Emulator terkenal GBA4iOS kena DMCA kerana kesilapan seorang dev meletakkan "in-app ROM downloading". Anda boleh tahu sebab dan kenapa mereka menyuruh Github menutup laman web mereka.
“This web site hosts a downloadable mobile application for iOS that provides users with access to unauthorized and illegal copies of Nintendo’s copyright-protected video games in violation of Nintendo’s exclusive rights. Users can download the infringing application by clicking one of the ‘Download GBA4iOS’ buttons on the web site.”
Baca sepenuhnya di sini. Dan selepas beberapa minggu, Riley Testut dah menampal update kepada GBA4iOS 2.0 dan membolehkan mereka bermain dengan aman.
GBA4iOS is back from its DMCA death! Go ahead and download GBA4iOS 2.0.4 from http://t.co/2egsx0sRNS :)

Fan-games juga tidak dikecualikan. Ada beberapa games seperti Full Screen Mario dan PokemonMMO telah di-DMCA oleh Nintendo kerana "merosakkan perniagaan mereka". Ini terjadi lagi kepada Pokemon Evoas sebulan lepas. Menurut Pokemon Evoas dev, /u/th3shark
I can't say I didn't see this coming. I knew very well starting the project that I was infringing on their copyright, so I'm not going to fight this decision. In fact I'm relieved the process was rather informal, and I didn't have to wade through paperwork or get an attorney myself. Some people were wondering if it's common for pokemon fan games to be taken down. Needless to say, while it is rare, Nintendo will indeed use their C&D powers to protect their trademark. I'm honored?Apa yang terjadi jika Nintendo menutup babarapa fan-games seperti Pokemon Sage (4chan /vp/), Mother 4 ataupun Pokemon Starter Pack untuk RPG Maker XP, Pokemon Essentials?
