Re: Nintendo Provides Some Context to 2013's Tomodachi Life Same-Sex Marriage Controversy

User1988

Oh my god, why bring religion into a game like this? Stop pushing your archaic beliefs down other people's throats. Live and let live.

I'm gay. Like super gay. And I would have loved for same sex marriages to be included in this game. But the fact that you can make a Mii look however you want means I'll just make some male characters look female and switch the pronouns around in my head when I read them. It's not a huge deal, though still disappointing.

Re: Animal Crossing: New Leaf's Team Was An Even Split Of Male And Female Developers

Having both male and female devs is absolutely important if big game companies want to make more money. Yes, you can have a team full of talented males only and that game will appeal to men everywhere plus some women. But it will more than likely be completely centered around the dudebro mentality. Now, get some women in that team who will help the game appeal to more than just dudebros (specifically women and more feminine men) and of course more people are going to buy it. The fact that more game companies don't do that is beyond me. It's just good business sense to make your product appeal to more than one demographic.

Re: Soapbox: Ignoring The Objectification Of Women In Games Won't Make the Problem Go Away

That poll is proof that most of you have been brainwashed by the patriarchy. These posts saying, "sure it's sexist but whatever it's a game," are why sexism still exists. We need to be LOUD about this crap. If those were pictures of men in banana hammocks with oversized and over detailed genitalia you'd all be really f*cking uncomfortable right now. But because they're women and it's "Japanese culture" it doesn't matter? Screw that. Objectification is still objectification no matter where it comes from or who it targets and it's always disgusting.

Re: Nintendo UK Launches a New "Nintendo Girls Club" YouTube Channel

Considering the fact that almost every game out there is specifically marketed to boys and lots (not all, but you can not deny that a lot of male gamers are this way) of dudes are absolutely jerks to female gamers, I give kudos to Nintendo UK for doing this. Girls and women need a safe space where they can be gamers without men hounding us. Unfortunately, I can see men trolling the comments in these videos just because they can.

Also, it's sad to see so many women-hating comments here. It's 2014 people, grow up already. Women can kick donkey at video games, and are often better than boys at them. So get back in the garage and fix my car

I just got a Wii U for Christmas and have been playing the crap out of it. Pikmin 3 is by far my favorite game for 1 player, but 3D World is the best multiplayer game I think I've ever played. I can see why it won!

There were so many great 3DS games out this year. I can't wait for Bravely Default to come out in the US so I can see what all this commotion is about

Re: Mighty No. 9 Studio Comcept Facing Fan Backlash Over Community Manager Appointment

@JusticeColde The story would work any way the creators made it because it's fictional. If they had wanted the story to revolve around an alien race of dog-like creatures who's only way of reproduction was by splitting into two beings then it would work because that's how they created it. It just happens that they made it the way they did and could have easily changed anything.

All of these "I have nothing against women BUT...." comments are hilarious to me. The fact that you're all making such a big deal out of this is SEXIST. When a man speaks out against women it's normal and expected. When a woman says she wants to see more female leads in video games it's "OMG FEMINAZI DEMON WOMAN!!"

She's not going to change the outcome of the game just because she says a few words on a forum. Let the woman speak her mind and get over it.
