I'm not to crash hot on users talking the way they are about homosexuality. And @HylianJowi is not an admin, he is a writer. He has the same right to respond the way he thinks is appropriate as you do @Joshers744.
I understand some people (unhealthily) attach themselves to consoles. The fact is the Wii U is not the most powerful console available, and so when on a day like April Fools, why is a tweet that makes fun of that the worst think in the world?
Calm down, it was April Fools, and nobody was hurt. If you were hurt, step back from Nintendo and take a breath of fresh air. There's a lot more in the world to get worked up over, a tweet about console performance is not.
Okay. There's a few things we need to clear up here.
First of all, The Binding of Issac (the story), does not only belong to the Christian faith. As part of the Bible, it belongs to the Islamic and Jewish faith as well.
Second, @theblackdragon you are a little wrong in your description of NOA, NOE and NOJ.
You are right, NOA and NOE report back to NOJ. However, NOAU sits in the corner and plays with all his invisible friends.
@Yorumi It seems that your objections to the Binding of Issac stems from your faith.
So why should what a group of people believe affect creative control. It shouldn't and that's why the game has been released on PC and soon to be released on Sony systems.
It doesn't matter that it was a charity donation, the fact is people gave money to have Smash Bros. streamed at EVO, and until recently that was denied.
If Nintendo didn't budge, potentially that money could've been given back to those who donated. You can't offer something for money then take it without fulfilling a promise.
"Nintendo, in that respect, is still standing apart from its rivals, offering game styles and experiences that others simply aren't trying to replicate."
This is correct. But the way I see it, it's because other developers aren't trying to recreate it that it seems so pedestrian.
We know Nintendo can make these games will sell. The problem is that other developers are finding new ways to sell games ( look at Last of Us) that they don't need to replicate games that are replicating games.
@GamerJunkie No that's not how it works. Steams pre-order tiers unlock in accordance to how many people pre-order them. So far, the art book and Lost Planet have been unlocked, but you won't get the season pass at the moment.
@Captain_Blanko Of course you have spent to the time to play all the games on the App Store to make the judgement that 97% of the games are pure garbage.
@zerks Then you would've read this: “But we’re not ruling out anything in the future. We are a content creator and we want to reach as large of an audience as we can.”

Re: Nintendo Provides Some Context to 2013's Tomodachi Life Same-Sex Marriage Controversy
What the love does homosexuality have to do with getting an E rating @Meaty-cheeky?
Seriously, I'd love for you to explain how.

Re: Nintendo Provides Some Context to 2013's Tomodachi Life Same-Sex Marriage Controversy
@hiptanaka But the game doesn't force same-sex relationships on you.
Re: Nintendo Provides Some Context to 2013's Tomodachi Life Same-Sex Marriage Controversy
@rjejr Yes you can.
Then your Mii experiments with other Miis and see where it goes from there.
Re: Nintendo Provides Some Context to 2013's Tomodachi Life Same-Sex Marriage Controversy
@mystman12 What great logic.
Game has same-sex relationships, therefore I have to see my characters in same-sex relationships.
Re: EA Boss Peter Moore Apologises For Frostbite's "Stupid" Wii U April Fools Prank
Where's the apology to Valve?

Re: Mario Party: Island Tour Makes Japanese Chart Début at Number One
Yay for 200,000+ Metal Gear sales.
Re: Tyrone Rodriguez Continues to Lobby Nintendo to Approve The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
@theblackdragon I feel like that NoAU was an attack.
No AU.
Meanie.
@Yorumi I can come back with witty one liners that doesn't move the debate forward at all.
Sasquatch .

Re: Boy Credits Mario Kart After Taking Control of Car and Saving Lives When Grandmother Passed Out
I said it in the forums and I'll say it again.
The connection to Mario Kart is ridiculous.
Re: Video: New Pokémon X & Y Footage Emerges, Proves How Exciting it Really Is
Actually really excited for this. Shame about the grid movement system though.
EDIT: Saw diagonal movement. I'm happy now.
Re: Soul Calibur II HD Online Not Announced For Wii U
@Kaine_Morrison Can you prove Nintendo decided to release Earthbound because of petitions?
Re: Smash Bros. Melee EVO Tournament Broke Viewer Records
And then Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 broke that record, and then Super Street Fighter IV Arcade broke that.
Re: Nintendo Denies Permission For a Live Stream of Super Smash Bros. Melee At EVO 2013
@SCAR392 It does matter about the money though.
It doesn't matter that it was a charity donation, the fact is people gave money to have Smash Bros. streamed at EVO, and until recently that was denied.
If Nintendo didn't budge, potentially that money could've been given back to those who donated. You can't offer something for money then take it without fulfilling a promise.
Re: Pachter: Nintendo Has Lost Its "Mojo"
Just to clarify for everyone who seems to have their knickers in a knot about his NES comment.
He referred to the situation of games in 1985.
In 1985, there were 3 games released that weren't made by Nintendo.
Re: Injustice: Gods Among Us Update Sneaks Out of the Shadows
@doctor_doak New characters is now considered not new content.
Give me a break.
Re: Nintendo's Claim to WiiU.com is Denied
Cause whoever bought this in 2004 had that intention.
Re: Australia Gearing Up For Pokémon Video Game National Championships At PAX
Actually, in Australia today is the 1st.
And PAX is also on the 19th. It's the Pokemon tournament that will be on the 20th/21st.
Re: Bethesda Has No Current Plans For Wii U or Handhelds
@bahooney Because the Wii U does not have the numbers.
Re: Miyamoto: Consumers Should Have Access To Their Games "For A Long Time"
Unless I'm mistaken, the Xbox One doesn't take away a game from you once you've played it. When you buy it, it's yours.

