Parents soiling their trousers over a Nintendo game
Angry parents are in fits over Nintendo's decision to release the peripheral for the family-orientated console. "Great, this is what we need," said one furious parent blogger. "Children with guns learning how to aim and shoot. Then we can sit back and wonder what is happening to our country with kids killing kids."
Yeah, just what we need. Kids playing games that require aiming and pulling a trigger. Because in the grand scheme of things, it is OK to buy a Playstation and use a joystick to simulate murdering cops and prostitutes, so long as you controller isn't gun-shaped.
FYI folks, my very first Nintendo Entertainment System came with a bright orange gun that actually almost looked like a gun. It was used for duck hunt... a game where you shoot at ducks or clays. Those were the days of honest, wholesome games. I grew up playing Duck Hunt, and it certainly didn't turn me into a ravenous murderer.
Favorite Suzy Soccer-mom quote:
Why don't they enclose an application to the NRA (National Rifle Association) in every box as well?
Hmmmmmmm... ya know, that's a great idea! |
