  The biggest offender is obviously Nitendo who so far is one of the only companies that feel the need to police their content. I mean seriously now? Why so paranoid Nitendo?

  
  ...What?
  Nintendo moderates their services so their services can be family friendly used by everyone.
  People don't want to see dick drawings on MiiVerse, and parents don't want their kids to either.
  
  YouTube is doing this to avoid losing money from possible lawsuits from other companies. The two are very different.

  They're consoles are the only ones that also make it a pain to record game footage on which is extremely annoying. .

  
  No they're not. You must not know how to properly record gameplay footage then.
  Nintendo consoles are straight forward when it comes to recording footage

  I can actually say that like 50% of the channels I subscribed to were due to a Let's Play.

  
  
  Let's Plays are main reason we have this. People uploading videos of them playing a game from start to finish, it's the video game equivalent of uploading a full movie/music album on YouTube.
  
  You can try defending them and hating on YouTube all you want, but Let's Players are the main reason why have this in the first place.
  
  And the "BUT IT'S FREE PUBLICITY!!!!" isn't a valid excuse.
  
  

  Quote from EphraDaMan;1178318:

  ...I wonder if Nintendo (and several other companies) would still be bothered at all if they released games on Steam...? I doubt they'd lose money that way. :whistle:

  
  Not going to happen.
  
  

  Quote from Osayidan;1178892:

  At the cost of all the other ones... like sending a nuke to get rid of a house fly.

  
  Not really.
  Despite what people think YouTube isn't the bad guy here.
  It's not uncommon for YouTubers to ask publishers/developers if they can upload videos of their games, in fact it's how people like NothernLion get games before the release date and due their first impression/reviews and even upload (their) gameplay footage.
  
  So yeah, in a sense it is like "sending a nuke to get rid of a house fly", but only to the people who didn't ask permission and had no right to upload content that they weren't allowed too.
  
  Plus, there are many other alternatives since YouTube isn't the only video uploading site. The people who dislike this so much can make their own website and upload their own videos there, ClassicGameRoom has already switched from YouTube to their own site.

  Enlighten me. Give me one way I can record Nitendo 3DS Footage to upload to Youtube with the system out of the box.

  Oh god, are you talking handhelds? Jesus Christ, this makes what you said even more idiotic.
  
  I don't know if you know this, but handhelds are not designed to record gameplay because there's a screen that's apart of the console and that makes it more difficult than home consoles.
  This goes for every handheld console, not just Nintendo's.
  
  The only way you can record video on a handheld is either
  

  
  If your handheld can output video to a T.V. in that case you use (an external)capture card

  
  

  If you mod your console with a capture card embedded onto the console('s motherboard)

  
  
  As I said before this goes for all handheld consoles, not just Nitnendo's. You're still wrong.
  
  But if you really want to know how to record footage on your 3DS and upload it to youtube
  You can wait for Loopy to get more capture boards and order via this URL
  
  Or buy from here

  All right smarty pants seeing that you want to go out and call me idiotic. Name me one Nitendo console you can record on that doesn't require a capture card and I'll admit you are right and worth listening to. (If you hadn't started throwing around words like idiotic I might have been more inclined to let it lie)

  I was bored, my relationship with his channel is like my relationship with FoX.

  None. Consoles just started to have non-peripheral gameplay recording (and streaming)
  
  But honestly it's not hard by any means. Connect your capture device to a console, and connect to your PC, download the program and that's it.
  
  And this goes for all consoles, not just nintendo's. it's a very simple process.
  
  Or alternatively you can record gameplay via DVD player if it has the necessary inputs (not output)
