"No Chainsaw for us"

Amid fears of another 'Daily Mail - MANHUNT!! DEATH!!! VIOLENCE IN GAMES!!' feature on Resident Evil 4's release, Nintendo have issued a statement regarding the chainsaw controller to ensure they've covered themselves pre-release: -

According to reports Nintendo have already had tabloids complaining about the gore in the game, after the summer's big ill-informed propaganda regarding Manhunt. To make sure Nintendo do not suffer bad press they have issued a statement.

"The chainsaw controller is not a Nintendo product, nor is it licensed by Nintendo. As a company, we have a wide range of consumers, and we publish and distribute a correspondingly wide range of games for all consumer's tastes. Nintendo fully supports and adheres to age rating guidelines and we ensure each one of our products is marketed appropriately."

A spokesperson for Capcom commented on the issue, "Capcom has no plans to distribute the Nubytech Chainsaw Controller in the UK at this time."

In a general sense though, sex sells more than violence. No one gets hurt (really) in sex.

I thought I was verging on making an obvious statement but you've gone one better.
