So bashing religion is worst then all the gore and shit in it?

Amazing.

Good luck with that when Wii U comes out. Wasn't Battlefield 3, Ninja Gaiden III and Darksiders 2 supposed to be released on that system?
And yeah right, critizising religion sure is worse than blood and gore. Just let the parental locks do their work and publish it, Nintendo.

Well yeah kind of, in the way that people are fine with gore but bashing religion can cause a shit storm and it's something that Nintendo would like to avoid. But in the comments someone is saying that it's coming the the 360 at least so that's good.

I don't think that was licensed by Nintendo though.

But they did make [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil_World"]Devil World[/URL].

Didn't realize games could be on a platform without being licensed. MY BAD.

Console games, I mean.

So if his mom wanting to kill him wasn't caused by voices, but by something else. Everything would be fine?

It's pretty sad that games companies like Nintendo refuse to let anyone push the envelope. He's right, thank God for the PC.

[RadioJoNES]

Did you guys honestly expect this game to be on anything Nintendo related in the first place?

I'm still waiting for Super Meat Boy on my 3DS...

(The shield actually sparked a huge ire of Islamic groups back then)[/QUOTE]

And then Nintendo censored [i]themselves[/i] in future re-releases to eliminate that, the Fire Temple's islamic chant, and [b]blood[/b]. :v:
