This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
This document establishes the terms of use governing access to Nintendo.com and Nintendo's related digital services in the United States. The agreement authorizes Nintendo to use any user-submitted content, including comments and images, under a perpetual, royalty-free license, and establishes Nintendo's right to suspend or terminate user access at any time. The terms prohibit account use by children under 13 and reference a separate Children's Privacy Policy for users under that age threshold.
This document governs user access to Nintendo.com and associated Nintendo websites, online services, and digital content, establishing the legal basis for use through a clickwrap agreement that the terms state becomes binding upon access or use. The agreement asserts broad intellectual property ownership over all Nintendo content, reserves the right to terminate or suspend access at any time without notice or liability, prohibits unauthorized use of Nintendo materials including reverse engineering or commercial reproduction, and states that Nintendo may modify the terms at any time with continued use constituting acceptance. The terms include a broad disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability clause that purports to exclude indirect, incidental, and consequential damages to the fullest extent permitted by law, along with a governing law clause designating Washington State as the applicable jurisdiction; the breadth of these liability exclusions may be constrained by applicable consumer protection law in various jurisdictions, including EU member states where such blanket exclusions are often unenforceable against consumers. The document engages COPPA by restricting service access to users aged 13 and over and directing parents to separate parental controls guidance, and its data collection and third-party sharing disclosures interact with the FTC Act, CCPA for California residents, and GDPR for EU/EEA users, though the Terms of Use itself defers detailed data practices to a separate Privacy Policy. Compliance teams should note that the scope of the terms extends to user-generated content submissions, for which Nintendo claims a broad royalty-free license, and that the absence of a mandatory arbitration clause distinguishes this document from many comparable platform terms.
