Those are the Xenoblade X censorship complaints I remember.

I don't understand people who get so worked up about every little decision Nintendo makes. I'm a longtime fan, and they've done nothing to upset me. Censorship happens; different regions have different perspectives on what's appropriate or inappropriate. Takedowns? Sure, it's rough to see fans' hard work being knocked off the web, but this is the Internet; files are never lost forever. At least AM2R and Uranium saw release, ensuring that they will persist for the foreseeable future. The only thing I disagree with is the strikes against GilvaSunner. Many Nintendo soundtracks cannot be obtained anymore, so why bother? But even then, that doesn't personally concern me, other than maybe losing some VGM videos I like. Why can't everyone just do what I do, and just accept that Nintendo marches to the beat of their own drum?

this one SHOULD speak for itself but apparently not for some people

Imagine if face touching returns in Fire Emblem 15 and we receive the same treatment from Fates in the Western versions.

Riots would be big.

I might as well ask, but wouldn't this be such a minor thing to riot over that it wouldn't even be worth rioting over?

I'll be too busy being cheesed about the FE15 newcomer in Smash Bros to worry about that.

USA has won gold for 4 x 100 Medley Relay, giving Phelps another gold medal for his final race in the Olympics!

Riots? Don't you mean spamming Metracritic with negative user fan reviews? :troll:

Though if face touching suddenly becomes a Fire Emblem mainstay, then I'm not really expecting Nintendo of America to change their mind when it happens.

You would be right... in theory
In practice, people will find the first thing they see to complain about

I just don't want the child mechanic in the next game

Marriage system can come back but the child system can **** right off because it makes unnecessary characters and really bad units and doesn't make sense from a story sense (unless they do a FE 6/7 remake)

Never underestimate the otaku that want to touch their waifu's faces in the Private Quarters. The conversations we got in the end were alright, but a bit on the short side (depending on the character).

The controversy was big the first time and it would be bigger if it happens the second time.

The sad part is that there's usually legit things to complain about in any given game, but it's always the minor petty things people dwell on.

I'm sure there were plenty of more worthwhile things the Smash fanbase could have focused on than being salty that *insert character here* "stole" a slot that likely wasn't available to whatever character they wanted instead in the first place or fussing over the character selection screen being a mess.

And FE and Xenoblade probably had more important things that needed to be worked on than censorship.

But all the bigger issues will be drowned out by people upset that they didn't get some very specific thing that they personally wanted but overall doesn't influence the quality of the game that much for the average person.

Do you mean both in his game and in Smash?
Most likely. Corrin suffers from having bland lines and taunts in Smash. But that's what they had to stick with to avoid spoiling Fates' story (still didn't stop some like the Omega Yato and such).

On the subject of Fire Emblem itself, I hope they learned from there experience and try writing a story with less problems next time around. Birthright had it easy despite the beginner friendly gameplay while the "hardcore" Conquest had some big hiccups here and there with its writing.

I still find it crazy that every character in Beta (except Sandbag) is going to be starters in the final version.

If the roster is already great now, I can't imagine what they're hiding for unlockables.

Throwing my hat in for tomorrow's SSF2 reveal...Shovel Knight.
And if its Shovel Knight, I ain't mad.

Now I just need to finish the game soon after completing Tokyo Mirage Sessions. Sad how the hyperactive kitten loves disrespecting my Amiibo him everyday. :glare:

Oh yeah I forgot to throw in Shovel Knight as a possibility as the controversial character. He would cause a huge stir with a large fanbase and a large hatebase.

Personally I would hate his inclusion but hey i'm not paying for SSF2 so I can't tell the devs to not put the character in.

Hey, Robin once ate a whole bunch of fiber-nuke seaweed AFTER seeing the toughest woman in their army crumpled on the floor from it.

They're a freaking riot.

Shovel Knight Butt Butt made me remember that there are more than one kind of "controversial".

Which one is still not clear though.

Or Shantae. Or Quote. Or CommanderVideo. Or Meat Boy. Or an Undertale character (probably Sans). Or Minecraft Steve. Or Fez (Because of Phil Fish). Or any indie character in existence.

Large hatebase? Hardly. Pretty much every other site beyond this very thread was in support of Shovel Knight, from what I've seen.

Seriously. This thread was the only place he had a hatebase.

I think these character characters are equally, if not more controversial than the other choices you've listed. Especially Undertale and Minecraft since they are notorious for their rabid loud fandom and detractors think having them anywhere taints what they touch (especially your average Nintendo or Smash related video).

I saw tons of hate for him on YT and other places. Faqs as well but they hate everyone so I guess I can't use them as an example.

And given the comment the devs made about the reveal tomorrow, if it really was Shovel Knight then that must mean there has to be a large hatebase for SK for them to make that comment otherwise he wouldn't be "controversial".
