Nintendo has announced that the Nintendo Creator’s Program is closing as of December 31st, 2018.
The Nintendo Creator’s Program required any channel that wished to monetise any videos that contained Nintendo content to submit their channel and videos to a program.
Nintendo has said that the end of this program will mean that creators can more easily monetise any video that features Nintendo games.
Here’s their full statement:
- We are ending the Nintendo Creators Program (NCP) to make it easier for content creators to make and monetize videos that contain Nintendo game content. We will no longer ask creators to submit their videos to the NCP, and creators can continue showing their passion for Nintendo by following Nintendo’s guidelines, located at https://www.nintendo.co.jp/networkservice_guideline/index.html.
The NCP will come to a close at the end of December 2018. Please note that we are no longer accepting videos and channels, and will not review any that have been submitted, but not yet registered. The NCP website will be taken down on March 20, 2019.
We appreciate and encourage the continued support of content creators, and thank them for their dedication to helping us create smiles.
Nintendo Co., Ltd.
