Nintendo’s aggressive copyright strikes against YouTube creators like Russ from Retro Game Corps are raising concerns about the future of game preservation. As creators bridge the gap by educating fans about legal retro gaming and emulation, Nintendo’s refusal to embrace these efforts is alienating their fan base. Learn why Nintendo’s control over its legacy content is stifling gaming history and how they could build goodwill by partnering with the retro gaming community instead of shutting them down.
Cultured Vultures: You love the SNES, we love the SNES, so let’s look at the best SNES games ever together.
NVIDIA’s RTX 50 “Blackwell” architecture has been a bit of a bore for us gamers. Apart from Multi Frame Generation, which has limited use-case scenarios, there isn’t much to be excited about. It is achieved using GPU-side Flip Metering. The optical field data is generated using AI models in the Tensor cores.
Who would have thought that giving games away for free would be so lucrative?
Why doesn't YT stand up and say something, they can maybe help with game preservation, because that's the intent. Copyright laws need to change big time, so we as consumers have more rights. At least we can just torrent any rom collection we want very easily, and that is really the only way to go so we can own it. (I have TB's of rom collections 😁)
YT / Nintendo are strange bedfellows while someone like avgn has 20 plus years of content with large portions it's ok because it's mostly original hardware or some weird decision but then mvg has lots of content around emulation how it was achieved or digital Foundry in depth analysis of retro content etc but then channels like those in the article can be targeted there's no rhyme or reason I can find behind it
I don't agree with how Nintendo operates but for the love of god will these Youtubers stop giving Nintendo reach arounds by promoting and buying their products. It is like a sad version of stockholm syndrome. How much clearer do Nintendo have to be, You are not wanted. If you are not happy with Nintendo get together with all the other burned Youtubers and boycott them. Sorry if this seems harsh but this happens on a regular basis with Nintendo and if it was any other company you would be boycotting them, so enough of the double standard moaning.
nintendo needs to chill.
they are the ones gatekeeping their games from us.
