Garry's Mod Is Removing Nintendo-Related Content In Acknowledgement Of The Company's Wishes

Stop ruining things for us, Nintendo!

Recently, there have been notable removals of Nintendo-related content from the Steam Workshop for Garry's Mod. This action was initiated by Nintendo themselves, signaling their stance on the use of their intellectual property within the sandbox game/platform that has existed since 2006.

Obviously, Nintendo holds the rights to their content and has the authority to dictate its usage (from a legal standpoint).

In response to Nintendo's takedowns, people aren’t happy. Facepunch Studios has acknowledged that it’s fair that Nintendo maintains control over how their assets are utilized, even within fan-made creations like those in Garry's Mod. 

That said, the removal process is ongoing, given the extensive backlog of Nintendo-related uploads accumulated over the past two decades. To expedite this process, creators are encouraged to voluntarily remove any Nintendo-related uploads and refrain from re-uploading them in the future.
