Modding can sometimes come in the way of developers trying to build their game the way they deem fit. In this case, Nintendo laid out an attack on Zelda Breath of the wild Modder Waikuteru for breaching its policies. The YouTuber runs a famous Zelda-themed channel with nearly 20k subscribers.
The YouTuber has been making modded content related to the game ever since it came out, but it looks like their time on the platform could come to a close soon.
The YouTuber has reported that nearly 40 videos from his channel were struck down and removed from the platform. They fear the complete removal of their channel and are desperately trying to keep it afloat with the help of the community over discord.

As reported by Nintendolife, here’s what the YouTuber had to say:
“Nintendo attacked my channel and took down 40 videos so far. If this continues, the channel will be blank within a week. I know that a lot of you guys like mods, hence the subscription. There is only one way to change the termination of Nintendo mods and that is to convince Nintendo with a large number of people to change their mind. The goal is to gather that many people together that Nintendo has to listen to us.”
