Update: Just got a DM showing a Japanese streamer getting banned from this as well on Twitch, and the game has legally been out there for 8 hours. This has to be a mistake?

Sure hope so. Maybe it's some kind of automated DMCA or something and they just didn't account for different regions?

Might be Nintendo of America seeing it hasnโt released here yet. This doesnโt excuse it though

Its the NOA side for sure. They don't want story elements leaked before the Americas get it.

Nintendo probably copyrighted in game music (if it has any and you had it enabled), but this is completely fucked either way

The game is out in the US tomorrow, I don't get why they would bother at this point. I already seen the leaks anyway, and I'm happy with my purchase.

But like, can there be a class action? Where you warned to stop giving this game free publicity? Many streamers are losing very real money from having their account banned.

And this is why i donโt purchase from nintendo anymore, they tried to pull a similar crap in youtube a couple of years ago.

It honestly seems to be that once again the US think they are the centre of the universe and that these bans were on the basis that it hasn't been released there yet. This is stupid and it needs to be fixed