Re: Rumour: Best Buy's Wii U E3 Demo List Revealed
Even if this is a fake, it would be highly unlikely that a day before the games are announced BestBuy would know nothing about it.
Re: Interview: Renegade Kid Praises Wii U as a "Gaming Console Through and Through"
Rief, but the Wii U is able to do both those things.
Re: Review: Animal Crossing: New Leaf (3DS)
Great review Katy.
Really looking forward to having everyone come over to Gagaville.
Re: Pachter Predicts Wii U Price Cut, Feels Nintendo Is Losing "Non-Traditional" Players To Social And Mobile
@Chrono_Cross You win.
Re: GungHo's CEO Wants To Surpass Nintendo's Sales By His Retirement
It takes being in the business for 15 years to be called a rising star?
Re: Video: A Young Person Plays Super Metroid
I understand it's meant to be a joke, but most of it isn't funny.
Re: Rumour: Retro's Wii U Title Is An Entirely New IP
Nintendo needs a new IP. So yay.
Re: Oh Snap, Now Rayman Legends Is Coming To PS Vita With Exclusive Content
Rayman Origins was already great on the Vita, so I'm sure this will be no different. I am now going to be picking this up.
Re: E3 Nintendo Direct Date and Time Confirmed
For any Australians who care, it's 12pm on the 12th for AEST.
Re: Capcom UK Cancels Resident Evil "Blood Swimming Pool" PR Stunt After Fatal Attack
It still could've gone ahead I'm sure but it was probably a smart move on Capcom's part.

Re: Rewind, EA Is In Fact Developing Games For The Wii U
I'd like to see where Jorgensen actually said this. The article posted other comments, so that one shouldn't be too hard to find.
Re: Capcom Outlines June DLC for Resident Evil Revelations
@GamerJunkie No that's not how it works. Steams pre-order tiers unlock in accordance to how many people pre-order them. So far, the art book and Lost Planet have been unlocked, but you won't get the season pass at the moment.
Re: Capcom Outlines June DLC for Resident Evil Revelations
@Einherjar The only parts of Revelations I have played are the 3DS demo and the PS3 demo.
Re: Capcom Outlines June DLC for Resident Evil Revelations
I've never played Raid mode, but seeing as how I have bought most (except for one mode) of the DLC on 6, I presume I'll buy most of this.
Re: Kevin Conroy Confirms He Will Feature in Batman: Arkham Origins
Thank god.
Re: Did Sumo Digital Just Tease A Sonic Racing And Mario Kart Crossover?
I'd only be happy if they let SEGA make the game.
Re: Capcom Unveils Quirky Unlockable Costumes for Resident Evil Revelations
You'll hear no complaints of Stripper Chris from me!
Re: EA Developing Frostbite Engine For Mobile, But Not Wii U
The Wii U hasn't got the numbers compared to mobiles.
Re: Peter Molyneux: If I were Nintendo, I'd Put Mario On The iPad
@Damo Thanks for that.
Re: Peter Molyneux: If I were Nintendo, I'd Put Mario On The iPad
@andrenoni79 Metacritic says scores between 75 and 89 are generally favourable. Not mediocre.
Re: Peter Molyneux: If I were Nintendo, I'd Put Mario On The iPad
@Dpullam In your original comment you made no reference to your personal expectations of the game. I went along with what you said.
Re: Peter Molyneux: If I were Nintendo, I'd Put Mario On The iPad
@andreoni79 78 is mediocre?
Re: Peter Molyneux: If I were Nintendo, I'd Put Mario On The iPad
@Dpullam if Fable 3 getting 80/100 on Metacritic isn't living up to expectations, then someone's expectations are too high.
Re: Peter Molyneux: If I were Nintendo, I'd Put Mario On The iPad
@Captain_Blanko Of course you have spent to the time to play all the games on the App Store to make the judgement that 97% of the games are pure garbage.
Re: Peter Molyneux: If I were Nintendo, I'd Put Mario On The iPad
I would like to read what was said after that comment, or if it just ended.
Re: Insomniac's CEO Is Open To Working On Wii U, Wants To See More Zelda, Mario And Metroid
@zerks Then you would've read this:
“But we’re not ruling out anything in the future. We are a content creator and we want to reach as large of an audience as we can.”
Insomniac aren't ignoring the Wii U.
Re: Insomniac's CEO Is Open To Working On Wii U, Wants To See More Zelda, Mario And Metroid
@zerk If you actually took the time to read the interview at Digitally Downloaded, you would see that they're not ignoring the console.
Re: Rumour: Tomodachi Collection: New Life Update to Remove Same-Sex Marriage
@8bitforever I guess that then Peach should no longer kiss Mario when he rescue's her.
Link should no longer be friends with Zelda.
Don't get me started on Pokémon breeding.
