Something isn't sanctioned by the government in all States. Putting it in the game gives the idea that you disagree with the laws as is. That is a political statement. You can't comprehend how a major company would want to outright avoid something like that for fear of controversy? It blew up in their face anyway but I can understand why they thought that was the right decision.

And, again, why was NINTENDO singled out when a gazillion games don't offer this. Can you have same-sex marriage in Harvest Moon?
Wut? You can murder prostitutes in GTA and I'm fairly certain that's not a political statement or a disagreement with the law, it's just a video game.

Well I wouldn't see it as such but some of the moral watchdog groups sure see violence in videogames as an endorsement of it. I guess that's really a political statement since there isn't any movement I know of arguing that murdering prostitutes should be legal, but it can be taken as a statement in general.

Same-sex marriage is a hot political issue right now. Nintendo didn't get want to get involved and I can totally understand why a company would want to remain as politically neutral as possible. I think they thought that by not offering it they weren't taking a side but it ended up being seen as taking the side against same-sex marriage.

What in the ****

Gotta love the ever-present broodwars and his ever-present negativity.

Yeah, I think I'm gonna move to Sony World Report because some of the reactions I've seen here is ridiculous.

So a guy on reddit edited Zuko's journey from season one and two into a 2 hour and 50 minute film. It's pretty good besides a few choice editing decisions.

Here's the link to the thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/TheLastAirbender/comments/38t5hi/atla_avatar_prince_of_the_fire_nation_part_i_i/

And here's the link to the film [Mega.co.nz link]: https://mega.co.nz/#!B1IxGLQI!NhCGe1m8kEmXCbSnzLHO29r4ne9dVK34naD0-pFfBiY

The same engine that the Xbone was having trouble running on. I knew as soon as the Xbone was shitting itself trying to run PC, the Wii U was probably doomed.

I'd say it be a better idea as stated elsewhere to be a collection of Smash, MK8, and Splatoon competitions. Good way to show off Splatoon as a competitive game and give it more advertisement. MK8 and Smash for obvious reasons.

The old challenges would be a waste of an opportunity I think. The event is supposed to be a treat for gamers and a form of advertisement. Games that are 25 years old don't need advertisement. Splatoon can benefit from this if they used it.

Would the challenges in Smash 4 and MK8 be things like collecting all the coins in a race or knocking out as many NPC fighters in the time limit?

So far in this game, only ObbyDent had a player choose the bomb word he had just selected giving him the opportunity to choose another bomb word again. He's also had the most players killed by choosing 3 bomb words over the course of the game. But, sadly, he didn't make it to the final four despite that advantage. He may end up with the most kills in the game yet unless Stratos can go on a run here or one of the final four contestants can tie him.
Woo!
It's official. You had the most kills this game with Stratos and Nickmitch taking themselves out in these last two rounds.

Yay! I like killing people!
