I still have some hope that a patch will be made for this one though.<br /><br /><br />Also I was watching game play of the DS game and the person playing mentioned that you can have your Miis cross-dress. For the one the west is getting I happy with just being able to make a "female" Mii male but I'm not sure I would feel the same way with the 3rd game.Monster_Hunter2882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-80613656996840511752014-04-28T18:12:57.283-07:002014-04-28T18:12:57.283-07:00Yep, I think Tye did a great job, too. Although I ...Yep, I think Tye did a great job, too. Although I fully support people who refuse to buy or otherwise support this game because of its lack of gay relationships, I don't support any sort of widespread boycott of the game. I think people really have to make up their own minds in this case, and decide for themselves what is acceptable and what isn't when it comes to this release. Other than all of that, I do hope this "movement" reaches the ears of at least a few of Nintendo of America's--and Nintendo of Japan's--higher-ups, and as a result the next time they go to make a game like this the resulting product is a lot more inclusive.thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-72863380705332469652014-04-28T18:05:42.382-07:002014-04-28T18:05:42.382-07:00Great post, Bryan.

Are you suggesting anything LGBT is inherently "adult"? Also, what about LGBT children? What kind of message is Nintendo sending to gay kids by not depicting "their lives" -- which is what this game's marketing materials (so far, at least) so thoroughly promotes -- in a game like this?thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-78718560682822054812014-04-28T10:26:39.903-07:002014-04-28T10:26:39.903-07:00I'm all for gay rights, but I guess they forge...I'm all for gay rights, but I guess they forget that Nintendo is geared mostly to kids.
