They released 3 full fire emblem games. 3 FULL games.
it is irrelevant
Big difference between a movie based on real events and a petting minigame.
Difference, a movie is 2 hours, this is 100 hours.
Not only is it not censorship it is not a big deal. 30 minutes in a 100 hour experience is nothing. Things have been altered and changed for jrpg releases in the west for 30 years, nothing is new here. Nintendo has the right to change whatever they want. In this case, the content was so offensive, women gamers/journalists from all over the industry are praising the move.
Bottom line. Nintendo is giving us 2.5 Fire Emblem games at a single time, and for the sake of the localization and decency they removed 30 minutes of optional content that was offending a lot of people in a 100 hour experience. Not a big deal.
Considering Fates has the highest preorder total of any FE game in the West, it is really not a big deal.
Not only is it actually not 40 minutes, it is optional, offensive, and a miniscule amount of content in the overall picture of the game.
You are the only one spinning it as negative censorship yes.
"offering insight on the characters that you don't get in other areas of the game." BS.
"And you can be sure that more will come." hahaha
The only thing coming is fantastic reviews over the next week.
It is a female petting minigame. Lets be honest about it.
Please, tell us all how a single mini-game= a large amount of content in 2.5 Fire Emblem games?
Notice how yours is the only article making a stink about this. The rest of us are getting ready to play the game.
"Oh, and "publisher of the year" according to whom?"
ign, usgamer, edge and plenty of other respected publications.
"The sole f...
"We ban only the rude ones that can't resist the temptation to mix their arguments with personal attacks, insults and attempts to misinform, like you." Then you should ban yourself then, because that describes you too.
"If you think a localization team can or should be allowed to do "whatever the hell they want" with the media they have to localize, you're even more detached from reality that you seem to be."
That is what...
The actual definition of censorship is when an outside governmental authority, limits what can and cannot be said.
When Nintendo is making the decisions, that is not censorship.
"Incidentally, other developers and publishers have absolutely no problem making that kind of content "fly in the west." Small nothing studios who are not Nintendo trying to grow Fire Emblem. Namco messes with Tales, Square messes with FF and DQ, all the major JRPGs hav...
Oh? Dualshockers pretending Nintendo is censoring content again? Is Abriael banning everyone who disagrees with him again?
What a joke.
The treehouse making a decision what they think will fly in the west, is not censorship. Considering almost everywhere I see on twitter, people responding to me on twitter are thankful it is being removed, they made the right move.
We are getting 2 GOTY level Fire Emblem games and they removed less than .000...
good games
36/40 is a great score, top selling FE ever in Japan.
A few
I love the gamepad.
Great news. Intelligent Systems is one of the best devs
Yeah, they only made the GOTY fire emblem game coming out next month.
Not going to happen
Captain Toad? You are acting like this is new and horrible when it is not a big deal at all.
The comments here are embarrassing. Nintendo is releasing 3 full FE games and still people who do not know anything are complaining.
