Kinda like Animal Crossing, but with more user creation tools and agency. Yesterday, after some protestations, Nintendo explained that you wouldnt be able to have a homosexual relationship in the game. This is a problem. The reasons that its a problem are, to me, obvious. The decision is needless and alienating. The statement in Nintendos press release is also one of the slimiest things Ive ever seen emerge from a video game company. Thousands, if not millions of Nintendo fans will be poorly represented. Here are five arguments Ive seen in favor of Nintendo, and Id like to address just why theyre all bullshit, one by one. Good? Good."
