So since people are evidently too lazy to even use DeepL, this is what's being said.
>Nintendo has entrusted a third-party organization with the task of providing objective ratings for its own products and third-party software prior to its release.
>Arbitrary selection by the platform operator would seriously impede the diversity and fairness of game software.
>The parental control function also allows for restrictions to be put in place.
Furukawa said this at an investor meeting in 2019, at the height of the controversy over Sony's censorship. From then on, the Switch became the new preferred haven for games and developers spurned by Sony's new content policies. However, in the last year and a half, Nintendo has started to backtrack and adopt the same behavior as Sony. Recently, IGN published an article in which Nintendo seems to have officially disclosed the existence of new content policies. It is misleading since it claims it is primarily targeted at "slop" games, presumably referring to the AI "Hentai" asset flips clogging up the e-shop, but as you can see in
>>715527759, it has affected a slew of actual games by established developers, who seemingly have no recourse. So in light of all this, when will Furukawa be called out for basically misleading all these devs just to pull the rug on them?
