We've reached out to both Vargas and Nintendo of America for additional comment. Vargas was one of many notable YouTubers who blasted Nintendo for the Creators Program after it was announced in January.Ī member of the Polaris multichannel network (MCN), Vargas also was among those most outspoken against new YouTube policies implemented in late 2013 that no longer shielded some MCN video publishers from YouTube's automated content-flagging system.Īpparently he's had enough. That said, it's not clear if the copyright claim against Vargas related to the Creators Program or not, as the program is still in a beta and will not be launched fully until May 27. While YouTubers can still realize ad revenue under the program, Nintendo takes a 40 percent cut of it.Īmong the restrictions that approved Creators Program channels face is that only games on this whitelist are approved for use.
Recently, Nintendo implemented the beta version of a "Creator's Program" with tight guidelines on how Let's Play videos of its games can be broadcast. He went on to say he'd spent more than $900 on Nintendo hardware he uses in his videos but, "They need to monetize when I share my play sessions."
