Quote:The family is going to tremendous lengths in their demands, they’ve asked Nintendo to require there to be warnings about seizures on the screen while games are in use. They want Nintendo to rank all games according to seizure risk and reformat all their games to reduce the chance of seizures. And as if this wasn’t enough they also want Nintendo to fund a nationwide advertising campaign to inform the public about seizures from games and to institute a refund program so that anybody that wants to get their money back from Nintendo games can do so.
WHOA! You'd think something this serious would have been recognized somewhere along the 20+ years Nintendo has been in this business! How blind we all are! Give me a break. This is all the parents fault and they're being a thorn in Nintendos side to avoid people realizing that. Who bought that console and the game in question? Who didn't read the clear-as-day warning on the inside cover of the manual? Who allowed the child to play this game when they were more than likely aware he was epileptic? All the answers are the same: Mom and Dad.
A nationwide ad campaign about seizures? Nintendo doesn't even have a codified campaign to SELL their games!
