Mario : Fans can't rework my games. Sonic : no copyright law in the universe is going to stop me.

Nintendo: No fun allowed. Nintendrones: tHeY hAvE tHe RiGhT tO dO iT.

Respect their games, not their company and business practices.

Being a lifelong Nintendo fan hurts these days when I have to sit back and watch them be petty and cruel towards their fans. I know they're a company and money is important, but the Sega comparison really drives the point home that you can be in it for more than just the money.

This is why I support the developers *not* the company and if I could I would give my money straight to the devs but unfortunately a business is a business

I'll admit, that intro got a good laugh out of me

*VIDEO UNAVAILABLE* *this video contains content from nintendo, who has blocked it on copyright grounds.*

I hate the fact that when the ff villain was revealed for smash, everyone is acting like they did nothing wrong over the year and it pisses me off

Well said Sam, Nintendo needs to learn to treat their fans properly because if they’re not careful, they’re gonna step on the wrong people’s toes and pay for it.

Sam proceeds to say the name "Nintendo" over 5 times. Nintendo: Take this video down or else!!!!!

This is the the exact reason why I love SEGA and Sonic as a whole. SEGA really shows how much they love their fans, to even making a Sonic hacking contest with different mods made from the fans, and yes I do agree Nintendo dose make great looking games. I totally do. But the way that they treat their fans is not right. That’s why, SEGA truly dose what Ninten-don’t Btw great vid Sam!

I never even realised that the Nintendo fans are probably used to this, which is sad. They really shouldn't need to be used to stuff like this.

Sega When Someone Makes A Fan Game: your hired Nintendo When Someone Makes A Fan Game: *thanos snap*

Welcome to Nintendo my friend. We just want your money, not your love.

15:58 rest in peace etika from last year

Thank you for addressing this Sam. This is a problem that Nintendo needs to see and understand for themselves. This weird and stupid business practice has to end, hopefully we can get enough voices behind it so Nintendo can understand our struggle.

Their fans are their worst enemy, they just keep buying garbage like 3 rom hacks for 60$ or 25 WiiU ports.

“Throughout this video, I’m playing songs from Sega” Me: *No, no, he’s got a point.*

Nintendo's shutting down a charity suggests to me that they aren't seeking to understand before copyright striking.

0:03 I died great performance as always sam!

Another good example: just look at Scott Cawthon. He literally, no I mean LITERALLY, supports his fans. Just a month/couple months ago, he released a FNAF Project where he and many other FAN creators are going to rework the first FNAF games, as well as TJOC (The Joy of Creation), a literal FANGAME. SCOTT IS LITERALLY PROVIDING FUNDING FOR A FANGAME. THAT is how you support your fans.

Nintendo be like 1. Cover yourself in oil 2. Walk into burning building

I’ve been talking about Nintendo going down the dark, corporate trail for almost a decade, and people have finally come around once they’ve seen the worst of it.

I think we all know what to say about this but seriously, how far does Nintendo need to go to be hated by their fans, I remember during the 3ds and wii u days when Nintendo provided loads of games in the 3ds and wii u eshop, especially their classic games. Now on the switch, Nintendo rarely releases those classics, as of this date, there's only nes and snes games they release when they feel like it. I'm going there (sorry), Sega on the other handed has released their classics for years, starting with sonic and others like comix zone, and mean bean machine. One thing to say here, Sega Genesis classics on the switch, has introduced to me (and I hope others) Sega Genesis games I never played before.

All jokes aside of "SEGA does what Nintendon't." SEGA's really a huge example of the best moral company, something a company SHOULD be more of. Not saying every other company is bad or doesn't do the same, it's just what I'm realizing is that SEGA approves of this more often and it's amazing. I really want Nintendo to learn from this . . . the higher ups of Nintendo to be specific.

3:37 did I just get Rick Rolled by Sam? Well then

I’m the opposite always been a Nintendo fan but segas getting up there

Fun Fact: It's Nintendo's fault why Sony Playstation exist.

I miss nintendo from the early 2000’s.

When I see a Sam Procrastination video I click faster than the speed of light.

Nintendo Lost Their Minds

The worst part of all this is that it all comes down to them only caring about money rather tan the people who give them the money in the first place. Like, they know the quality of their products is great, and so they can get away with treating their CLIENTS like garbage and STILL manage to sell a bunch. I think that because of this, they will hardly do anything to change their ways about all this

The fact that Nintendo would shut down a charity event for suicide prevention...that's just disgusting.

Nintendo is always stuck in their own little bubble, and said bubble is also frozen in time. They need completely new leadership. People who actually know more about the modern games industry, cause Nintendo now sure knows jack shit about it. Leaders that aren't afraid to take notes from their competitors.

I think another reason why Nintendo is their own worst enemy is Joy-Con drift. They just believe it isn’t real.

