So it begins...

And once again we see the wild Wind jumping to conclusions as he is followed by a flock of sheep...

But in all seriousness this is hardly going to kill the industry. People probably won't LP as many Mario games but is that really that big of a problem?

For everyone who's "job" is to play games and talk over it, while having his silly face as thumbnail and calling it "original content" - yes.

You see, all of this was written in the YouTube Terms of Service. Someone should've seen this coming.
... but who reads the ToS.

Well they need to play a different game and stop complaining.

So it's like, before when people did video walkthroughs of Nintendo games on Youtube, they also got paid for it. But now, that money is going to go to Nintendo, is that right?

yes
real original content, like reviews (and other fun things) are unaffected.

real original content

What the fuck is that supposed to mean?

[jkid101094]

Yeah, Kyo's right on that note.

Let's Plays violate so many terms and are close enough to breaking the law as is. People should stop bitching that they can't earn money for playing a game and just be happy that they can upload the videos in the first place. At least Nintendo isn't taking the videos down.

And it's only Mario. This doesn't even affect Zelda. Geez.

What the fuck is that supposed to mean?

Exactly what it sounds like.

[SmashFinale]

It means people need to get real jobs that doesn't involve thoroughly enjoying it.
