Just adding this to the thread, there’s still a chance this wasn’t actually Nintendo. I’ve heard in the past it’s been confirmed to be them, and I don’t know if that applies here and this was a fake claim. We just have to wait and see, but either Nintendo or YT has a problem.

@IntroSpecktive Yea Nintendo makes good games, but has one of the worst customer service / care. Seriously most of the time they ignore feedback, the rest they just do the reverse of our feedback. And once in a while they do listen to people.

I really hope these Nintendo strikes are actually an imposter. I’ve seen Team YT say it was Nintendo, I’ve seen others say it’s some company pretending to be. If it’s Nintendo, that’s an issue. If it’s an imposter, YouTube has an issue. Not a good look for either of them

@PoppiWp @HeavensHero Ohhh yeah saw this. Must be fake as Nintendo have mostly stopped copyright claiming gameplay footage of their games. This was a huge problem so many years ago.

@cosycoIe Now this was when I first got nintendo online and this was in March and I don't remember the island name or the dream address and I've tried looking on my Nintendo online thing it's not working so but I think if you just look up log on the portal you will be able to find it

@Ruleof2Review Chip shortages. Need I say more? You forgot that that's still a thing in the industry? Especially with the PS5 still being hard to find because of these problems. I don't think Nintendo would want to go through that too, at least for now I don't think they want to deal with that.

@StylesX2_ The Japanese copyright system is honestly weird, as Nintendo is a JP company they can do whatever they'd like. YT should block videos from Japan to fix this issue.

@MarcTech1996 @RHazuky A long text but, men. Sony got more money for service game that fiat party AAA like GOW or TLOU2. So doesn’t Mather what u say the important go Sony, mic, Nintendo is the money not your gavorite games. If the AAA from ps were a top sellers as CoD or even elden ring

@StylesX2_ I would expect Nintendo to use their legal name (Nintendo Co., Ltd.) in the YouTube copyright system. But YouTube claims that the claims were valid. But you cannot trust YouTube to be minimally competent in this. But Nintendo has issues plenty of BS copyright claims before.

@chav760 @MldGhost Again as a Playstation fan primarily stop smoking crack. Facts are facts. You are entitled to your own opinion you are not entitled to your own facts. You play your Playstation games on Microsoft servers. So does Nintendo. Xbox cares more about being a service.

@AlphaGamma297 @ZoneArchives I hear ya. Luckily, Nintendo most likely won't be making certain fan-made depictions of Krystal canon anytime soon. (If they did, they'd be in a lot of trouble lol)

@Lion_019 @GoNintendoTweet I mean, if we're talking first party on NES, we're still lacking Mach Rider, Golf, Mysterious Murasame Castle, Devil World, F-1 Race, and Zoda's Revenge. The lack of Zoda's Revenge is baffling because we HAVE StarTropics on the service already. Just ******* do it, Nintendo.

@Carolchitis oh yeah it clearly hasn't done much to slow it down, especially now that it seems Nintendo are manufacturing joycons with the issue fixed (like the SSHD ones) certainly not as bad as red ring despite having been a longer lasting issue

@Torabisu51 @TheWolflance @MakinaKid Don’t forget that Nintendo‘s solution to the Mario party lawsuit was gloves to the victims. If they didn’t do that much of a job to try to fix what they had released back then when will they do it now?

@Unknownman5671 @NibrocRock I feel the same way about the Mario Kart 8 Booster Course Pass, but when I pointed out Nintendo’s laziness that it was a simple fix add textures, people said it was a small detail and then proceeded to tell me to touch grass. I really hope Sonic Frontiers turns out well.

i think the project for today is to fix the broken nintendo ds lite i bought because if i don’t find anything broken in there then i have all i need for a working system

@IntroSpecktive Last I checked Nintendo doesn’t copyright things as just “Nintendo.” I feel like this issue has come up a lot recently with impersonators. I mean it could be Nintendo but I’m pretty sure this was proven to just be some guy, which may be worse imo. YouTube has gotten really bad.

@valvesoftware @Nintendo @nvidia TF2 is in an unacceptable state Valve. We need to fix it. Voice chat removal isn't going to help. we need to get rid of bots altogether, not supress them. Join the team, and for once, RED And BLU are Banding together to stop these bots, Mann Vs Machine, if you will. #savetf2

...work involving numerous parties (YouTube and Nintendo corporate leaders, SVPs, etc.) whereas an issue a user is having with YouTube premium could likely be resolved by a CSR or tech support rep. That's likely why TeamYouTube only responded to the user saying their Premium...

@AOTN091 @Pokemon @NintendoAmerica The date could be that your 3DS was set to that year for some reason, but 2.0 of HOME it’s just garbage and broken. It’s providing a variety of different error codes and won’t let people transfer pokemon to different games. I want to send stuff to PLA but I can’t without an error
