A legal threat from Nintendo has shut down the manufacturing and sale of custom-designed Joy-Con controllers honoring Desmond “Etika” Amofah. Though the cease-and-desist demand was sent more than two months ago, news of it broke this weekend and drew widespread condemnation for Nintendo on social media.

The controllers, called “Etikons,” earned more than $36,000 in funding on Indiegogo in August 2019, shortly after Amofah died. With a YouTube following of more than 800,000, Amofah was celebrated for his over-the-top reaction videos, and his fandom for Super Smash Bros. and other Nintendo franchises. Amofah died by suicide in June 2019, after uploading a disturbing video in which he discussed thoughts of self-harm.
