@dleec8 It's really ironic that you can't even see it's you who's trying way harder than anyone else to make some counter-point here about PC/outrage culture not really being a real thing or whatever. lol

I simply want Mother 3 to get an official English translation. I think there's no genuinely good excuse for not giving gamers and fans this. And I'm saying so.

If the rumour is true and Nintendo isn't doing it for the reasons listed then my comments are 100% legit and warranted. If this is why we don't get an English version of Mother 3 then Nintendo is being just as utterly dumb about this game as it was back in the day when it wouldn't let the developers put blood in the SNES version of Mortal Kombat.

And, by the way, look how badly that moronic no blood in Mortal Kombat decision worked out for Nintendo: Even to this day it still carries that whole negative "kiddie" label/tag/connotation partly as a directly result of that one idiotic and short-sighted decision it made like 30 years ago. When we all know now that including the blood would have ultimately done no harm whatsoever, and actually would have likely worked out far, far, far better for Nintendo in so many ways, from sales to image and so on. Parent's get worked up for two minutes, if they even bother in the first place, but passionate gamers remember for a lot, lot longer than that. Remember when Nintendo used to rule the game industry, and then Sony--who had the exact opposite of a blinkered and restrictive kiddie image at the time--came along and blew it out the water (and has pretty much ruled the industry since).

And the fact I can give you an actual 100% legit and concrete example of how stupid and short-sighted Nintendo can be about such things is testament to the fact that it's not me who's overreacting about not getting the game but Nintendo who's overreacting in not giving fans this seminal game--yes, if the rumours are true, because it's stupidly reacting and pandering to the utterly idiotic, ignorant and misguided OTT PC culture of our times.

Basically, we all know fine well there's no legitimately good reason for Nintendo not releasing this game--its thinking is totally and utterly flawed and blinkered and short-sighted and misguide and just dumb--and that's all I'm really saying.

But your comments are just a twit going off on one for whatever reason.

You've clearly got a bee in your bonnet when it comes to outspoken, brutally honest and blunt, but still actually correct people like me. lol

The real irony here, however, is that after such debates about political correctness and the likes, whether you're arguing against it or for it or whatever, Mother 3's entire story and premise, with all its little messages and wisdoms and life lessons, just makes even more sense and is even more profound and apt right now than ever--such is its genius.

And that's why gamers deserve this masterpiece--rather than cowardice on Nintendo's part.
