Re: YouTuber Ends Metroid Prime Music Covers After Nintendo's Lawyers Call

Bloops

I've always been fairly neutral regarding Nintendo's approach to music and takedowns, but this is just unfair. Fan covers and tributes are morally their own unique form of art, if not appreciation.

I understand there's still an issue with legality, sure, but it's absurd to outright send a cease and desist notice in the context of a few isolated YouTube videos, and like the fine chap said, Nintendo could easily just claim revenue and have it benefit themselves in the process. This sucks!

Re: Random: It Looks Like Masahiro Sakurai's Parody Account On Twitter Has Finally Been Defeated

I have been trying to do a lot of self improvement to get negative language and thoughts out of myself over the past year, but I will wilfully break that to say the donny who ran that account was a monumental bellend. It makes me a bit sad that the account wasn't suspended and has the possibility to be reactivated in the next month or so, this honestly could just be a big April Fools set-up to prod at people like me, but bloody hell I hope that guy pisses off for good.

Re: Nintendo Aims To Develop Its Characters Without "Destroying" The Memories Of Fans

I get their approach and respect it n' all but there's a certain degree before absurdity right? The obvious example is the Mario RPG series, particularly Paper Mario. This whole idea seems to relate closely to what has been said by people working on that series lately but like it's clearly different from the fan point of view who wants to see more experimental ideas come out of the series. Let's not even get started on Hey Pikmin and Amiibo festival.
