Nintendo Creators Program shares ad revenue with YouTube users
The beta is currently offering 60 percent of ad revenue for individual videos attached to the program, and 70 percent for channels. Nintendo will calculate revenue shares on a monthly basis before sending them out to video creators via Paypal. Furthermore, videos and channels have to be approved by Nintendo before the company begins doling out the cash, and the big N says that process can take up to three business days.
Nintendo first announced plans for what's become the Nintendo Creators Program back in May 2014, following its controversial move to issue Content ID Match claims the year before. The company sparked particular ire when it requested Super Smash Bros. Melee's removal from the 2013 EVO championships based on revenue claims, though it quickly backed down from that particular fight.
There's no word on when the service will launch in full, though we may hear more during Nintendo's upcoming Q3 investors briefing. That was due to take place today, but Nintendo postponed it as company CEO Saturo Iwata is currently ill with suspected influenza.

zez Why do all of the replies on articles look like they come from 11 year olds? Barely any actual opinions or content in their words, why do they bother commenting?
Get post count up, get the MVC badge. I bet most people don't even read the articles.

Don't understand this, Nintendo are basically turning down free advertising, I buy the majority of my games based on youtube reviews or samples of gameplay, Nintendo are making a big mistake.

From the videos that I have seen, this hurts so many YouTubers that play Nintendo games. You would think that after the 2013 blunder that nintendo had with youtube, they would have learned. I guess they didnt.
