Many of you may already know about or have seen videos from Joe “Angry Joe” Vargas. He's a huge YouTube personality with almost 2 million subscribers. The bulk of Joe's videos focus on gaming from various platforms. Recently however the popular YouTuber had one of his Mario Party 10 videos flagged which basically means that he can still keep the video on his channel but now he won't be able to make any money from it.

In responseto the video being flagged he took to his Twitter announcing that he will no longer be covering Nintendo on his channel.

Earlier this year Nintendo launched their Creators Program. The program allows YouTubers to upload videos with Nintendo games, so long as they get a cut of any revenue made. However, the program is in it's early stages and not every Nintendo game qualifies for it, luck would have it that Mario Party 10 happens to be one that doesn't.

Although Angry Joe won't be covering Nintendo anymore he did upload his feelings about the companies policies via one of his Angry rants which you can watch below.

What do you guys think about Nintendo’s decision to step into YouTube monetization. Is it a D*** move by Nintendo or is Angry Joe over reacting? Let us know in the comments below.
