Lets Talk: What's Up with Nintendo? (Expensive ports, tourney shut down, and poor game preservation)
5Notes
- I misrepresented Nintendo of America's legal argument against Blockbuster in 1989. The suit was about the replication not the absence of instruction manuals. This still remains an example of Nintendo wielding copyright for anti-consumer purposes (and losing). Please watch the Video Game Historian episode on this it's interesting and phenomenally produced: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3xuy5YALl0
- The Megaman game I was thinking about in the Megaman X collection was called Battle & Chase: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mega_Man:_Battle_%26_Chase
- About the 4k 60 fps Mario 64 port: https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/07/the_super_mario_64_pc_port_just_got_a_60fps_patch

Description
Finally got to use my captured SSBU footage in a video xD
Another year another let's talk. I talk w/ my friend E over discord, this year about Super Mario 3D All stars, Nintendo's inconsistent attitudes towards its game library and how that might relate to Nintendo's recent stance towards tournaments like the Big House which leverage mods. Apologies for the discord audio at some points. #freemelee #savesmash #savesplatoon #bowsersteacup
