Som Gamereactor kunde rapportera tidigare i veckan kommer de som vill att kunna gifta sig i kommande spelet Tomodachi Life, förutsatt att man inte vill göra det samkönat. Nu har Nintendo bett om ursäkt för detta och lovar bot och bättring till uppföljaren samt skriver att det inte går att lösa med en enkel patch. Här är hela deras officiella uttalande:
"We apologize for disappointing many people by failing to include same-sex relationships in Tomodachi Life. Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to change this game's design, and such a significant development change can't be accomplished with a post-ship patch. At Nintendo, dedication has always meant going beyond the games to promote a sense of community, and to share a spirit of fun and joy. We are committed to advancing our longtime company values of fun and entertainment for everyone. We pledge that if we create a next installment in the Tomodachi series, we will strive to design a game-play experience from the ground up that is more inclusive, and better represents all players."
