Nintendo Says No Livestreaming for Creators

Participants in Nintendo’s Creator Program will no longer be able to livestream gaming sessions on YouTube. Channels currently signed up to Nintendo’s revenue sharing program are entirely prohibited from livestreaming under the new rules, unless they choose to de-register the channel and register their videos individually. Separate channels by the same content producer are allowed however.

Hopefully this will not impact any Pokémon channels; Pokémon content is not managed by Nintendo under their program, but channels may be part of Nintendo’s program.

Definitely a step back for fans and creators alike! Thanks for the heads up My Nintendo News!

  1. It really fucking bothers me that I can basically say any other damn cussword, but as soon as I say say “sh*t” and forget to bleep one of the letters, it suddenly needs to be approved by a mod.

  3. A series of questions:
    1) Why do you think they brought back Anabel of all characters for the Ultra Beast plot line in SM? Was this game freak trying to make up for our outrage at no Battle Frontier in ORAS?
    2) Where do you think her and Looker will fit into the story of USUM, if at all? It seems the Ultra Beasts may actually have a role in the main plot this time around instead of the post game.
    3) Do you think Colress will actually be linked with Aether Foundation this time around? It seemed like an obvious association that they just didn’t make for some reason.

  4. Remember the x and y reveal trailer that showed Xerneas in this beautiful forest?

    Remember looking at the Kalos map and pointing out how perfect it would be to find it in Laveer City?

    Now we know it’s in a boring lab…

    Why do X and Y even exist?

      • They’re fantastic games that receive unnecessary hate imo
        I dislike the lack of BF and not utlising Zygarde in main story.
        Otherwise imo Kalos is the best region absolutely beautiful. The pokemon are great. And the game is well designed with the theme of beauty reflected everywhere..also mega evolution is cool and the characters are more than fine.
        Unjustified hate I tell you.

        • Looking at a game critically takes the fun out of it. You’ll hate everything regardless of it being a good or bad thing.
          Why don’t you do what im doing, play to enioy and see what its all about its actually fun.

          • That’s fine. We all have our own tastes.
            Atm im playing Y and I absolutely love it. The region, theme and mons etc
            Are they better than SM? BW era? Probably not but still v.good imo

          • That’s the biggest bullshit I’ve heard you ever say.

            Looking at at piece of art critically is important to understand its shortcomings and achievements. If you truly love something then you need to accept the problems with it. That’s what being critical about anything should be.

            Without art criticism we wouldn’t understand what makes great media great. So many movies, music, painting and games wouldn’t be nearly as good as they are.

            If you are going to blindly love something then you won’t ever truly appreciate anything creative. You won’t understand what makes games great or fun. How to make them better.

            Go ahead and pop that bubble yourself. You will have a better time with games when you can study them

    • X was my first game, and I liked it a lot. (Played it and Y numerous times). It had some flaws though. Mainly I think that the Regional Dex was too big (450). I had a hard time deciding what to use. And I still get lost in Lumiose City, and wanted a way to deselect the rollerskates.

      I don’t really play for the story because this is it: a guy loved his Floette so much that when it died he killed a bunch of other pokemon to bring it back to life and then it left him again and so he was going to destroy the whole world? It’s kind of poignant, but it’s a really dumb plan. Thank God he didn’t have a kid. And Team Flare was going to straight-up kill everyone who didn’t pay enough to be in their cult because…? Well, a 10 year old with some magic animals foiled that plan so it’s all good.

      Ranking the Pokemon games I’ve played: HeartGold, ORAS, SunMoon, XY, Platinum, LeafGreen, White. Hard to rank them though.

  5. I thought to myself “why not have four rods named after the tiers of pokeballs”
    Than I remembered one would be called the master rod…

  7. This is just fantastic. How does Nintendo respond to the criticisms? By making it worse, of course!

    What exactly went through their heads…

  8. Wasn’t there supposed to be some news today?

    (also, because I’m an idiot and don’t know how buses work, I basically was on a 2 hour long sightseeing tour of Warsaw to finally be picked up by my dad to get home. I’m such a looser)
