Nintendo’s latest attempt to reach out to YouTubers has been ill received.
“F*** you Nintendo,” PewDiePie said of the latest proposal, in which Nintendo would offer video creators between 60-70 per cent of their ad revenues in return for permission to create videos featuring its products.
“What they are missing out on completely is the free exposure and publicity that they get from YouTubers. What better way to sell/market a game, than from watching someone else (that you like) playing it and enjoying themselves?
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Danish from eXputer: "Nintendo has historically gone against player-made content and emulation of its games. This has done much to harm the company's image."
They need to stop announcing these mods and fan remakes until they're finished. Finish it, upload it, and then if Nintendo dmca's it tough shit. Once it's online, people can share it around, even if the original download gets taken down.
This is all coming from the mouth of short-sighted fandom and grifting madness.
No.... it wont. There is a clear defined reason why they don't. This is nothing new. Make your own shi7 from your own original ideas especially if you are trying to capitalize of it it. Duh.
Yeah, hire people that have zero respect or understanding for an established process. Wow. Yep. Totally makes sense.
Youtube "celebs" are the greediest of the bunch, they do everything for a paycheck, anything you can think of that gets the sheep talking, fanboy wars, memes, beauty and hair, let's talk rubbish while we play badly at this game play, COD, give crappy gifts to loyal fans who give you a comfortable living by watching your lame channel all while trying to sell them T shirts with your meme or name on them.
the smallest violin.
I find it hard to agree with Nintendo from what I'm reading here here simply because a number of others allow it and even push for exposure. For example EA the worst game company has this Ronku program that pays extra to the Youtubers on top of what they normally get. I don't understand why Nintendo is trying to get a cut when all these others are simply wanting exposure. I doubt I know the whole story and likely seeing one side.
Meanwhile, as usual the die hard Nintendo fans say its the best thing since apple pie lol hahahah Got to give it to most Nintendo fans they would eat Nintendo s%$t if they sold it as the new amiibo and then say its the best thing lol hahahahahaha
Greedy as Nintendo which is why they sell an underpowered system for an exorbitant price and the price never drops smh. Then they blame it on the conttroller smh
So for all of this, sounds like they're back to square one over let's plays.
I don't know about this guy PewDiePie but his character is retarded, maybe 12 years old will watch that childish way of him.
