The Nintendo fired someone and it isn't entirely clear as of yet why she was. All that's known is she was recently being targeted as the source of recent "censorship controversy" and large numbers of people were demanding she be fired. Some suggested she was a pedophile, which seems the height of hypocrisy considering that all the recent censorship hangups have been DUE to Nintendo cutting out content that sexualized young girls.

I for one believe the majority of these people demanding a company sacrifice are probably on the younger side. I see a lot of people saying Nintendo USED to put much "edgier" content in their games (as though edginess is what's at issue here), and don't seem to realize just how much worse NOA used to be with their censorship policies. They're as open as they've ever been, but when games seem to explicitly be designed to sexualize underaged girls, that's a problem that needs to be dealt with. These people give me the creeps.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
