Nintendo has decided to actually follow through on YouTube copyright infringement policies and is seeking ad revenue from user channels that feature Let's Play videos of the publisher's games.
"As part of our on-going push to ensure Nintendo content is shared across social media channels in an appropriate and safe way, we became a YouTube partner and as such in February 2013 we registered our copyright content in the YouTube database," said Nintendo in a statement to GameFront.
"For most fan videos this will not result in any changes, however, for those videos featuring Nintendo-owned content, such as images or audio of a certain length, adverts will now appear at the beginning, next to or at the end of the clips. We continually want our fans to enjoy sharing Nintendo content on YouTube, and that is why, unlike other entertainment companies, we have chosen not to block people using our intellectual property."
What this means is that those who host Let's Play gameplay footage will no longer profit from their videos and that money will instead be diverted into Nintendo's pocket.
Super Metroid's release on the Wii U virtual console has brought a classic to a new and appreciative generation of gamers!
