[/url] The popular long-running Source-engine physics sandbox Garry’s Mod has begun to take down Nintendo-related items from the game’s Steam Workshop page, following an apparent takedown request from Nintendo.
In a Steam Community news post, mod creator Garry Newman writes that some items have already been taken down as part of an “ongoing process, as we have 20 years of uploads to go through.” Indeed, combing through the over 1.8 million Garry’s Mod Steam Workshop add-ons to find all of Nintendo’s copyrighted content is sure to be a significant task. A simple search for Pokemon Thursday morning turns up nearly 3,000 seemingly copyright-infringing results on its own.
“If you want to help us by deleting your Nintendo-related uploads and never uploading them again, that would help us a lot,” Newman jokes in the announcement post.
