Nintendo would tackle the most famous Steam mod, 20 years of trashed content?

The PC is an open platform, players do not hesitate to create and share mods to vary the pleasures, this is particularly the case on Steam. Garry Newman designed Garry’s Mod for Half-Life 2 in 2004now become a standalone and which allows you to do almost anything and everything with the SourceEngine.

In this “anything and everything”, there are notably licensed creations, something that a certain manufacturer hates. Yes, as Garry Newman announced in a brief press release, Nintendo asked the creator of Garry’s Mod to remove all creations related to his brands from the Steam Workshop, something already done. Garry didn’t even try to defend himself, stating that “it’s pretty fair” and that “this is Nintendo’s content and what they allow and what they don’t allow is up to them.” In any case, it is the common opinion that there is no point in fighting against the Japanese manufacturer.

20 years of community creations are going into the trash with this decision., “an ongoing process” according to Garry Newman, who asks users to help him by deleting their content themselves and “never downloading it again”. A page that is turning for the community of Garry’s Mod…or maybe not.

A few months ago, Internet users reported that a certain troll, identified as Aaron Peters, had fun reporting content under DMCA by pretending to be Nintendoalready requiring the deletion of content at the time for Garry’s Mod. However, after investigation, Internet users judged that it was indeed Nintendobut they saved many mods on Google Drive, Mega Drive And Pastebinfree from complaints DMCA of Steam Workshop. Garry Newman himself communicated on X (ex-Twitter) to explain thathe is aware of this possible usurpation and is investigating on his sideeven if he wants to take no risks if it is indeed a question of Nintendo.
