Furthermore, Nintendo’s action has in fact caused quite a bit of trouble for fans.

Nintendo’s action actually got protests from Smash Bros fans. The reason is, the Twitter account AnimalTV reported that Nintendo asked YouTube to remove various videos featuring mod of the game.

Some videos like mod Cosmetics for Mario or replacing Terry Bogard with Goku were targets for Nintendo. Furthermore, from the information circulating, Nintendo did ask YouTube to take down the video because it didn’t want its intellectual property to be changed.

Even so, these Modders did not actually ask fans to pirate the game. Because, mostly mod in Super Smash Bros Ultimate, it’s only cosmetic, for example, new costumes or character models. Of course, Nintendo’s actions can cause quite serious problems.

Furthermore, this is quite old data and it is likely that the sales figures for Super Smash Bros Ultimate have already reached 20 million copies. Even so, this can be an illustration that the game is indeed very popular.
