I'm sure most of you would think there's no point in discussing the Nintendo Creators Program at this point, but with the upcoming release of the Nintendo Switch, I think it would greatly benefit Nintendo to get as much exposure from as many of YouTube's gaming taste-makers and trend-setters as possible.
I mean, I don't know about everyone else, but I want the Switch and its games to get as much exposure and find as much success as possible.
Of course the simple solution would seem to be for Nintendo to just scrap the Creators Program and let everyone use footage from Nintendo's games free of charge; however, I strongly doubt Nintendo would do this. I mean, hey, it could happen (allowing the use of gaming footage free of charge is industry standard after all), but that doesn't sound like the Nintendo I know.
I think it's far more likely that Nintendo isn't yet ready to give up on the Creators Program, but if they're going to keep it around, it will need a serious overhaul in order to become more appealing to those influential YouTubers.
Luckily for Nintendo, I'm full of opinions no one asked to hear, and some of those might just be the solution to fixing the Nintendo Creators Program.
