Nintendo News | Animal Crossing DS Breeds Foul Mouth Fowl

By Jorge Ba-oh 11.05.2007 10

A protective parent has run riot in a bid to stop Nintendo and their evil foul mouth critters in Animal Crossing influencing her daughter with shiny blue-coloured swears.

The latest case of gaming parenting comes from a young 11-year-old lass in Scotland who, whilst enjoying exploring her town in Animal Crossing DS, was called a "fucking cow" by one of the characters, as featured in the London Metro newspaper.

A Nintendo UK representative insisted that none of the company's family friendly titles features any offensive language, adding "It is either a pirate copy or it is user-inputted text." Most likely a used copy or an attention-seeking girl already clued up in the ancient art of le-swear.

Be sure to stick around for updates..

All my animals speak obscenities also, but then i did imput them.

Strange though as you cannot imput the F word without it turning to asterix expletives.

It must be a second hand copy, or perhaps it's a case of a bored mother looking for a story to sell. LS

What if she had been online, and the character had come from someone else's town?

Add me on anything. I'm always looking for new friends/opponents/town visitors/chances to appear more popular than I actually am.

When I read this story I was apalled that such a claim could be made. The writer had no idea about how the game worked, which really annoyed me!

It was so obviously put in by an older brother or was a second hand copy - such a piece of non-news for the media to pick up on.
