Nintendo should buy Take-Two

In a lot of ways I think Disney is more mature than Nintendo ... any type of romantic relationship in Nintendo's games is usually fairly neutered or kept to an asexual "just friends" minimum, lol.

In The Lion King for example it's fairly obvious (even shown on screen) that Simba "hooks up" with Nala.

Nintendo's really puritan, their ideas on relationships are kinda stuck in a 1950s timewarp, haha. Kid Icarus Uprising was kind of surprising to me in that sense, it kind of tip-toed beyond that and felt a bit more like a 90s Disney cartoon.

It's true that romance doesn't seem to have a place in many of Nintendo's popular franchises (though Paper Mario seems to succeed in a sort of piss-taking way). You'll definitely find more interesting relationships (and just plain better writing) in the niche or second-party efforts.

Yeah I think Nintendo would have a huge problem if the developer wanted to show that Zelda spent the night together with Link "in love" even though this is pretty common even in Disney animated features. Even in an implied fashion.

I can't help but wonder why Mario is allowed to be kissed on the cheek, but the only implication ever made between Link and Zelda was the ending of Zelda II. It's just not fair.
