come to work every day to do their little part of the job, working long hours to make sure everything is perfect. Like you said Sakurai isn't entirely innocent but i think he at least gets a pass for bringing his vision to fruition. It doesn't excuse the pettiness of the brawl situation though. Even Miyamoto, beloved for his creations, has acted petty many times and actively went against having a good story in a lot of games. But the guys who really dedicate all their time and effort to making something good have my respect. Hopefully if Yoshiaki Koizumi becomes CEO of Nintendo someday he'll make it better, because he's responsible for a lot of great things the company has done, even going against what higher-ups want at times, sneaking things into games that end up being responsible for said games being beloved.
7:55 For years the Pokemon Community has suffered from shit like this, yes we enjoy the vanilla base game of Firered but some of the mods and Romhacks that have come out are amazing.
@chris sumner I don't think you understand the legality of these things. Theses creators are completely in the right even by nintendos own rules but yet they do this anyway.
There's so much genuine filth on this platform that kids could watch-- PointCrowe is genuinely one of the wholesome video game content creators. The fact that Nintendo/CZcams go after him is honestly giving me second hand embarrassment.

I'll immediately get flack from this comment alone, but there is hope that Nintendo listens to their fans. Here's what they have done: - removed the terrible loot box system in Mario Kart Tour - made some patches in Scarlet & Violet after receiving a ton of criticism - improved the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe DLC with the textures I think saying that they never listen to fans is pretty stupid, and it seems that you never look at the bright side. And no, I am not a Nintendo fanboy because I also agree that Nintendo taking down PointCrow's Zelda content even when they're completely within fair use is an L move.
@@pyroflare7774 I heard about that issue, and it's pretty scary. Let's just hope they'll later fix the bugs left out in the game instead of just jumping to conclusions.
It's so funny because nothing has made me want to play a game more than watching a video on it. I got dark souls over 10 years ago because I saw a video of a guy walk up the asylum steps and get rolled over by a ball, which smashes through the wall and allows him to talk to an npc. I was like "wow how interesting, I wanna play that game" It's free advertisement
Yeah, it's not hard to find Switch games online and just play on PC. Bonus: you can play with a decent controller vs the default Switch. I wouldn't encourage pirating their games, but if a company is going out of their way to break fair use laws themselves and abuse the spirit of it and copyright laws, then screw it. They don't want our money? Fine. I'll still play their games.

Honestly their games are okay. But it's better to stop buying them. Let Nintendo sink and it would be better for all gaming. If devs stopped making games for Nintendo we would all be better off.
buy secondhand games instead. that would at least contribute a bit to not giving nintendo any monetary support.
@@JamieZero7 ...but many of us need new Mario, Donkey Kong, The Legend of Zelda, etc. video games! How about letting Nintendo, *_itself,_* sink but keep the Mario, Donkey Kong, The Legend of Zelda, etc. video game franchises alive there?
I feel like that that's just Nintendo fans in general. Sometimes I get so irritated at the company and will just start ranting and my family gets confused because I love these games and I usually reply with something along the lines of "I'm a fan of the games not the company."
@@EarthDraco I hear ya. I'm the same way. Makes me happy to know that I'm not alone on this.
I know the exact reason they gave him 2 strikes. I recently learned that if you get a strike on your channel and appeal it but lose, you can get ANOTHER strike for “lying”, which would make that strike 3 on his channel and it would get him banned. It’s a scare tactic to keep people from making appeals. MXR Plays and TwoSetViolin are some classic examples and explained it in a few videos.
Evil.
"Nobody hates Nintendo fans more then Nintendo" is probably one of the most accurate statements on Nintendo. It's like they hate free advertisements and traction through word of mouth. Hopefully they get better in the future.
They won't in the near future and never will in the far future. Japanese companies will NEVER understand fair use and will ALWAYS believe their retarded laws from their island apply to the whole world. Over there there is no such thing as fair use.
They would rather disappear the product entirely off the Internet and make it nearly impossible to purchase is legally if it means it cannot be distributed, even officially, on the Internet.
For examples just look at some music for openings and endings for some anime. If for some reason the only version of it you can find is one where the sound is slightly wrong or it sounds slightly faster or slowed down, that's because that record company went nuclear with anyone uploading that music and refuses to upload official versions of it on the Internet.
And if you would want to buy just that one tune to listen to it? Too bad either only in Japan or you have to buy the ENTIRE album with music you don't want to get it. And because of this they enable dodgy places to sell things like that because you know JAPAN LOGIC.
If your CZcams content is exclusively content from one Japanese company or you have content that comes from one here and there you have to always be ready for it to go NUCLEAR at random at any given time of They just so happen to change a CEO and that new guy is a complete clueless lunatic.
Treat content from those companies as always live nuclear volcanos. How people haven't learned this already by now where every company from Japan has done shit like this and some like Nintendo have been repeat offenders with multiple counts, I will never understand.😮
Sadly it might not happen
@Jay Talents No bro. That's only them damaged hoes you been messing with that are more likely to love people that don't love them back. Yaknow. People with issues.
Normal people don't love those that don't love them back.
@Jay Talents it's sad really, it's been a huge trend to get completetly attached to childhood games or movies and not see the absolute evil in the company. People just turn the blind eye because the games remind them of better times that they are for some reason unable to get now.

