Nintendo is finally shutting down its controversial Creators Program after three rocky years packed with criticism from YouTubers.
The news was announced in a short post on the company's website, with the official explanation being Nintendo wants to "make it easier for content creators to make and monetise videos that contain Nintendo game content".
Those who make videos featuring Nintendo's intellectual property will no longer need to submit their content to the program - although they will still need to abide by Nintendo's newly-updated guidelines. These stipulate content creators must include their own "creative input and commentary" in videos, meaning raw gameplay footage is not allowed. Creators must also use monetisation methods approved by Nintendo, such as YouTube's Partner Program and the Twitch Affiliate Program (among others). No Patreon plugs for you - although the list is apparently due to be updated further along the line.
