June 20th everyone

I really hope it gets ported

@Geonjaha
I don't think it was a smart move but people are getting upset over a company wanting to make money off of the company's copyrighted material by making money off of these Let's Plays.

@Geonjaha
Well I am defending Nintendo because they have every right to do this or worst to take down those Videos. I don't think it is a smart idea for Nintendo to do this but they are well within their rights, plus they are still letting people do them. Nintendo isn't stopping them or removing their videos.

@Geonjaha
I don't think anyone is saying this is a good idea.

@HugoSmith
New reporters and reviewers are allowed to use a minimum amount of content to express their point under Fair Use. LPers are not reporting news (although they may talk about recent news, they are not reporting it), they are not reviewing the game (although they may give their opinion about the game it is not a review), what LPers are doing is using copyrighted material to create entertainment and making money off of it, which is illegal unless they are given permission to use those assets. Nintendo has a right to make money off of their created assets that they have copyrighted.

@HugoSmits
The fact remains that LPers sre using content that is copyrighted to make money which is illegal. There is no getting around that. Rather than shutting down LPers, Nintendo is trying to make money (just like when Disney paid Nintendo to used Bowser in Wreak it Ralph)

@WaxxtOne
How many LPers are "promoting" Nintendo. Nintendo is not doing that well in the eyes of many uneducated gamers. This move could stop the people that are bashing on Nintendo Products just because they are Nintendo. If people are demanding Nintendo Games in Let's Pays then LPers will do them, Supply and Demand. Why should these people get to use any product however they wish without permission of the Content Owners/Creators and make money off of those product's contents? Nintendo isn't stopping people from making money off Let's Plays, Nintendo is wanting their share (which in some caes will be all the profits) for providing the content the Let's Play is about. What is wrong about that?

@WaxxyOne
I think they encouraging people to make them by saying we aren't going to take your video down if you make one. It is almost like a promise that Nintendo won't mess with your creativity. They are only asking that if you make money off of the videos shouldn't Nintendo for creating the game the video is displaying?

@HugoSmits
It is the same idea if I took screen shots of a movie to make a comic strip series to make money off of. I am not giving the viewer the same experience but I am using assets that are copyrighted for profit. Under Fair use Nintendo Life is able to use some assets from Nintendo Products to critic Video Games. Many Let's Plays do not critic games but just make fun of them or to guide players through the game. I don't have a problem with what Nintendo is doing because they aren't even removing the videos, which they have the right to do.

Nintendo isn't taking down videos so the marketing excuse is null. It won't affect videos of people that have been granted the rights to use the license for the game. The only problem I see is that people will now have to watch ads about Nintendo games while watching a Let's Play of a Nintendo game... if anything that is a great Marketing idea: this person is interested in New Super Mario Bros. U well why don't we show this person a 3D Mario ad

If I buy Super Mario World today do I still get the Super Mario Bros. 2 discount?

I think people just like to pretend he is a bad guy. I don't think people actually think he is bad

I wonder how you will be able to share levels, through miiverse or just a global share function?

I want to see more titles on kickstarter support consoles. There are plenty of projects I would support if they announced Wii U or 3DS support.

@Donjwolf

Totally agree, I wish I could find a history of how all my games sold, not just the ones that are currently on the market.

This does seem like a waste of time. All games are developed with the idea that players are holding a duel analog stick controller. This just seems like a waste of money

I love the Mario vs Donkey Kong series. I will be picking this up ASAP

3rd Party thinks Wii U doesn't sell well, so they support it less, so 3rd Party doesn't sell well, so they support it less. It is a cycle. Nintendo needs to help out but also if a 3rd Party supports the Wii U fully then I will purchase the game. 3rd Party needs to realize that the Wii U will be around for awhile, they can make more money off the Wii U over time than the 360 or PS3 which will be replaced by the end of the year.

I already have Mario RPG so I got Excitebike on my 3DS, was thinking of getting it on Wii U but can't beat getting the 3DS version for free.

I was actually confused thinking Ubisoft was involved some how. Now it is clear

I would rather see Gotham City Impostors 2, the first was such a fun game.

I am glad they understand that a lot of their backers wanted it for Wii U and they are going to try to support it, even if the Wii U version misses the initial release date

Both look interesting but I would like to see a video

It reminds me of A Boy and His Blob. A young boy goes on a great adventure about exploration with his best friend

I wonder if this is why Video Games Live isn't doing an E3 show. Destroys my favorite tradition with my friends. For the past 4 years my friends and I have gone to each E3 Video Games Live show...

I hope a Dev Kit gets dropped off at Bungie and Destiny comes to Wii U

I was going to get this just to see if it was as bad as everyone was saying

Nintendo needs to show not only consumers how to use the system but developers as well

I have the first on my 3DS Virtual Console. Such a hard game. I am thinking this might be easier just because you don't have to manage an inventory.

I wonder if for the 3DS's two year birthday if they will finally announce the Ambassador games will be available for purchase in the near future?

Limited Hard Drive space keeps me from doing retail downloads. I did get a 32 gb sd card for my 3ds just for Animal Crossing

"current-gen consoles"... so where is the Wii announcement

I wonder how many games these figures will be used in

I wish Monster was working on a new Excitebots

Are any of these actually a reboot?

They might be trying to make the WiiU version better. I still want this game because I believe in playing a game before I determine if it is bad or not. Hopefully it will come out.

When will this happen in NA?
We are still waiting for Zen Pinball 2...

Is Eevee finally getting a normal type evolution?

Well I would love to see both Rising Revengeance and Ground Zero for Wii U. Even if the only special thing about them on Wii U is off-tv play

I wonder if we could get DLC for this game later? I felt some gameplay mechanics weren't flushed out as much as they could be, also I bet there are loads more of game mechanics that could be introduced.

I would back it if it was for sure coming out on WiiU, but I don't have a gaming computer really so I will just sit here and hope.

I will be getting it, if my wallet allows it

I would love to see the new remake of Dementium 2 come to WiiU.

Also with Dementium 2 coming to PC soon it might lead to Dementium 3D.

http://www.dementium2.com/

I think this is a good sign that it is Dementium 3D. I personally feel if they were making Moon 2 then Multiplayer would be something to look into to.

Please make this happen. I didn't get to play the first. I would totally pay $30 in order to play it on WiiU

I am still waiting to see if Wii VC will transfer into Wii U VC. I don't want to transfer everything then find out A) I still have to play it with a Wii Classic Controller and B) That I still have to hold onto my Wii to play Game Cube games.

Hopefully they price Mutant Mudds 2 better. I felt 9 bucks for the first was a bit expensive when I can get Mighty Switch Force for 6.

There has never been a bad Star Fox game, including Star Fox Adventures. I have enjoyed every Star Fox title for how different they are and celebrate how I have never felt liked I am playing the same game over again, like many current game series.