As someone who grew up with Nintendo and is just now getting into Sega properties (the opposite of your perspective), it's not shocking but still disappointing to see these actions. I hope soon they manage to change their ideology on fan stuff

19:34 “no one else can bring you guys down.” That’s exactly why they’re doing it. They know regardless of what they do, as long as they make at least decent-ish games and keep a stranglehold on the general audience’s childhoods, they can charge whatever price they want, kill as many communities as they want, make as many horrible mistakes as they want as long as they don’t fuck up those two things, because people will just keep coming back anyways. Not even mentioning the Twitter Nintendrones. People just like their shit that much, they can’t just not play it. They know this, and with the switch passing the NES in sales and coming for the Wii, they care less than ever. They were similarly arrogant when the Wii exploded, just not as publicly. Nowadays that’s not the case. I’m not gonna shut up about how scummy and ancient they are because it’s something to do that isn’t sitting inside for the 9th month in a row, but they’ve more or less won already.

Awesome intro Sam👍. I grew up with both Nintendo and SEGA games. I hope one day Nintendo will support fan projects like SEGA does.

Why did MARIO Sam look so happy to slap himself XD🤣🤣🤣

Conspiracy theory: *Nintendo purposely did shitty things so people would like Sephiroth in smash more* This is a joke

SEGA CARES WHAT NINTENDONT CARE ABOUT

I've already known how Sega supports their fans more than Nintendo supports theirs, but I feel like your video did a great job highlighting this. Before watching your video, it had never occurred to me that without Sega's support for the fan-community, Sonic Mania would have never existed. That's CRAZY to me.

Nintendo is like Disney. I love what they make (for the most part) but their business practices are.....questionable to say the least.

Nice Job Sam You Rick Rolled Us! 3:36

Sonic in that Subspace Emissary Finale was one memory to never forget Sam, he saved everyone that's a Sega Sonic moment in crossover history!

As a Nintendo fan the way they have been acting makes me really sad i swear they have been even worse this year than they have before also good video as usual Sam

What's sad is the Nintendo bootlickers will defend terrible practices like this no matter what

That moment when even Nintendo is getting cancelled

Even if not biggest Sega fan seeing someone being their fan is really heart warming.

The way I see it is that... Nintendo: Makes amazing games and products, but have very strict copyright policies and poor community support. Sega: Makes great games and products and have strong bonds with the community plus their copyright policies in regards to fan projects are fair and lenient. Sony/Microsoft: Make a wide variety of games and products that have different quality ratings that range from questionable to literal innovations that are state of the art! As far as I can tell both the X-box and the PS have community sizes that are immeasurable. Both companies do enforce their copyright policies, but do not go to an extreme or go to unreasonable lengths. PC: There are literally no limits to what PC platforms can do and what they're capable of. Mobile: A platform that houses ok to pretty good games. The communities are kind of all over the place, but when they're organized, they can become quite big and faithful to their fanbases. Oculus: We're still working on the games. The technology and the products are experimental at best, But hey at least you can physically see yourself in a videogame! 3rd Parties: Please recognize our games and products! 3rd parties have so much hidden potential. They just have to be recognized and acknowledged by people who appreciate the hard work creator's and developer's put into their games and projects. I know that I'm probably missing a few gaming platforms, but this post is getting too long and I can't think of anything else from the top of my head. In my opinion I think Sega does the best job at balancing the quality of their games, products/merchandise, facilities, company, brand, copyrights, and franchises(for the most part, no company is perfect). Comment down below to discuss about what you think about the gaming market/community in 2020-2021?

I may like mario more than sonic but as a company, sega is hella better than nintendo

That is a pretty good video and all really great points but Sam slap himself is too hilarious 😂😂😂 tge sound the acting is all si funny

Sega does what nintendon't

Nintendo is the Disney of videogames: Relies on nostalgia, is stupidly protective of their properties, push fans away, and claim that it is the fans who are out of touch, not them. The only difference is Nintendo makes quality, so it's like walking by a breeder selling puppies in horrid conditions. The puppies are going to die if you don't buy them, but if you do, you enable the seller to continue.

I am happy that you speak out as well, Sam. I love Nintendo too but the way they treat their fans and community support is horrific. Not to mention that the fact fans still defend their actions and thinking it's a better solution is really a big facepalm there.

You made me think about what happened with nintendo and roblox

Sega does what nintendon’t

Never knew we see Sam slap himself. But jokes aside though Nintendo should really at least ease a little when it comes to streaming their games

Man if that's how they're treating the fans I can only imagine what the game developers are going through , must be a crunch time for them 24x7 :(

I loved the Cosplay between Sam and Nintendo 😂

SEGA: This is an awesome fan Sonic game. You're hired! NINTENDO: You are not using our IP's for your fan games, GET LOST! Awesome video Sam.

Players :- Having fun with Nintendo games Nintendo :- THAT'S ILLEGAL

Whenever I pirate Nintendo games, I think of these things and realize there's no need to feel guilty.