Fun fact: Back in the Wii U days, when I had an active channel, I got contacted by Nintendo Switzerland about a partnership. They'd send me a Wii U console with two games to advertise in CZcams videos. A week after posting the first video, it was striked by Nintendo. Once I got back to Nintendo Switzerland they told me that there was nothing they could do. So I basically got a Nintendo Wii U for free 🤣
That’s insane and stupid lmao
What the hell is even going on at Nintendo that there's not even any communication in between branches?

It's mind boggling how much Japanese companies hate the internet and refuse to learn how to really utilize it
SEGA loves when people mod their content and happily accepted ocs in their game Sonic Forces. There was also a case where SEGA personally stepped in and took down a Sonic game because the owner was a pedo, never touched any other game just that one.
Don't lump SEGA in with the dumpster fire that is Nintendo.

@@incurableraven4960 scummy? The people doing that were scummy? Nah, with the attitude Nintendo has shown their devout fans of their games like how Charlie said it almost like they hate us, they deserved that, let it get under their skin and bother them because they deserve that kind of disrespect being thrown at them, especially with Nintendo putting people's livelihoods in jeopardy for such small things. So this is really what they had coming to them as pushback from the people they owe their success to.
@@joel3683I think raven meant Nintendo was scummy, likely understood the situation as “hey show us where people uploaded our music so we can copyright strike them”

Nintendo is like if you went to an art museum with a sign that said “photos allowed” and then try to have you arrested if you have a camera.
They didnt say cameras were okay, thats how they get you
Like a kid who gives their toy away just to get jealous about how much fun someone else is having with it lmao
Because "photos allowed" to them means "photos to be displayed in this museum are allowed to be on display in this _art_ museum", in other words, an ambiguous "photos allowed"
No it's like if they said "cameras allowed but do not draw on the paintings" and then you draw on one of the paintings and take pictures and then take pictures of a bunch of other things too, and then they come and take your camera and you cry because "not all of your pictures were of paintings you drew on".

Charlie the unshakable getting spooked by his cat was funny to me.
I think the bigger problem here is CZcams allowing companies to abuse its copyright system in the first place
CZcams allows companies to abuse its system because they're fed up being sued for billions of dollars in lawsuits so they just said fk it. So now they just sit behind DMCA safe harbor laws and say "if you have a problem with your strikes, take them to court" well I want to start seeing them dragged into court.
It's either this or no youtube. The moment youtube has an opinion on copyright, they are responsible for every single copyright violation on the platform.
@@Veetiful Or they could remove the strike/claim system entirely and force these companies to have to contact the creators directly, and go through normal legal channels.
True, the fact that like anyone can come in and copyright strike videos at any time for any reason is stupid. There should b some like reasonable safeguard in place that goes actually this doesnt break your copyright. Heck it even complies to ur own terms of service
This is something that needs to change. It’s gonna get worst for all sorts of companies if CZcams don’t do something about it
One of the main reasons minecraft is the highest selling game of all time is because they actively incourage and display mods. They even hire mod creators because they know that those people the their biggest fans and provide as much enjoyment to people as the game does by itself. Mc even goes a step further and makes it easier for us to mod their game.
👏👏👏
True.. but that doesn't mean you can't be wildly successful without that game plan. After all Nintendo is extremely successful.
@@sollertiskhan3254 Nintendo is successful because they're a console creator and they make multiple unique games that are only playable on their consoles. If they adopted the technique of embracing the community rather than treating them only as end-users, I think they'd benefit a lot.

