So, basically, we're not getting this game here. (Captain Rainbow)
...Wow.
So.
We basically have two possibilities here.
1. As everyone suspects, we'll NEVER SEE THIS GAME in the United States.
OR:
2. Rather than finding a vibrating "?", we'll have to prove some American stereotype about women. For example, that:
-Birdo is cooking a delicious Thanksgiving Dinner
-Birdo is a member of the PTA
-Birdo drives her kids to Soccer Practice
-Birdo doesn't play video games
-Birdo owns a hairbrush
-Birdo owns a duster, or a vacuum
...um, maybe Birdo subscribes to Cosmo?
Whatever the case, I think a buzzing question mark beneath a pillow is not quite enough censorship to keep the ESRB from raising an eyebrow or three. Three being a slightly less than arbitrary number, apparently that is the number of "professional raters" the ESRB assigns to decide the descriptors and such. And you never raise both eyebrows in the context I mentioned, that'd just look silly. So three.
So.
Discuss my rant.
It fuels my ego. :cool:
