Continuing on because that is not even all of it, they flat out said they were not going to try any thing beyond straight white dude, and that they felt it as too much effort to add in other options when customizable charecters was a thing.
This extends all the way back to Assins Creed 3, but fr some reason the shit is only hitting the fan now.
Moving on they killed off Rainbow Six, a long running and moderattly loved francise, saying that singleplayer games are no longer posible.
Oh and they have more draconian DRM then EA.
The best part IMHO, was then thee own art director called them out.

dead devotionOhhhhh right, and they killed a 20 year old developer since they lied to them in there contract and never payed out there royalties, sending them into bankruptcy.
And before saying what about lawsuits, the company was in the red, and needed those royalties to even stick around..... they were promised them, and ubi did not deliver, and well.... since they were in the red, legal action was not an option, since you need money for lawyers.
@ Bcom : No, please share? I keep trying to convince my girlfriend nintendo is no saint either...

it's called Tomadachi life, basically you can have your little avator live a life or something (some of the images I saw included a pagan dance around a Virtual boy along with dressing up as godzilla!) Characters can get married, and at first same sex couples could get married as well. but guess what! Nintendo said that was a glitch and changed it so that now only couples of the opposite sex can be married!
quoting cracked: According to Nintendo, they "never intended to make any form of social commentary," and "The relationship options in the game represent a playful alternate world rather than a real-life simulation" (hence the fact that there are still Virtual Boys in existence in that reality). So, they say, there can't be any same-sex relationships because the game was intended to be "quirky" and "whimsical," two adjectives nobody has ever used to describe John Waters. Nintendo also tried to explain that it was simply impossible to change the code to allow gay marriages — or, you know, the thing that was totally possible before they deleted it.
Now see About Nintendo's thing...
They removed the option of gay couples of the Mii life game for the 3DS. But see it was glitch and never an option in the first place. It was breaking other parts of the game.
You could get onto them for not including it in the first place, but they did say they would include it in future games.
PM box is Closed, Indefinitely Friend Code: 3368-4181-6850

They basically told women and racial minorities to go fuck themselfs when E3 rolled around this year.
Claiming that it was too expensive and would take too much time to add women to the new assassins creed game, when the fucking art director said it would take less then a days work.
The shit storm lasted for a few days, then they did the exact same thing with farcry 4.
