There’s been some talk with Far Cry 5 that Ubisoft’s game is being political based on its setting. The National approached Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime about the situation, and his response was hardly surprising.

“Making political statements are for other people to do,” he said. “We want people to smile and have fun when they play our games.”


The other companies can learn a thing or two.

f*** yeah, that's why we can get girls like Twintelle and Pyra from Nintendo games tbh. I just feel like they're the only ones making attractive female characters anymore. I'm sure people will prove me wrong, oh yeah 2B is a great recent example actually.

But yeah aside from that, their stance is admirable.

Can someone tell me how shooting up a crazy religious cult is a political statement? Is the statement that crazy cults are bad?

2B's ass is the game's only selling point to those unfamiliar with the series (aka 95% of gamers), that's a horrible example

Games aren't art

They combine visual art, musical arts, and the art of storytelling.

They are factually art.

This guy so triggered by Nintendo he's arguing in favor of political statements in video games.

this guy so triggered by video games having the capacity for social commentary and for making people think about the world and themselves like all forms of art are capable of that he's making a ridiculous s***post like this one

Really? Mona Lisa's purpose to me is to capture the idea of subtle beauty and immortalize it. RE4 is to deliver an ass-kicking zombie killing action. It's hardly the same thing. For another, Mona Lisa's only input required is interpretation. In RE4, the player paints much of its action as the creators. It's fundamentally different

Calling video games "art" makes no sense because they have more than just art in them.

Same with calling them sports. Video games are f***ing video games.

The visuals, music, stories. That's the art

There's also the part you f***ing play. That's the game

Put it all together and you've got a video game. Not art.

nintendo has the proven business model and they constantly make money while other companies take losses. playstation is the best overall platform imo but nintendo is a proven brand and i buy every new one because they have the best first party titles by far

I hate to agree with Marth but this.

Also didn't they censor one of the romances in FE Birthright/Conquest completely for political reasons?

Of course that statement undermines their whole entire history as a video game publisher. They've been SJWs before that was even a concept. You should check out what that seal they put on their games actually entails.
