Nintendo Hits YouTube Soundtrack Channel With A Staggering 1300 Copyright Strikes

[The Brazilian Slaughter]

Nintendo is horrible to its fans and fan-content, indeed.
Here you got people like Paradox and Bethesda who, for all their faults, do very well with fan content, and then you got Nintendo who has some bizarre weirdo japanese attitude to it.

Pirating Nintendo games is not only correct but a moral obligation. Fuck Nintendo. Fuck Nintendo.

When I get some money I will buy me an old ass Super Nintendo and then play Nintendo games using a cartridge modified with a small SSD card stuffed full of ROM files, giving all their games in a SINGLE CARTRIDGE.

And I'm not going to pay a DIME to Nintendo for that.

 

[Bigg Boss]

Yeah, their stupid Jap mindset makes me hate their guts. A game that is 5 years old is still 60 bucks. Get fucked. I'm tired of buying your systems for Zelda. Please go out of business and sell the rights.

 

[Rinslin Merwind]

Btw, I heard some rumors claim that it wasn't Nintendo, but some random asshole, who impersonated Nintendo, just to ruin channel owner's life out of spite.
Youtube copyright claim registration system is stupid enough to let this happen (anybody can file claim, there no system in place to check ownership), so maybe true or maybe not.

Yeah, most of the soundtrack videos in the game music threads are missing. This is why posting the name of the song is important.

On the other hand The Switch is coming up on PS4 numbers, and it took Steam's place as the big platform for indie titles. They aren't moving on from the Switch yet, Nintendo hasn't enjoyed this kind of success and been in the position they are now with a home console since the original NES.

Wii was bigger than PS3 and XBOX, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_game_consoles

 

[Grauken]

My guess is that they're preparing to launch the Switch's successor and they don't want to commit too much to the current console. They've been doing this since the Game Cube days, the last years of a Nintendo console suck beyond belief.

That's because the GameCube was the GameCube and nothing really sold on it. On the other hand The Switch is coming up on PS4 numbers, and it took Steam's place as the big platform for indie titles.

Steam's still the big platform for indie titles, Switch might be nice but can't compare to the number of indie games published on Steam

Nintendo has always been an anti-consumer dickbag company.

Wii sold big hardware wise but non-Nintendo software sales were lacking, due in part to the system being an overclocked gamecube with a gimmick controller.

Switch has more 3rd party support and 3rd party sales; and it hasn't been good for anything, where most don't only own a switch and can play those games on other systems. The idiot fans think that having Switch Skyrim and Switch Diablo III is the best thing in the world, games from 2011.

Ever since the N64, one buys a nintendo console for their first party titles and a playstation/xbox/PC for everything else.

 

[Bigg Boss]

The trick is to wait until they are practically giving the console away then you buy it and the five games worth playing then you rinse and repeat until you (or they) die.

 

[Assisted Living Godzilla]

Yeah, the Wii system sold well, but outside of Nintendo's own software (and I guess those Rabbids games) they couldn't sell games on it. The Switch on the other hand has sold better than the Wii in the short time it's been out, and it does moves software, which means unlike the Wii publishers are actually releasing games on it. None of this stuff is too surprising, even when the consoles weren't doing well their handhelds always did, and the Switch is also Nintendo's new handheld and it's getting all the stuff you'd expect a Nintendo handheld to get.

Steam is also not where indie titles sell the most. They do better on Switch, they've been doing better on Switch since basically the release of the Switch, that's why you see so many indie titles coming to the Switch. There was a lot of noise about this around the time the Switch came out, and Steam's shitty curation.

 

[Bigg Boss]

You see so many indie titles coming to Switch because it makes sense to port your game to more platforms.

This has nothing to do with curation. Even under the strictest possible standards indies on steam would still be competing with around 20 years worth of titles sold for literal pennies. Nevermind the fact that if steam was curating shit like before steam greenlight most indie games would have never reached steam anyway. The whole curation thing is just a massive cope by indie devs not willing to admit that by whining their way onto the steam store they collectively shot themselves in the foot.
Better sales on switch are the result of those indies not having to compete with such a large library of high-quality but ultra cheap titles. Plus since Switch is portable there is a higher level of tolerance there for what are basically expanded flash games.

remember that one?

Once it is no longer possible to purchase software in Nintendo eShop on Wii U and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, many classic games for past platforms will cease to be available for purchase anywhere.
Will you make classic games available to own some other way? If not, then why? Doesn’t Nintendo have an obligation to preserve its classic games by continually making them available for purchase?
-Across our Nintendo Switch Online membership plans, over 130 classic games are currently available in growing libraries for various legacy systems. The games are often enhanced with new features such as online play.

-We think this is an effective way to make classic content easily available to a broad range of players. Within these libraries, new and longtime players can not only find games they remember or have heard about, but other fun games they might not have thought to seek out otherwise. -We currently have no plans to offer classic content in other ways.
