Nintendo getting a high volume of videos for Creator’s Program, will process them “as quickly as possible”
Nintendo kicked off a beta version of its new Creator’s Program on YouTube last week. If you missed out on the news, it’s essentially a program that allows YouTube users to earn a percentage of revenue from certain Nintendo-related content.
Nintendo said on its website that videos are processed in “two to three days.” However, there are reports that many YouTube users have not yet seen approval on their first round of creations. Nintendo at least seems to be aware of the problem – which was caused by a high volume of applications – and will look to process videos “as quickly as possible.”
The full statement reads:
Thank you very much for participating in the Nintendo Creators Program. Due to your enthusiasm for the program, we’re receiving a higher volume of applications to register channels & videos than expected.
