Today (Monday, May, 13th, 2013) TGS send messages to there partners. Saying that Nintendo has said to them that you cannot make videos with Nintendo video game footage over 10 minutes without possible getting a Content ID match, and possibly a copywrite strike!
This is utter ridiculousness! Let's play, reviews, and more are free publicity for Nintendo! Some people live, eat, and get paid from Youtube for making let's plays, and this is how Nintendo treats there fans? Some people buys games just because they saw a review/let's play on Youtube, and Nintendo doesn't want that?
And whats with the over 10 minutes? Is this old school Youtube all over again? Let's plays can take well over 10 minutes, and a good in depth review can take twice that long!
Nintendo please, change this policy, we want to make let's plays of your amazing games! Don't make us go let's play other consoles games!
Please sign petition to make Nintendo change there policy! Nintendo needs to know this is wrong to do, and that it'll help them if they do allow let's plays!
Thanks to everyone that signs it, and Nintendo please do it for the gamers, fans, and let's players!
I am honestly overwhelmed by the stories you are sharing about how these videos shaped your love for gaming. It really shows that this is about so much more than just a policy change and I am just glad to provide a space where we can talk about it together.

This is ridiculous. Nintendo is stuck in the 90s. Free advertising is free advertising, stop fighting your own fans.

I literally bought MarioKart because I watched a streamer play it. You guys are literally hurting your own sales by doing this.
