Post subject: | Help! Nintendo's After my Fanmade Vidya Games! |
Mario Fan Games Galaxy is a website dedicated to the creation of fanmade works such as games and other resources and has been around since 2001 in some form. A topic that is frequently brought up is “Aren't you afraid that Nintendo is going to take you down?” On behalf of MFGG, I'd like to let you know that we do not share such concerns. The most recent takedowns that have inspired such concerns are Another Metroid 2 Remake and Pokemon Uranium. There are a number of factors to consider in regards to why Nintendo took these projects down such as:

If you'd like to hear from Reggie Fils Aime himself on Nintendo’s stance on fan works, check out the following article from Twinfinite: http://twinfinite.net/2017/06/reggie-fi ... -fan-made/ Remember, if Super Mario Blue Twilight DX by BlazeHedgehog survived appearing on Television (specifically G4), then your projects are probably safe. With your help, we'd love to end this fear that Nintendo’s going to put a stop to our passionate projects. Thanks for listening and for all you do for our community! |
