Nintendo ID Claims Youtube LPs
(05-28-2013, 09:26 PM)Mutsukki Wrote: Like I said, I get where you're coming from and I would agree if past cases weren't just the exact opposite of the developers actually profiting from the showcase of their games. It's because you're approaching the issue as "they're making a profit off a bunch of assets they never even contributed to", which is understandable, but not really right. I get that the main issue is the -profit- part of it and really, if it was any other occasion I may have just agreed with your point, it does seem dumb when oversimplifying it. However, I still like to point one single point: They're not charging anyone anything.

Sure, they're charging the user's time by making them view ads, but they're not effectively taking any money off their public, money that can be very well spent on the Nintendo product they're talking about right there. They're not forwarding ANY spending money to them, just rather using the Youtube ad revenue system which allows them to make a profit, make a living off their hard work (which I would think everyone would agree that it's very good). Nintendo IS in their right to do this, but so are the LPers of just not making any Nintendo-based video anymore, and just giving off free publicity to other companies which are okay with this practice. The main point of NOT supporting Nintendo in this action is so that other companies don't follow this anti-consumer example (and so that they may open their eyes to what they're doing). LPs DID start off as done for fun and with no money involved, and it would pretty much stay that way if Youtube didn't have their ad revenue system. Veteran LPers did find it bad that people were profiting over their videos, but as time went on, as nobody's effectively losing money and it does add a bit of income to their lives, they followed the trend. Like I've been saying, I think it's pefrectly fair if they got SOME of the money for their commentary which people enjoy. LPs have a long story by now, it's kinda late for Nintendo to want to change the rules of a game that's been already set. If Ad Revenue for them is invalidated, then, well, there'll be a huge decline of these types of video on the internet, being closed off to a niche group (like it was before) and potentially making people less aware of games they could know about. It's not like LPers have to work for free, they'll just stop producing, and basically everyone will lose in this process.

And like my mom would say,

"E daí "

Money is money. No matter where tey come from, it is making money, it belongs to nintendo

If LPers are complaining about it, they could always do non Nintendo LPs. The world isnt over just because a company did something rightful for them
