Title: Nintendo Strikes yet again!
Post by: Zhello on November 16, 2015, 08:58:08 pm
Well it happen again, Dream Mix, the creator of Zelda Maker got a C&D from Nintendo. This is what probably happened to oot2d as well.  :-\
Makes me wonder why Nintendo has so much bottled up anger for fan games being made :S.
But for me, I think the more publicity a game gets when it's not completed yet, the higher the chance Nintendo will creep out the cave and starts taking things down. There shows showing our creativity.

But Dream Mix has changed up the engine to Legend Maker, so not all hope is lost, something very good will come of it.

 XD oot2d just never got beyond a few demos because real life and stuff... people who worked on oot2d either never really thought of the work it could be or they have teammembers/themselves to caught up in real life stuff to make anything bigger than a few sprites or demos

and the thing with zelda maker was that it got too popular for its own good

It was most liekly pulled due to the name "Zelda Maker" after Nintendo has seen the success of Super Mario Maker. 

I don't want to assume too much, but that shows me there could be a chance for a Zelda Maker at some point in the future.  If he would have named it something else, there would be no issues.  As a stance for my argument, Zelda Classic has been around for almost 2 decades now if not longer.  I remember it from 2001.  I have a PC Gamer disc from back then that has Zelda Classic on it.

Nintendo could have surely pulled that down by now, but they haven't.

It is simply the fact that he called it "Zelda Maker".

Yea it's likely because of a direct competition with something they may or may not have planned.
