      @@Dogmaguy74 For the past 3 months he's been plotting to get revenge on his friends and a woman he stalked a couple of years ago by doxxing and threatening them. He has two channels both called Coban Erpersonnel with videos of him spewing psycho babble about people taking advantage of him because of his mental disorder, threatening to hurt/kill people like Christine because he thinks she killed Etika and other crazy stuff. It's extremely chilling to hear how unhinged he is, way worse than Etika.
      It's sad knowing that over the 2 years he's been gone he hasn't gotten better, I don't know what he thinks he'll gain from doing this but if someone doesn't step in to stop him history could repeat itself.

      Unless I missed something, there is no Charity "Event". Dude bought Joycons (that money going to Nintendo), maybe JoyconBoyz skins, and sold them to people, and was going to donate the money to a mental health charity. There was no event. He was literally giving Nintendo his money, making some cool skins for the Joycons he bought, and gave the money he made selling those Joycons he bought and customized to a charity about mental health. All your nonsense about charity events has nothing to do with this controversy.

    I remember the day when Desmonds death broke out, sorry for my crude example, like a fucking nam flashback. I remember finding out while exiting a wallmart parking lot, and that 20 minute drive getting home was the longest in my life. I was depressed for 2 entire weeks. And I was planning to get this for Christmas as a momento of his legacy, but that can't happen anymore. This is absolutely disgusting on nintendos part as a company and from a humanitarian perspective. Fuck nintendo I will no longer support them for the foreseeable future until they fix their wrongdoings.

    Yeah I also feel like they're doing this because of what happened in the Smash scene this summer. It seems to me that everyone forgot about it so I can't blame Nintendo for shutting fan stuff down. I don't agree with it because not everyone is like that and those who did those things are gone but I understand why they don't want anything to do with them. It's still bad press though.

    I feel like a lot of people didn't watch the video fully. Especially at 3:54 talking about the Smash community. Though off-topic it was necessary to say. I'm not saying to agree with Nintendo of America but this definitely gives a better understatement of why they're doing all of this in the first place. I also heard that the Etkia Joycons can/will still be sold as long as they take out the word joycons. But at the end of the day, I'm not picking sides cause nobody is winning during or after this. The way how I see it both sides have reasons to be upset and take action, but no one is handling it well. 2020 has been destructive and I'm not going stress over this. You and others have every right to be upset, for me I just feel like it isn't worth it given this year as a whole. Glad to see you back on YT Retro, make this year a bit better for me.

    But I still feel like what you said about Nintendo pulling back from the smashing thing was probably the overall trigger to this. Cause Etika's death shook the whole ass Internet. Post videos everywhere.
    You could not escape it. When these were made Nintendo never pulled shit. This shit was popular and money was going to the places that needed it.
    But now after the smash shit, Nintendo really is pulling a Control F4 on everything.

The melee thing was maybe understandable but the Eticons is kinda too much, I can think of maybe a reason to why they won’t allow it but I think it’s too touchy to discuss but it’s a custom item so it’s weird that Nintendo wants to rid of them, I mean at that point get on the Etsy sellers that do the same thing.
