Nintendo has been issuing copyright strikes against content creators that use gameplay footage of their games, even though it is clearly allowed by their Content Guidelines. This is mostly, but not only, Zelda Breath of the Wild content, and mostly, but not only, modded game content.
It is putting the livelihoods of those content creators in danger. Apparently the creator in question (PointCrow) hasn't heard anything back from Nintendo after contacting them about the issue.
I feel like this is yet another example of a large company acting in a way that hurts both their customers and themselves. I don't think it costs them anything to allow the creators to make that kind of content; rather it will make people more aware of their games, potentially increasing sales. The most prominent of these creators will now be very wary of posting content about the upcoming Zelda Tears of the Kingdom game which will most certainly hurt initial sales of the game.
