 Hey everyone welcome to another video today. Oh, I'm excited. We're gonna be live streaming tonight, by the way Can confirm. I am getting Super Mario 3d world plus Bowser's Fury Eric from the Nintendo Prime podcast and myself are gonna go pick it up Feels weird saying from the Nintendo Prime podcast still working on rebooting it We're building a new set. I'm gonna do some teases of that set down the line So stay tuned for that. It's gonna be pretty cool but the big thing that I want to bring up here is Microsoft made a big hoop see so we know Microsoft and Nintendo have been super tight, right like super super tight But I don't think they were so tight that they were gonna promote something Nintendo's with actively legally fighting against Microsoft made a big whoop see and threw out there on Twitter that you could use That you could use their browser or Microsoft edge to basically illegally play ROMs Yeah, that's a thing It's something they actually promote it before we get into that I'm gonna remind you we don't have a giveaway going out for a $99 each gift card Head down to the description or the pin comment to find out how to enter for that Beyond all that. Yes, folks. I am streaming tonight 8 p.m. CT Supermine 3d will post about the fear right here on YouTube and then I'm gonna also be streaming it tomorrow Not sure what time yet, but I'll be doing that over on twitch at twitch.tv slash internet prime TV It's just a special long stream today. I'll get some more game streams going on over at twitch here in the next week All right, let's get into this because Wow, so I had to go to reset era Because the tweet has since been deleted But I'll show you that the tweet existed. We'll click on this guy in a moment, but here's the original tweet It says Microsoft Edge dev This is an official Microsoft account on Twitter for developers on Microsoft You know for Microsoft Edge for for their browser that is chromium-based. That's right Gone is internet Explorer for those who don't know it's now Microsoft Edge. It's a brand newish browser That's built on Chrome. So it's actually a really decent browser because it's a chromium browser There's actually like dozens of these chromium browsers out there, but Edge is actually not too shabby You know they're trying to make it so you don't just use Microsoft's browser to download Chrome Hey, look, we're already giving you Chrome sort of but obviously it's own extensions and all that So it says calling all Pac-Man, Tetris and Mario Kart lovers. Okay, you got me intrigued Did you know Microsoft Edge has these plus more vintage games on the extension site? See the full list and then it gives a full list edge extensions browser extensions and it makes you wonder Okay, maybe Pac-Man and Tetris. Maybe they got some licensees to allow those for extensions with Mario Kart Nintendo allowed Mario Kart to be playable through an extension in a browser That does not sound very Nintendo like this is the Nintendo that's been shutting down everything This this does not sound right to me. Alright, scroll down Jordan Chase responds The only Mario Kart 64 extension downloads a rom of the N64 game This is over the street. It's over the street. Here it is Here's what it downloads it downloads a rom so sure you can play Mario Kart 64 through an extension on Microsoft Edge Yep, but it uses a rom and here it is it goes from Neptune.js that XYZ slash rom slash N64 Etc. Etc. Etc. It's a rom You're telling me Nintendo was cool With you telling people publicly to go download an extension that allows you to play an illegal rom after all the lawsuits Nintendo is that going on? Yeah, let's just say Nintendo probably wasn't too happy with that and that is why when you click on the screen you go to the response The tweet has been deleted It's interesting because Tetris doesn't download a rom But it's not endorsed by the company So apparently, you know, it's pretty obvious that well, it's just like a JavaScript version of the game It's not and you're like, how do you know? Well, I'm I'm actually in programming right now I know dodges is JavaScript So I'm actually programming in Java right now in my classes, but yeah, so I can actually make this game right now Yeah, I actually know how to make it, but that's that's the point It's clearly not the official version of Tetris And then same things for for Pac-Man. It's just another clone So basically these are just illegal versions of these games and Microsoft. I mean, I got a look at this again Microsoft Advertised this what the hell? What the hell? I mean did someone get fired for this? I seriously got a wonder It's obviously a big oopsie to promote this It's not like we don't know these ROMs are widely available right ROMs for Tetris Pac-Man Any of these old-school games Mario 64 Mario Kart 64 that we know these games are widely and easily gettable And if you don't think they are it's just because you have never tried to look for them because you've had no interest in it as Someone who was a 90s kid grew up with the early stages of the internet going into the early 2000s and absolutely did Emulate games back then I don't anymore But I did back then and someone who actively participated in that emulation crowd Let me just say that like it's super easy to get these it's still super It's even easier to get them today despite Nintendo shutting down several popular ROM