Gaming Bits: Custom Robo Series
February 27, 1996, a worldwide phenomenon was born. A dream project of a little company known as Game Freak we all know as Pokemon was created. At first it wasn't that popular, but with huge deals with Media Factory, TV Tokyo, Tomy, and Corocoro Comic lead to a craze all over japan, with card games, anime, manga, toys, controversial headlines in the news, events, and yes, even imitators, everyone from Bandai, to Tecmo, to Imagineer, to Konami, to even Nintendo themselves tried to challenge the almighty Pokemon with various degrees of success.

Basically put, if you still want to make a living off of Nintendo games, you either A) have to give 30% of your paycheck to the big N, only produce videos on games on the list (and no, that doesn't include Pokemon, Smash, or others...), and not include other copyrighted clips, or B) Put some of your videos on review (which could take a damn long time because Nintendo), give 40% of your money to your employer, and it's the same basic details. If other companies follow suit, it'll lead to a snowball effect leading to creator programs that screw over their employers and we'll probably have a de facto SOPA for online videos unless you get permission from your employer, and lets plays and reviews will never be the same again.
On a more positive note, we'll be getting a live action Netflix Exclusive Zelda series, which'll be a more family friendly Game of Thrones. I'm really cautious, I'd like to see how this turns out. That's all i got considering they just announced this at the time of me writing this.
Now back to your regularly scheduled programming...
