The official White House account on the social network X has once again found itself in the spotlight of the gaming community over the publication of AI-generated materials using Nintendo's intellectual property.
Ocarina of Time Again
In recent posts, the US administration used the style and music from the cult game The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. In the AI-generated videos, the game's logo was modified, and the visuals imitated Nintendo 64-era graphics alongside the use of the original soundtrack and famous phrases from the franchise.
Copyright Issues
Despite criticism, such materials continue to appear on official social media.
- Nintendo did not grant official permission to use its gaming franchises for political posts.
- All content was generated using artificial intelligence without the involvement of copyright holders.
Nintendo traditionally takes a very strict approach to copyright protection, so fans are awaiting an official response from the Japanese company.
