Nintendo - seller of games to children, or evil child corruptor?
Take doom for GBA. In its day, doom was the most violent game ever made. It was resident evil and half life in one.
Even today people try to use it as an example of a 'bad' game.
All nintendo have done to make sure they can sell this game to little 5 year olds is make the blood green and the bodies fade. Toddlers will still be chain gun cha-cha ing imps to death, and playing with the BFG. No one under 8 should be allowed near this game. There is a limit people. I wouldnt let my little nephew play resident evil, it would mess him up ALOT. Censorship is over done these days, but small children do need protecting.

okay, but what's it got to do with ninty? Just cos it is their console? Doom is on Playstation too y know!
yum!
green blood.
green blood.
Nice point, simply turning the blood green doesn't make it any less violent. I remember Mortal KOmbat on the MegaDrive, with the green blood. i remember telling my mum it wasn't the 'violent version', but when she saw me basically kicking the hell out of someone she damn near had a fit. Content is content, regardless of the colour of blood.