@@mariustan9275 he played mods. He didnt make or distribute them. He just played them, and almost got his channel deleted, which is his job, so that would have been horrible
The reason they are so protective of their ip is because of what happened between them with donkey kong and king cong when the company was young. tldr: the owners of king kong sued nintendo to get a piece of the donkey kong pie and they ended up losing the rights to king kong, seeing this massive company lose a big ip like king cong due to donkey kong basically scared nintendo for life and scares them into being SUPER protective of their ips in order to keep anything like that from happening to them. its fucked up ofc but there is a reason
Well, that's the thing. The concept of King Kong isn't owned, he was in the public domain. However, the film rights was separated in two during the creation of a King Kong movie in 1974: Universal and Paramount. Universal wanted to make their own Kong film and because Paramount had the right, they proved in court that King Kong was meant to be in the public domain due to the novelization of the 1933 original movie. They did win that suit, though four years after the 1976 movie released, they tried to sue Nintendo because their Donkey Kong "looked like" King Kong. Needless to say, Universal lost that suit when Nintendo used the 1970's suit to show that their argument was invalid.
It's all a load of bs. Nintendos just power hungry and greedy.
@@justingovas415 yes but thats why. this fear is baked into the company.
@justingovas415 Not really. There's more stuff too. Pokemon and Mario are some of the biggest grossing franchises, heck Pokemon is THE largest. It beats our Mickey Mouse. And despite owning these, they don' have the same level of capital like Microsoft or Disney to defend their IPs if they get lost. Imagine it like this: a Japanese immigrants has just arrived in America. He's new, speaks decent English and can run his small store and make a decent profit. He faces some challenges running it and some racism but overall manages. Then one day it's discovered the land he owns is on top of an enormous oil reserve, worth millions maybe billions of dollars. Word gets out and suddenly much larger companies start showing up, trying to get the immigrant to sign over his land in some scam deal because he is unfamiliar with English. The immigrants fiercely defends his ownership but has nowhere near the corporate power of all these giants, and a bunch of smaller companies and people are trying to get a piece of the pie too. Suddenly aome of the immigrants own neighbour's start trying to take his cash.
This is essentially Nintendo's position. They have some of the world's most valuable IPs, and other larger and smaller companies are constantly trying to find some mistake to exploit to take their IPs. They constantly have to be defensive about what they do in case they lose the thing that keeps them relevant. Like, Microsoft is not only a gaming company behind Xbox but also a general computer company that makes things lots Microsoft Word and PowerPoint. Disney has been in this industry for much longer than Nintendo has. Despite how bug Nintendo is, other companies are much bigger.
Nintendo viewing their Biggest fans as their Enemies is hilarious and I totally Agree

A lot of Japanese media companies see modification of a game or movie or series or whatever in any way (or even just enjoying content in the "wrong" way) to be offensive and disrespectful to the people who made it. They're wrong, but that seems to be the source of their intense, vicious hatred of people who like fun.
The ironic thing is that they're probably the same people who scream bloody murder when people demand they follow their countries law. For instance credit cark companies going after things like Pixiv.
Apparently, according to PointCrow himself in his tweet, the copyright strikes (4 of them) were by Nintendo Japan while the copyright claim (multiple) were by Nintendo America.
Considering these are the same people who think something simple as tipping a server at a restaurant is disrespectful, this really shouldn’t be surprising.
Edit: Not sure why people think I’m “an American for thinking that it’s silly to not tip someone.” I never once said it was normal to tip someone, I just find it a little odd that tipping someone is disrespectful especially since you’re basically giving them money for doing a good job. Also not sure why people think I’m an American in the first place.

