Nintendo goes after Game & Watch hacking videos with copyright claims



After hacking Nintendo's Super Mario Bros. edition Game & Watch, showing how to do so, and even getting other games to run on it--DOOM among them, YouTuber stacksmashing has found some of their tutorials removed from the site. Two of the user's videos involving hacking the system were taken down from YouTube via copyright claims from Nintendo. Stacksmashing decided to fire back at Nintendo, by disputing the claims, and in the meantime, uploading highly edited video where he pokes fun at the company for going after his content. He plans to re-upload the removed videos in the future by blurring out any official gameplay footage, which according to the copyright claim, is the "reason" they were taken down.

Like I said a while back when the G&W dropped:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/gameboy-classic-mini.577276/

This hardware is a test run for their GB Mini that will be coming soon as its obvious from the overly specced screen and limited on board space as they want to sell multiple iterations of the handhelds in different colours with different games and prevent hacks/loading taking away from potential Virtual Console sales as the whole point of it will be to hype the Nintendo brand and capture lapsed gamers.

Coming from the guy who told you DualSense = Joycon Drift for Sony before they released:

Wait and see.

The Big N is practicing censorship of media content; I doubt that their claims of Copyright are valid, but they just have so much money, people mistake that for power and truth. They are practicing intimidation or scare tactics, and I bet if someone went up against them in a court of law N would lose.

The fuck is wrong with Nintendo? Sony is not really like this, Microsoft neither but Nintendo? Holy fucking shit, they have gone wild with DMCA, Cease and Desist, sueing, hunting and much more other crap. I'm so glad I haven't bought their Switch but bummed as I like it solely to play Donkey Kong with my cousin. Fuck Nintendo!

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
