In an interview, Reggie took a different approach than what we've seen from other developers and companies. Their solution to politics and video games is a simple, yet effective method. Instead of trying to address the issues, they'd rather ignore them and let gaming stay enjoyable for everyone.

"Making political statements are for other people to do. We want people to smile and have fun when they play our games." ~Reggie

A noble pursuit. Good to hear.

Let's just remember that just because some companies unneccessarily comment on politics in an unhealthy and awkward way, doesn't mean that Video Games can't delve into politics in new and interesting ways. I'm all for video games being a seperate entity where people go to escape reality, but expression in media isn't inherintely bad either. It's just that most companies that inject politics into gaming, do it so, so poorly.

Politics turn you into a miserable pile of shit. In a world dominated by politics, that's such a positive message and one of the reasons I stand by companies like Nintendo.

I love it. I am so glad they don't shove any political ideas down our throats as consumers, like so many other companies such as Bioware do. Let games be games.

As a trans-Koopa, I am highly offended by Nintendo's software and its defamation of my Koopa kind.

Maybe don't let weapons break after 3 hits if you want people to have fun playing your games.

Their censorship in the U.S, is usually invovling putting more clothes on girls younger than 18.

That's hardly political.

I think he meant in a way that wasnt intended by the developer.If the developer wanted to put something that isnt politically correct to be a part of the story and to make people think, then Nintendo will do it.But if it was a decision, to lets say make an all black cast of characters, just because "Black Live Matters" and it wasnt a decision made with the game in mind(in another words, just because the publishers or developer cares about that political aspect but has nothing to do with what the game is trying to say) then thats what Nintendo is going to get away from.

Thats my take on it, anyways.

Reggie is trying to run a business. He is not running for president. So making political statements would be a stupid decision.