The cat jumpscare was fire 😂😂😂😂
This is just further proof that copyright abuse is a massive problem, and companies clearly don't give two tosses about Fair Use.
Japan doesn’t have fair use
@@MizuGaming But CZcams is based in the US, which does. Any claims are made under US law
@@MizuGaming The relevant authority is The United States, but even so your point is wrong. Japan has a number of laws that allow you to use copyright works in ways that could be interpreted as "fair use".
fair use is only good with premission and if the owner says no you can't use it. hacking a game to mod it is not allowed, in japan he would be in prison.
@@channelofstuff6662 The hell do you mean hacking a game to mod it is not allowed? There's absolutely no way that's illegal in Japan.
Nintendo: We don’t understand why people keep pirating our games.
Also Nintendo: We don’t encourage any online content whatsoever and will go after anyone who even shares a blurry image of our products!
Nintendo: We still don’t understand why people prefer to pirate our games instead of buying them. We’re so nice.
As Gaben said, "piracy is a service issue." Nintendo makes it such a pain in the fucking ass to play their older games, especially Virtual Console games, that piracy is way more appealing. Nobody wants to buy every retro game again when a new Nintendo console comes out.
@@CrizzyEyes you cant even buy them anymore, you just borrow them netflix style by paying for what is literally and i do mean literally THE worst online service to ever exist (its 2023 and all their shit is still peer to peer with crap netcode and the lowest tickrates on any multiplayer games)
It's never morally wrong to pirate Nintendo products.
Remember, its not okay to pirate, unless its EA or Nintendo
Honestly, I think when games are not being officialy sold anymore for a set amount of years, they should be free game (excuse my pun). This puts the people who made them in a spot where they either provide them for sale if they care, or allow all the people to enjoy them for free if they don't care.
I always thought Nintendo was stingy with their own IP. It’s so stupid how they discontinue various older services, like the Wii shop and the Network the WiiU and 3DS ran on. It really pisses me off they got rid of the multiplayer Mario 30 game.

PointCrow has made a point IN STREAMS to state that he doesn't give out instructions on how to mod the game or where to source mods from specifically because it could be seen as him encouraging it by Nintendo, he's been as careful as he can and puts so much heart into his videos. You can see the insane amount of love he has for this game.
It’s definitely the encouragement. Basically telling his audience how easy it is if he can do it infront of millions. Honestly I understand Nintendo.
@E oh, God! The abject horror if a user mods a single-player game that they've already bought and paid for! What a tragedy!!! 🙄
@@manthacake7881 modded Zelda is something you play on a pc. Zelda on pc is free. In a way he’s marketing the pirating of the game. You gotta look at it from Nintendo’s standpoint.
@@user-sq3fh2jx4b I too like to side with billionaires.
@@incius8341 with totk right around the corner he is basically letting a massive part of the community know how easy it would be to pirate their newest game. You’re looking at this with a very simple mind.
Never forget that Nintendo's official stance is that Pokemon Nuzlockes are the exact same as piracy. Using a self-imposed ruleset in an unmodified copy of the game purchased at their retail stores is considered illegal.
This feels incorrect but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised they really do hate us playing their games any different way
@@TheFuriousNightFury Content creators on the official Pokemon channel suggested doing a nuzlocke playthrough and the official response they were given wasa hard no and specifically that nuzlockes are considered the same as piracy.
@@Blurillaz source?
Could you source it? I believe you but at the same time don’t want to believe you no offense
sucks for them since its mine now
You aren’t wrong. Nintendo would destroy an Italian orphanage if there was a kid named Luigi who lived there.
The way nintendo runs their company is honestly so confusing to me sometimes because they will take down videos of unmodified gameplay, but other bigger channels will be using an emulator to run their games (meaning you don't need any nintendo merchandise to play their games) and nintendo will do nothing about it.
At this point, anyone who has suffered financial loss due to nintendo flagging FAIR USE content need to band together to form a class action lawsuit against them. They need to be taught a lesson + it would create precedent!!!
It's nintendos lawyers doing this, and that law firm is the same one disney uses. good luck trying to sue them
@@noahkrause2835 Well if enough people were making a fuss I'm sure something could be done.
they ain’t winning lmfao, would be nice though maybe nintendo could realize that their fans aren’t that bad lmao
bro nintendo is unstoppable, the best legal team you could afford is no match for that giant
The best legal team in the world can only go so far. I can’t imagine how they would go about twisting the situation in order to justify their behavior. If this isn’t considered fair use, what is? There are bound to be plenty of precedences that would make ruling in favor of Nintendo impossible.
Trash Taste said it best, unless you’re Japanese and physically present in a top Japanese company’s meeting room, they won’t even consider you worth their time.
It's pervasive even down to the game designers. Sakurai famously said he doesn't want to make another story-based game while it's still possible to upload the cutscenes to CZcams, because he was _pissed_ when that happened to Brawl: Subspace Emissary
Japanese gaming company's are almost always shit. Only one with any integrity is Fromsoft, Japanese business men are some of the scummiest people imaginable.
Sadly, a lot of this comes down to Japanese companies just having garbage legal policies. They're very protective of their IPs even to the point of screwing over the passionate creators who actually make those IPs. If you're in the west then good luck ever getting their attention. It's unfortunately a situation that won't change unless somehow a lot of people at Nintendo decide they want to have a soul. But sadly the only people that do are the game devs themselves and there's nothing they can do to change the legal teams.
@@hatti... Even the game devs can get infected with it. Well, the top-level project leads. Remember when Sakurai got really mad after Smash Bros. Brawl released and he learned that CZcams existed? And vowed he would never make story cutscenes again because of it
@TARINunit9 I know. Project leads can end up with this kind of complex as well. It doesn't make them bad necessarily, but it is still something they should be better at. But I mainly speak in favor of the many people credited in those games. People who come to work every day to do their little part of the job, working long hours to make sure everything is perfect. Like you said Sakurai isn't entirely innocent but i think he at least gets a pass for bringing his vision to fruition. It doesn't excuse the pettiness of the brawl situation though. Even Miyamoto, beloved for his creations, has acted petty many times and actively went against having a good story in a lot of games. But the guys who really dedicate all their time and effort to making something good have my respect. Hopefully if Yoshiaki Koizumi becomes CEO of Nintendo someday he'll make it better, because he's responsible for a lot of great things the company has done, even going against what higher-ups want at times, sneaking things into games that end up being responsible for said games being beloved.
7:55 For years the Pokemon Community has suffered from shit like this, yes we enjoy the vanilla base game of Firered but some of the mods and Romhacks that have come out are amazing.
Nintendo themselves promoting pirating with this kind of behavior
It's not just Pointcrow, it's a bunch of other creators too, modded content or not. It's unreal, they haven't been doing this to this level in years
Maybe they just woke up from their ketamine binge.
People are making a living off content they don't own, they went too far.
@@chrissumner8172 lol no
@chris sumner I don't think you understand the legality of these things. Theses creators are completely in the right even by nintendos own rules but yet they do this anyway.
@@chrissumner8172 bro Nintendo isn’t going to suck your dick for defending them
There's so much genuine filth on this platform that kids could watch-- PointCrowe is genuinely one of the wholesome video game content creators. The fact that Nintendo/CZcams go after him is honestly giving me second hand embarrassment.

