You’ve seen Reggie’s Animal Crossing: New Leaf house in video form. But how would you like to actually visit it?
Reggie’s house will soon be distributed through SpotPass. It will be located at the Happy Home Showcase – that’s between the post office and the Nook store on Main Street.
Nintendo could very well be softening its stance towards “Let’s Play” videos on YouTube. Zack Scott, one of the more-recognized uploaders involved with this type of content, believes the Big N could be changing its ways. Ad earnings on one of his videos stopped on May 14, but resumed a little over a week later.
Kotaku actually asked Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime about the situation at E3 2013. He said:
“We love our fans. We appreciate everything that our fans do. We had to take this formal step to be very clear about our IP.”
Reggie added, “the fans need to understand that we see the issue, we understand the issue, but, right now, all we’ve done is take the first step to protect our IP.”
Nintendo is obviously allowed to do what it sees fit with its IP, but backing off “Let’s Play” videos may be for the best.