Nintendo making good games as usual... They are also being a bad company as usual... Everything is right in the world... No it actually isn't

i feel like nintendo doesn't look at their fans as people. instead, they look at them as walking dollar signs.

I've always loved Nintendo's games but honestly I've never liked the company, Say what you will about Sega recently with Forces and TSR and all that but... At least Sega didn't shut down a Charity 😐 Edit: "No one else can bring you guys down, you have a market that no one else can touch and that is why i think only nintendo can stop nintendo." Exactly, honestly I don't think they'll change because no one can stop them except themselves. For them to change they have to see all this stuff as a problem. Double Edit Omg: Btw Sam (If ya ever see this Hi 🤩) There's a ton of vids going into the legality of Nintendo's Shut downs and stuff if you're puzzled but that still.

Only Nintendo can stop Nintendo to let Nintendo thrive

I'll admit, that bit at the beginning was hilarious but in regards to everything involving Nintendo. To be honest as much as I hope it gets better and don't want to hate on them like a lot of others have been doing. But with how things have gone I'm expecting this to only get worse from here.

Sega does what Nintendon't

Nintendo attacks fanmade games because they see it better, the potential is far greater than nintendo capabilities

KZfaqrs: Nintendo is their own worst enemy . (Meanwhile Nintendo is the richest company in Japan) Nintendo: Can't hear you over the noise of dump trucks full of money!

0:00-00:04 New meme material

That intro is hilarious😂 good video though and I totally agree with you!!!

0:03 this is so funny!

The dislikes are from Nintendo employees

Nintendo has become more petty than a karen

THIS is exactly why I still love Sega itself, even with them releasing bad games, I believe them and other game companies still stand because they have a fanbase that is truly dedicated to them, that are free to mod and do other things with their ip’s, while with Nintendo they basically hurt themselves like you said in the video, they have a family friendly market that no other gaming company can touch, would it kill them to allow some things slide? Well to them it’s no, let’s just hope they try and improve in the future, so that Nintendo can finally do, what Sega, Microsoft, Sony, etc does.

3 words.. *my thoughts exactly.*

SEGA DOES WHAT NINTENDON’T!!! FROM ONE SONIC FAN TO ANOTHER SAM!!!

Another thing about the big house thing is uh *Nintendo DIDN'T have a right to do it* the mod was PERFECTLY LEGAL. it wasn't a mod for the GAME, but for the EMULATOR. which is a LEGAL THING TO DO. And they were EMULATING IT WITH LEGAL ROMS THAT WERE FROM DIRECT DISC COPIES OF THE GAME.

Sega loves there fans Nintendo hates there fans Sega still does what nintendont

This really shows just HOW good their games are. If they were anything but these insanely incredible games, no one would put up with their shite anymore.

It's not a morality thing and will never be so. Sega and other companies simply see a bigger financial incentive by letting players do what they want with their intellectual property, since it leads to somewhat-free advertising (piracy costs not being considered) and that leading to an opportunity for players to learn about other games in the companies' lineup.

God does Nintendo even have a heart. #Freemelee

Sam’s quality acting, and it’s truth!😂

I've looked into the Etikon situation around a week ago, and I saw stuff about how Etika's family wasn't asked for permission to set up basically a charity in honor of his suicide, and also how Alex actually had the cease and desist in october, but decided to bring it up now? The situation is confusing but that event in particular isn't black and white for sure, so I remain neutral on that. If someone can try to get a clearer idea of the situation, please let me and others know as the original reddit post was reedited to say the whole thread made things more toxic than necessary

That intro tho 😂

Nintendo sounds like a strict parent

Nintendo: ''I'm about to end this man's whole career.'' SEGA: ''Woah you made this, It's so good, come see us tomorrow.''

*SLAP*

It’s probably because they created a classic Mario and modern Mario. Too much confusion among the fandom

Actually, the Etikons were mostly a scam as only 15% went to charity, none of Etika's family were aware or gave permission, and CptAlx just acts very shady and scummy

Agreed,

The argument revolving around Nintendo not needing to hire fans because they’re games are of good quality needs to stop. Burnout is going to happen eventually and there are some really good fan ideas that Nintendo could benefit from.

I thought #FreeMelee meant fans wanted a free version of Melee oof XD

Remember how Nintendo took down InfernoPlus' Super Mario Battle Royale fan-game, even when he removed all of the Mario assets, and then made Super Mario 35 a year later?

18:33 heck even the Fire Emblem: shadow dragon and the blade of light switch port with a translation is for a limited time release. Wtf Nintendo. (It's cheaper but its still an issue there)

Nintendo: Limited fun. Sega: INFINITE FUN WITH SEGA ENTERPRISES

Nintendo needs to get their shit together

What's even more stupid is that Nintendo took down scans of a book of Super Mario 64 that was made in 1996 for no reason because it wasn't released in the west I'm not kidding it's on Twitter and it happened back in March of this year seriously Nintendo stuff like that needs to stop
