MY question is don’t copyright and trademark holding companies have to do things like this to keep them?

“YouTuber” in this case isn’t some [nobody](https://YouTube.com/JesseFilmmaker), but it’s DIDYOUKNOWGAMING, one of the largest gaming YouTube channels and best researchers into the history of gaming.
I’m glad they won this claim but that article title is kind of degrading. As if they are trying to delegitimize a publication that has an established history of being resourceful, trustworthy, and one I personally high respect.

Kotaku sucks. That said, so does Nintendo. I’m glad they lost this fight.
Downvoters angry they can’t shill for rich multi-national organizations without being belittled for it.

Good. Fuck you nintendo

Nintendo has the most bored over zealous legal team.

Did Nintendo actually lose a fight here? It sounds more like this was automatic. The video maker disputed the DMCA claim, and Nintendo hasnt sued them after two weeks.

Said it before and I’ll say it again, again.
They might make your favorite games, but Nintendo is NOT your friend.

The thing I take from this is I would love to see this game actually being made.

This is a terribly written headline for a halfway decent article written by Kotaku, but what else do we as fans expect from the gaming news website Kotaku? A kotaku article not having clickbait? That’s never going to happen. I’m glad Did you know gaming? won in this circumstance because truthfully they were doing independent reporting on a subject for education purposes. That’s the entire point of did you know gaming, it’s literally The title of the channel! Also, they were given this information by persons who probably broke NDAs to talk about these things. If Nintendo was a good faith actor within litigation on these circumstances, they would never have gone after the channel publishing the information for an educational purpose, they would have gone after the persons involved with giving the channel the information in the first place because legally that’s the only thing they can do. Once the leak is out, it’s out and at that point it’s no longer proprietary information of the corporation of Nintendo, it’s public information that can be speculated on by various news organizations whether or not Nintendo likes it. And we all know Nintendo doesn’t like it. I’m not trying to bash on Nintendo, I’m just saying that they’re legal department may need some retraining with regards to situations like this.

None object to Nintendo’s core competency of making and selling enjoyable games. However, its aggressive enforcement to monetize peripheral aspects of that competency does deserve proper scorn.

Why do people insist on thinking Kotaku is a legitimate source for any information. It’s clickbait at best.

I’ve seen the video too and man I think Nintendo dropped the ball with that idea like even if Nintendo didn’t want to use Zelda they definitely should have took that opportunity to make that a stand alone game

What is this shit hole of a comments thread 💀💀💀??

Aaaaaaaaand of course the thread for this post becomes a fucking war zone between fans and haters.
Also, Kotaku sucks.

DYKG may have won the claim dispute, but I imagine the actual dumpster fire happened behind the scenes when Nintendo confronted employees of Rare for sharing this information. Don’t be surprised if this is the last contribution Rare gives to DYKG after this.

Nintendo Tactics games are coincidentally so hot right now, between Mario+Rabbids, Triangle Strategy, FE, etc… Zelda Tactics would actually make them a truckload of money now if they decided to make it after all these years!

Did AI write this title or am I having a stroke?

Every company should want everyone to know about their hard work.

My favorite part of the article was the part where Nintendo is able to disrupt someone’s income with zero proof and zero consequences.
Bullying and oppression for the modern age!

Everything about this is clickbait.
A failed pitch is not a cancelled game, for fucks sake.

I dislike this channel A LOT but it’s nice to see them actually shutting Nintendo’s mouth for a change. Good on them.

Nintendo can be despicable sometimes.
TheKlaxMaster
Nor did fucking kotaku actually link the damn video.
I fucking hate kotaku.

And we’re positive this is legit? This is the same news group that said Nintendo is facing sexual harassment scandals last year. When no sexual harassment has happened at all
Captain-Boof-It
Not sure if this is a win against Nintendo but DYKG is a great page that does seriously thorough dives into game history and I definitely suggest their page if you just enjoy cool/fun video game facts

It’s ethical to pirate Nintendo games.
