So Nintendo recently uploaded their E3 promotion video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbvzyY1FKr0 At 1:22 they used footage from Donkey Kong Country. It featured a glitch where you make a slide-slap with Donkey Kong. This looked suspicious so I looked into it. That part is taken from the old 101% TAS!!! https://youtu.be/8agz-TTwV14?t=2200 Just lol. Edit: Spread it! https://twitter.com/Spikestuff/status/599109303610408960

I love Nintendo promotional videos because they are so silly.
No.

Yeah, the video is awesome. I’m not sure whether I should be worried that Nintendo used TAS footage in one of their videos or not, though.

It's fair rights footage coming from TASVideo TASes so they're in the clear.

What? I was worried about us, not them.

It's Nintendo of America, not the jerks at Nintendo of Japan who takes down everything.

One cannot help but be a bit amused at how Nintendo has been so notorious in recent times about being pricks and don't caring about fair use, but they themselves don't have any problem in (ab)using fair use clauses. Reminds me of Disney. Disney is notorious about aggressively defending their IP, no matter how innocuous the use might be, going to even ridiculous extents (and also infamously lobbying for perpetual copyright to protect their Mickey Mouse IP), yet have no qualms about using works that have fallen into public domain only shortly before. (For example Disney's The Jungle Book film was made just a few years after the original book fell into public domain.)

Worse yet, they're making millions of other people's footage. Millions!

Actually that sentence is ambiguous. It could mean that NoA are the ones taking down everything, or NoJ who are doing so. Completely honestly speaking, I'm actually not sure which one you are referring.

Well, if one would say that the people who take down those videos are jerks, I'd say you have your answer there...
