Nintendo Bans Then Unbans Streaming of Super Smash Bros. Melee At EVO

After supporters of the game raised $58,000 bucks for charity just to get the game into EVO, Nintendo banned it from being streamed. I guess it had something to do with a change in their streaming policy that doesn't allow for players to profit from their content. They received a ton of flack for it though and found a way to ensure that they would profit from it and so lifted the ban. I know Smash Bros is popular, but I never imagined that "Melee" for the Gamecube was somehow the cream of the crop. I guess I'll check it out... on my X-Box. Via Kotaku
