So Nintendo just announced their "community tournament guidelines" which basically imposes restrictive rules against anyone running a tournament with their games. Is this even legal?

Does this apply only to the EU? The definitions on the site give UK/EU-specific limitations in terms of currency and applicable regions, and I cannot seem find a comparable release on the NA site.

Edit: Did a bit more digging online and found a North American version of these terms as well, not posted in their news section but is listed in the customer support site.