LOL I can hear this comment
It's true how unresponsive Nintendo is . They literally don't talk to anyone unless they coming to ruin your life
I'll immediately get flack from this comment alone, but there is hope that Nintendo listens to their fans.
Here's what they have done:
- removed the terrible loot box system in Mario Kart Tour
- made some patches in Scarlet & Violet after receiving a ton of criticism
- improved the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe DLC with the textures
I think saying that they never listen to fans is pretty stupid, and it seems that you never look at the bright side. And no, I am not a Nintendo fanboy because I also agree that Nintendo taking down PointCrow's Zelda content even when they're completely within fair use is an L move.

I heard about that issue, and it's pretty scary. Let's just hope they'll later fix the bugs left out in the game instead of just jumping to conclusions.
@@PT_926 Scarlet and Violet isn't fixed at all though. The patches were pretty minor.
It's so funny because nothing has made me want to play a game more than watching a video on it. I got dark souls over 10 years ago because I saw a video of a guy walk up the asylum steps and get rolled over by a ball, which smashes through the wall and allows him to talk to an npc.

One word that will always make Nintendo shiver down their spine: Emulation
Nintendo and adobe, the two companies I have no qualms with pirating
Yeah, it's not hard to find Switch games online and just play on PC. Bonus: you can play with a decent controller vs the default Switch.
I wouldn't encourage pirating their games, but if a company is going out of their way to break fair use laws themselves and abuse the spirit of it and copyright laws, then screw it. They don't want our money? Fine. I'll still play their games.
Not exactly.
They emulate their products to sell to people.
Granted, they are not the only company to do as such.
nintendo: YOU CAN'T EMULATE THAT'S STEALING AND MEAN!
chad: you aren't making money off this game anymore if you released it on virtual console i'd happily pay.
nintendo: NO, NO, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Always pirate games that are no longer sold.
It is the morally correct choice to do.