websites. There's always more There's always another one. There's always You know networks behind the scenes and and line wire and different ways to seed the game from other people Basically, once these things are on the internet, they're not going anywhere whether they're dumped Clone javascript versions or whether we're talking about actual ROMs of the real game What I find just fascinating is that whoever put up this tweet, which is clearly someone from the Microsoft You know that there are their account management team there There's social media management team because there is a huge separation that a lot of these major corporations And here's the social media team and then here's like the actual developers the social media team isn't always Up-to-date on what it what's exactly legal They see they see something really cool that they think would be a big promotion for their browser And they go let's tweet about it because like this is so cool. It's so cool that you can play these games You can't do this on Chrome. You can't do this on Firefox But you could do this right here on our browser through an extension Not realizing that the whole reason you can't do it on those other ones is because it's against the law Because they're illegal those extensions shouldn't be allowed now Obviously, we know extensions exist outside of the usual usual stores and everything But there's a reason you can't go to the Google store for Chrome and add an extension that lets you play Mario Kart Pac-Man and Tetris Because it's against the law and they would get sued if they allowed it to be on their store So like Microsoft basically pointed out. Hey, look, we don't mind to do our store as well as others Come look at these cool features. I don't even know if the extension still up I think it was up when when I first checked this story. You can still get the extensions if you bother to go look for them I don't know Microsoft plans to take them down I assume so but whoever pointed this out not only kind of ruined it for people that maybe knew about these extensions But was we're keeping mum on it It's kind of like when there's like a really amazing Epically awesome fan game and you don't want it shut down by Nintendo The best thing to do is really not talk about it Obviously by the time it reaches my ears and I see it chances are it's already been publicized So it's too late for that but it's very interesting to see stuff like this where Microsoft or someone at Microsoft on that team made a pretty big boo boo In promoting something that could literally get Microsoft sued by the makers of Tetris Pac-Man and obviously Nintendo when it comes to Mario Kart It's a lawsuit waiting to happen now because it was quickly taken down I think as long as they end up taking down the extensions as well That's fine, but here's the thing What if there's other extensions available through their store for other games like Pokemon and all that that people just haven't been paying attention to because It's not that popular of a browser despite being installed by default on every single Install of Windows 10 so it'll be interesting To see if anything legally comes out of this I have a feeling that Microsoft's just gonna crack down more on their store Which you know sucks for those people that were enjoying the fact that Microsoft wasn't cracking down and for this person I don't know if they lost their job I Could see this being a job Losing moment for somebody and as much as I don't wish it will on someone It's a pretty dumb silly thing to do to point to something that is Widely known to be illegal and not understand the legalities of that So again, I don't know who did it what social media person did it and if anyone lost a job over it But I would not be shocked because this is something that could have got Microsoft in trouble big time I doubt it's going to in the end Microsoft was clearly on top of it. It'll eat was tweeted within minutes. It's clearly somebody knew. Hey, this isn't cool but damn and Microsoft made a big boo boo here. I Usually don't see these mistakes by like these big corporations Now it's kind of a it's a two-fold mistake, by the way It's not just the social media people that screwed up Who's ever managing their extension store should have never allowed these extensions to be published So like that's another thing too It's a failure at multiple levels at Microsoft to allow this tweet to go out and allow the extensions to exist in the first place Maybe the guy at Who's running the social media account might be saved by the fact that he was just promoting something that was approved for the store It's not his fault or their fault or her fault. It's fault that this happened whatever pronoun they want to go by So anyways, that's just my thoughts and that you guys let me know We did get this down in the comments below how hopefully you enjoy this video You like to subscribe all agenda see a bunch of you guys at tonight's stream I know a lot of you guys are already playing the game Maybe I'll put up a poll later about what you guys want to see me start the game with first You want to see me go straight in the Bowser's Fury mode Would you rather me focus on the actual core game, which I love the core game? We're gonna beat it all doesn't matter you guys let me know In the poll I'm gonna put up in the community page. Otherwise. See you guys in the next video
