Ein junges Team hatte sich vor rund drei Jahren die Mühe gemacht, einen eigenen, kleinen Film rund um das Videospiel The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time zu drehen. Dieser wurde jetzt auch fertig gestellt und feierte letzten Monat seine Premiere. Mit einer Partnerschaft zusammen mit DailyMotion konnte man sich das Fan-Projekt kostenlos anschauen. Jetzt hat Nintendo aber einen Strich durch die Rechnung gemacht. Sie möchten nicht, dass das Projekt weiterhin verfügbar ist. Weitere Infos könnt ihr aus der offiziellen Mitteilung von der offiziellen Webseite entnehmen.
ZitatAlles anzeigen“Hey, everyone. We just wanted to let you know that Dec. 31 was the last day that The Hero of Time was available for viewing. We came to an agreement with Nintendo earlier this month to stop distributing the film. In the spirit of the holiday season they were good enough to let us keep the movie up for you to watch and enjoy through the end of 2009, but not past 2009.
We understand Nintendo’s right to protect its characters and trademarks and understand how in order to keep their property unspoiled by fan’s interpretation of the franchise, Nintendo needs to protect itself — even from fan-works with good intentions.
This has been quite an adventure for us and we have a real sense of peace bringing the project to a close. Between the screenings and the online release many of you were able to see the film and we hope to not have only inspired those of you that live, breathe and dream Zelda but we also hope to have inspired all of you aspiring filmmakers out there!
Thank you again for all your patience with the project and we hope you had as much fun watching our movie as we did making it. Thanks for all your wonderful messages of encouragement and support! I’m sure our next project will be right around the corner! No, it’s not Majora’s Mask : )”
