But.....the streamers have to buy the games to play them to stream them? And if it's a free game his point is even more moot? Get this fuck stick outta here

Honestly I'm surprised that some game companies like EA hasn't taken money from streamers playing their games on Twitch.

It would depend on the license that came with the game, I've never bothered to read one, but they could easily add some language similar to movie and music licenses that exist.

They might have some difficulty in court over it depending on the judge (movies and music have value specifically derived through audio visual consumption, but most would argue a a games primary value is through the interaction)

Funny thing, someone who was on Alex's side actually said "we should stop using interactive medium as a defense against this." When that's literally the only thing that distinguishes games from other media, lmao.

The reason it's used is because you still have a reason to buy a game after you watch someone play it, as it's unique in that experiences change with each person.
Watching a movie, reading a book, listening to music is gonna be the same experience every time.

They never stopped people from streaming their games, but they were very claim happy about music and such. Though it was probably more them Running an algorithm and didnt care if it was someone uploading the music vs gameplay.

It would cause anyone who uploaded to YouTube to lose monetization on those videos. which caused a lot of streamers and such to avoid Nintendo.

But they have gotten less claim happy from my understanding.

whats kinda funny about this tweet is that developers will literally hand out free keys to their games to streamers if they are popular enough.

There is no downside to letting people stream your game though. Its stupid easy advertising.

a company charging streamers to stream their games would backfire. Instead of playing the new Rogue Squadron theyd stream something else instead.

Any idiot who thinks this should look at Fall Guys and Among Us. Those two games became 2020 icons due to streaming.

FWIW, I watched a stream of that Mario collection a few weeks ago and the streamer said that Nintendo sent her a copy. I think they realized that streaming/Youtube is just free advertising.

The fact he isn't actually head of Stadia and is just using that for clout due to being vaguely associated with it makes him even more pathetic, IMO.

Alex even cropped out the artist's signature and didn't give credit. Extremely hypocritical of the guy.

If they started doing that then people won't play their games on stream

If it became a normal practice then streaming in general would die off in a huge way

Game dev 1: "You can stream our games, provided you pay us."
Game dev 2: "You can stream our games for free!"

Guess which dev's game will be more popular?

Streamers are free advertising, plus they're essentially long-form video game reviewers because they're adding commentary and perspective.
